Abstract

We apply the higher order tensor renormalization group to two and three dimensional relativistic fermion systems on the lattice. In order to perform a coarse-graining of tensor networks including Grassmann variables, we introduce Grassmann higher order tensor renormalization group. We test the validity of the new algorithm by comparing its results with those of exact or previous methods.

Tensor renormalization group approach to higher dimensional fermions

Ryo Sakai, Shinji Takeda

We apply the higher order tensor renormalization group to two and three dimensional lattice fermion systems. To deal with tensor networks including Grassmann variables, we introduce Grassmann higher order tensor renormalization group (GHOTRG). Thanks to its deterministic property, GHOTRG is perfectly free of the sign problem. To test the validity of the new algorithm, we analyze well-known systems such as the Thirring model using GHOTRG.

Calculation of fermionic Green functions with Grassmann higher-order tensor renormalization group

Yusuke Yoshimura, Y. Kuramashi, Yoshifumi Nakamura +2 more

We develop a calculational method for fermionic Green functions in the framework of Grassmann higher-order tensor renormalization group. The validity of the method is tested by applying it to the three-dimensional free Wilson fermion system. We compare the numerical results for the chiral condensate and two-point correlation functions with the exact ones obtained by analytical methods.

Tensor renormalization group for fermions

Shinichiro Akiyama, Yannick Meurice, Ryo Sakai

We review the basic ideas of the tensor renormalization group method and show how they can be applied for lattice field theory models involving relativistic fermions and Grassmann variables in arbitrary dimensions. We discuss recent progress for entanglement filtering, loop optimization, bond-weighting techniques and matrix product decompositions for Grassmann tensor networks. The new methods are tested with two-dimensional Wilson-Majorana fermions and multi-flavor Gross-Neveu models. We show that the methods can also be applied to the fermionic Hubbard model in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions.

Improved coarse-graining methods for two dimensional tensor networks including fermions

Muhammad Asaduzzaman, Simon M. Catterall, Yannick Meurice +2 more

Abstract We show how to apply renormalization group algorithms incorporating entanglement filtering methods and a loop optimization to a tensor network which includes Grassmann variables which represent fermions in an underlying lattice field theory. As a numerical test a variety of quantities are calculated for two dimensional Wilson-Majorana fermions and for the two flavor Gross-Neveu model. The improved algorithms show much better accuracy for quantities such as the free energy and the determination of Fisher’s zeros.

Tensor network algorithm by coarse-graining tensor renormalization on finite periodic lattices

Hui‐Hai Zhao, Z. Y. Xie, Tao Xiang +1 more

We develop coarse-graining tensor renormalization group algorithms to compute physical properties of two-dimensional lattice models on finite periodic lattices. Two different coarse-graining strategies, one based on the tensor renormalization group and the other based on the higher-order tensor renormalization group, are introduced. In order to optimize the tensor network model globally, a sweeping scheme is proposed to account for the renormalization effect from the environment tensors under the framework of second renormalization group. We demonstrate the algorithms by the classical Ising model on the square lattice and the Kitaev model on the honeycomb lattice, and show that the finite-size algorithms achieve substantially more accurate results than the corresponding infinite-size ones.

Grassmann higher-order tensor renormalization group approach for two-dimensional strong-coupling QCD

Jacques Bloch, Robert Lohmayer

We present a tensor-network approach for two-dimensional strong-coupling QCD with staggered quarks at nonzero chemical potential. After integrating out the gauge fields at infinite coupling, the partition function can be written as a full contraction of a tensor network consisting of coupled local numeric and Grassmann tensors. To evaluate the partition function and to compute observables, we develop a Grassmann higher-order tensor renormalization group method, specifically tailored for this model. During the coarsening procedure, the blocking of adjacent Grassmann tensors is performed analytically, and the total number of Grassmann variables in the tensor network is reduced by a factor of two at each coarsening step. The coarse-site numeric tensors are truncated using higher-order singular value decompositions. The method is validated by comparing the partition function, the chiral condensate and the baryon density computed with the tensor method with exact analytical results on small lattices up to volumes of 4×4. For larger volumes, we present first tensor results for the chiral condensate as a function of the mass and volume, and observe that the chiral symmetry is not broken dynamically in two dimensions. We also present tensor results for the number density as a function of the chemical potential, which hint at a first-order phase transition.
