The chapters in this monograph are contributions from the Advances in Quantum Monte Carlo symposium held at Pacifichem 2010, International Chemical Congress of Pacific Basin Societies. The symposium was dedicated to celebrate the career of James B. Anderson, a notable researcher in the field.Quantum Monte Carlo provides an ab initio solution to the Schroedinger equation by performing a random walk through configuration space in imaginary time. Benchmark calculations suggest that its most commonlyused variant, "fixednode" diffusion Monte Carlo, estimates energies with an accuracycomparable to that of highlevel coupledcluster calculations. These two methods, each having advantages and disadvantages, are complementary "goldstandards" of quantum chemistry.There are challenges facing researchers in the field, several of which are addressed in the chapters in this monograph. These include improving the accuracy and precision of quantum Monte Carlo calculations; understanding the exchange nodes and utilizing the simulated electron distribution;extending the method to large and/or experimentallychallenging systems; and developing hybrid molecular mechanics/dynamics and Monte Carlo algorithms.
