To calculate the probabilistic averages, an artificial (mathematical) ``particle'' called walker (or psi-particle) is introduced.
During the Monte Carlo simulation, the walker moves in configuration space by drawing new states with
probability $p_{i_k \to i_{k+1}}$, thus realizing the path of probability $\text{Prob}_{i_0}$.
%In this framework, the energy defined in Eq.~\eqref{eq:E0} is given by
%\be
% E_0 = \lim_{N \to \infty }
% \frac{ \expval{ \prod_{k=0}^{N-1} w_{i_{k}i_{k+1}} {(H\PsiT)}_{i_N}} }
% { \expval{ \prod_{k=0}^{N-1} w_{i_{k}i_{k+1}} {\PsiT}_{i_N} }}.
%\ee
%A schematic algorithm is presented in Fig.\ref{scheme1B}.
Note that, instead of using a single walker, it is common to introduce a population of independent walkers and to calculate the averages over this population.
In addition, thanks to the ergodic property of the stochastic matrix (see, for example, Ref.~\onlinecite{Caffarel_1988}), a unique path of infinite length from which sub-paths of length $N$ can be extracted may also be used.
We shall not insist here on these practical details that are discussed, for example, in Refs.~\onlinecite{Foulkes_2001,Kolorenc_2011}.
