Chebyshev pseudosite matrix product state approach for cluster perturbation theory

Abstract

We introduce the Chebyshev pseudosite matrix product state approach (ChePSMPS) as a solver for cluster perturbation theory (CPT), crucial for simulating spectral functions in two-dimensional electron-phonon ($e$-ph) coupling systems. ChePSMPS distinguishes itself from conventional exact diagonalization solvers by supporting larger clusters, thereby significantly mitigating finite-size effects. Free from the fermion sign problem, ChePSMPS enhances its ability to explore $e$-ph effects and generate high-resolution spectral functions in doped Mott insulators. We use this method to simulate the spectra for both one- and two-dimensional Hubbard-Holstein models, highlighting its superiority over other methods. Our findings validate ChePSMPS as a powerful and reliable Green's function solver. In conjunction with embedding methods, ChePSMPS emerges as an essential tool for simulating strongly correlated $e$-ph coupling systems.

Chebyshev pseudosite matrix product state approach for the spectral functions of electron-phonon coupling systems

Pei-Yuan Zhao, Ke Ding, Shuo Yang

The electron-phonon $(e\text{\ensuremath{-}}\mathrm{ph})$ coupling system often has a large number of phonon degrees of freedom, whose spectral functions are numerically difficult to compute using matrix product state (MPS) formalisms. To solve this problem, we propose a practical method that combines the Chebyshev MPS and the pseudosite density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm. The Chebyshev vector is represented by a pseudosite MPS with global $U(1)$ fermion symmetry, which maps ${2}^{{N}_{p}}$ bosonic degrees of freedom onto ${N}_{p}$ pseudosites, each with two states. This approach can handle arbitrary $e$-ph coupling Hamiltonians where pseudosite DMRG performs efficiently. We use this method to study the spectral functions of the doped extended Hubbard-Holstein model in a regime of strong Coulomb repulsion. Key features of the excitation spectra are captured at a modest computational cost. Our results show that weak extended $e$-ph couplings can increase the spectral weight of the holon-folding branch at low phonon frequencies, in agreement with angle-resolved photoemission observations on one-dimensional cuprates.

Matrix product state based band Lanczos solver for quantum cluster approaches

Sebastian Paeckel, Thomas Köhler, Salvatore R. Manmana +1 more

We present a matrix-product state (MPS) based band Lanczos method as solver for quantum cluster methods such as the variational cluster approximation. While a naïve implementation of MPS as cluster solver would barely improve its range of applicability, we show that our approach makes it possible to treat cluster geometries well beyond the reach of exact diagonalization methods. The key modifications we introduce are a continuous energy truncation combined with a convergence criterion that is more robust against approximation errors introduced by the MPS representation and provides a bound to deviations in the resulting Green's function. The potential of the resulting cluster solver is demonstrated by computing the self-energy functional for the single-band Hubbard model at half filling in the strongly correlated regime, on different cluster geometries. Here, we find that only when treating large cluster sizes, observables can be extrapolated to the thermodynamic limit, which we demonstrate at the example of the staggered magnetization. Treating clusters sizes with up to 6 × 6 sites we obtain significant improvement over the extrapolation accessible with exact diagonalization solvers when comparing with quantum Monte Carlo results. Finally, we illustrate the applicability of the MPS cluster solver to more complex models by calculating spectral properties as relevant for the electron-doped cuprate CaCuO 2 .

Spectral function of electron-phonon models by cluster perturbation theory

Martin Hohenadler, Markus Aichhorn, Wolfgang von der Linden

Cluster perturbation theory in combination with the Lanczos method is used to compute the one-electron spectral function of the Holstein polaron in one and two dimensions. It is shown that the method allows reliable calculations using relatively small clusters, and at the same time significantly reduces finite-size effects. Results are compared with exact data and the relation to existing work is discussed. We also use a strong-coupling perturbation theory---equivalent to the Hubbard I approximation---to calculate the spectral function of the quarter-filled Holstein model of spinless fermions, starting from the exact atomic-limit Green function. The results agree well with previous calculations within the many-body coherent potential approximation.

Chebyshev matrix product states with canonical orthogonalization for spectral functions of strongly correlated systems

Tong Jiang, Jiajun Ren, Zhigang Shuai

We propose a method to calculate the spectral functions of strongly correlated systems by Chebyshev expansion in the framework of matrix product states coupled with canonical orthogonalization (coCheMPS). The canonical orthogonalization can improve the accuracy and efficiency significantly because the orthogonalized Chebyshev vectors can provide an ideal basis for constructing the effective Hamiltonian in which the exact recurrence relation can be retained. In addition, not only the spectral function but also the excited states and eigen energies can be directly calculated, which is usually impossible for other MPS-based methods such as time-dependent formalism or correction vector. The remarkable accuracy and efficiency of coCheMPS over other methods are demonstrated by calculating the spectral functions of spin chain and ab initio hydrogen chain. We demonstrate for the first time that Chebyshev MPS can be used in quantum chemistry. We also caution the application for electron-phonon system with densed density of states.

Chebyshev matrix product state approach for spectral functions

Andreas Holzner, Andreas Weichselbaum, Ian P. McCulloch +2 more

We show that recursively generated Chebyshev expansions offer numerically efficient representations for calculating zero-temperature spectral functions of one-dimensional lattice models using matrix product state (MPS) methods. The main features of this Chebyshev matrix product state (CheMPS) approach are as follows: (i) it achieves uniform resolution over the spectral function's entire spectral width; (ii) it can exploit the fact that the latter can be much smaller than the model's many-body bandwidth; (iii) it offers a well-controlled broadening scheme that allows finite-size effects to be either resolved or smeared out, as desired; (iv) it is based on using MPS tools to recursively calculate a succession of Chebyshev vectors $|{t}_{n}\ensuremath{\rangle}$, (v) the entanglement entropies of which were found to remain bounded with increasing recursion order $n$ for all cases analyzed here; and (vi) it distributes the total entanglement entropy that accumulates with increasing $n$ over the set of Chebyshev vectors $|{t}_{n}\ensuremath{\rangle}$, which need not be combined into a single vector. In this way, the growth in entanglement entropy that usually limits density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) approaches is packaged into conveniently manageable units. We present zero-temperature CheMPS results for the structure factor of spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chains and perform a detailed finite-size analysis. Making comparisons to three benchmark methods, we find that CheMPS (a) yields results comparable in quality to those of correction-vector DMRG, at dramatically reduced numerical cost; (b) agrees well with Bethe ansatz results for an infinite system, within the limitations expected for numerics on finite systems; and (c) can also be applied in the time domain, where it has potential to serve as a viable alternative to time-dependent DMRG (in particular, at finite temperatures). Finally, we present a detailed error analysis of CheMPS for the case of the noninteracting resonant level model.

Chebyshev Matrix Product States with Canonical Orthogonalization for Spectral Functions of Many-Body Systems

The remarkable accuracy and efficiency of coCheMPS over other methods are demonstrated by calculating the spectral functions of spin chain and ab initio hydrogen chain. For the first time we demonstrate that Chebyshev MPS can be used to deal with ab initio electronic Hamiltonian effectively. We emphasize the strength of coCheMPS to calculate the low excited states of systems with sparse discrete spectrum. We also caution the application for electron-phonon systems with dense density of states.
