18. If there exist configurations x such that (Formula presented) and (Formula presented), it is computationally convenient to regularize the given guiding function by adding to it a random noise which may be arbitrarily small within computer accuracy, thus preventing the above pathology with probability 1. By reducing this noise to zero the “clean” limit can be easily achieved without too much effort or complicated changes in the algorithm (Ref. 15).

20. In this paper we adopt a more general definition for a Slater determinant, as any state which is an eigenstate of a one-body Hamiltonian, not necessarily commuting with the particle number.

23. This is strictly valid provided G is a positive-definite operator, which generally holds for large enough (Formula presented). In fact, by the Schwartz inequality, it is simple to show that the expectation value of the energy on (Formula presented) is lower than or at most equal to the one over (Formula presented)
