ALF 2.6 released

The latest stable version of the package is now ALF 2.6.

Major improvements have been made to the package’s maximum entropy method (MaxEnt), including:

  • an implementation of the classic, Bayesian-based MaxEnt, besides the standard stochastic MaxEnt
  • facilities for the easy calculation of quantities such as susceptibilities and quantum Fisher information

An important internal change is the Hubbard Stratonovich fields now being implemented as complex variables instead of real — notice this is a compatibility breaking change.

The new version comprises further minor changes and bug fixes. Check the CHANGELOG and documentation for further details.
