We have used the projector quantum Monte Carlo method to study the mag
netic properties of the two-dimensional Hubbard model at half-filling
as a function of the on-site repulsion U. Applying spin-density waves
as initial trial state, we obtain excellent convergence of the algorit
hm for the case of weak and of strong correlations. This choice allows
us to calculate directly the staggered (or sublattice) magnetization
m(0) as a function of U.
