51. We note that the variational wave function proposed by Baeriswyl [D. Baeriswyl: in Nonlinearity on Condensed Matter, ed. A. R. Bishop et al. (Springer, Berlin, 1987) Springer Series in Solis State Sciences Vol. 69, p. 183;
52. D. Eichenberger and D. Baeriswyl: Phys. Rev. B 76 (2007) 180504] is more accurate than our results in small U/t and small cluster systems.
53. s, n) = (20, 16, 1) and (4, 64, 1) systems, respectively. It is difficult to improve systematically by introducing additional Gutzwiller-Jastrow factors, because the MC sampling of the former is based on the Stratonovich-Hubbard transformation. Our improvements offer accurate variational wave functions even in systems with large U/t and/or geometrical frustration effects.
