Analyze Results
Inputs
- Directory containing
bin_*.h5files (completed simulations) - Observable names (see table below)
Outputs
- Dictionary with parameters and
(mean, stderr)tuples for each observable
Procedure
Basic analysis:
from dqmc_util import analyze_hub
data = analyze_hub.get("data/run/", "sign", "den", "zzr")
print(f"sign = {data['sign'][0]:.4f} +/- {data['sign'][1]:.4f}")
print(f"density = {data['den'][0]:.4f} +/- {data['den'][1]:.4f}")
Available observables:
| Name | Description | Requires |
|------|-------------|----------|
| sign | Fermion sign | - |
| den | Density <n> | - |
| docc | Double occupancy <n_up n_down> | - |
| gr, gk | Green's function (real/k-space) | - |
| nnr, nnq | Density correlator / structure factor | - |
| zzr, zzq | Spin-z correlator / structure factor | - |
| xxr | Spin-x correlator | - |
| swq0 | S-wave pair structure factor | - |
| nnrw0, zzrw0 | Zero-freq susceptibilities | period_uneqlt > 0 |
| dwq0t | D-wave pair susceptibility | period_uneqlt > 0 |
Collect from multiple directories:
import os
def collect_results(base_dir, observables):
results = []
for subdir in sorted(os.listdir(base_dir)):
path = os.path.join(base_dir, subdir)
if os.path.isdir(path):
try:
results.append(analyze_hub.get(path + "/", *observables))
except Exception as e:
print(f"Skipping {path}: {e}")
return results
Compute derived quantities:
# Magnetic moment squared from spin correlator
path = "data/run/"
data = analyze_hub.get(path, "zzr")
mz2 = 4 * data["zzr"][0][0, 0] # [0] = mean, shape (Ny, Nx)
mz2_err = 4 * data["zzr"][1][0, 0] # [1] = stderr
Validation
- [ ] Errorbar on sign is significantly less than mean. Otherwise, sign problem is too severe.
- [ ] Errorbars on observable are reasonable (not >> mean)
Failure Modes
| Symptom | Cause | Recovery |
|---------|-------|----------|
| KeyError for observable | Observable not computed | Check period_uneqlt setting |
| "No files found" | Wrong path or no bin_*.h5 | Verify directory structure |
| Large error bars | Insufficient statistics | Run more sweeps or bins |
