Abstract

We present a numerically exact continuous-time quantum Monte Carlo algorithm for fermions with a general interaction nonlocal in space-time. The new determinantal grand-canonical scheme is based on a stochastic series expansion for the partition function in the interaction representation. The method is particularly applicable for multiband, time-dependent correlations since it does not invoke the Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation. The test calculations for exactly solvable models, as well results for the Green function and for the time-dependent susceptibility of the multiband supersymmetric model with a spin-flip interaction are discussed.
