Popis: Practical applications of the real-space diffusion Monte Carlo (DMC) method require the removal of core electrons, where currently localization approximations of semilocal potentials are generally used in the projector. Accurate calculations of complex solids and large molecules demand minimizing the impact of approximated atomic cores. Prior works have shown that the errors from such approximations can be sizable in both finite and periodic systems. In this work, we show that a class of differential pseudopotentials, known as pseudo-Hamiltonians, can be constructed for the 3
