Thermodynamic Limit of Density Matrix Renormalization

Abstract: The density matrix renormalization group (\DMRG") discovered by White has shown to be a powerful method to understand the properties of many one dimensional quantum systems. In the case where renormalization eventually converges to a xed point we show that quantum states in the thermodynamic limit with periodic boundary conditions can be simply represented by a special type of product ground state with a natural description of Bloch states of elementary excitations that are spin-1 solitons. We then observe tha… Show more

“…One means of extending the DMRG method to classical systems is by mapping a twodimensional (2D) classical system to a 1D quantum spin system [59] by use of the transfer matrix [60] together with the Suzuki-Trotter formula [61]. Such a method was developed by Nishino et al for an infinite lattice, and is called the product-wave-function renormalization group (PWFRG) method [62]- [64]. For the calculations in the present paper, we also adopt the PWFRG method.…”

“…The theory of entanglement has yielded tools to quantify quantum correlation, 3 as well as a theoretical framework for the understanding of the DMRG, 4 and the development of algorithms to deal with problems in higher dimensions, 5 and also to describe time evolution, systems at finite temperature and quantum dissipation. 6,7 DMRG is a variational method over the class of matrix product states, 4,8 which correspond to the one-dimensional ͑1D͒ realization of the more general projected entangled pair states ͑PEPS͒ introduced in Ref. 5.…”

“…The observation that for physical systems only minor part of the Hilbert space is involved [30], resulted in the rapid development of numerical methods based on a variational method within the space of MPS. It corresponds to assigning a finite entanglement content to spins in the ground state.…”
