The seniority quantum number in Tensor Network States

Klaas Gunst, Dimitri Van Neck, Peter A. Limacher +1 more

We employ tensor network methods for the study of the seniority quantum number – defined as the number of unpaired electrons in a many-body wave function – in molecular systems. Seniority-zero methods recently emerged as promising candidates to treat strong static correlations in molecular systems, but are prone to deficiencies related to dynamical correlation and dispersion. We systematically resolve these deficiencies by increasing the allowed seniority number using tensor network methods. In particular, we investigate the number of unpaired electrons needed to correctly describe the binding of the neon and nitrogen dimer and the \mathbf{D_{6h}} D 6 h symmetry of benzene.We employ tensor network methods for the study of the seniority quantum number – defined as the number of unpaired electrons in a many-body wave function – in molecular systems.

Nonperturbative Methods in Quantum Field Theory

Mari Carmen Bañuls

*Theory Colloquium* The term Tensor Network States (TNS) designates a number of ansatzes that can efficiently represent certain states of quantum many-body systems. In particular, ground states and thermal equilibrium of local Hamiltonians, and, to some extent, real time evolution can be numerically studied with TNS methods. Quantum information theory provides tools to understand why they are good ansatzes for physically relevant states, and some of the limitations connected to the simulation algorithms. Originally introduced in the context of condensed matter physics, these methods have become a state-of-the-art technique for strongly correlated one-dimensional systems. Their applicability extends nevertheless to other fields. As an example, in the last few years it has been shown that TNS are also suitable to study lattice gauge theories and other quantum field problems. This talk gives an overview of the possibilities and limitations of these methods, and some of their recent applications to this kind of problems.*Theory Colloquium* The term Tensor Network States (TNS) designates a number of ansatzes that can efficiently represent certain states of quantum many-body systems.

Generalized Lanczos method for systematic optimization of tensor network states

Rui-Zhen Huang, Haijun Liao, Zhiyuan Liu +5 more

We propose a generalized Lanczos method to generate the many-body basis states of quantum lattice models using tensor-network states (TNS). The ground-state wave function is represented as a linear superposition composed from a set of TNS generated by Lanczos iteration. This method improves significantly the accuracy of the tensor-network algorithm and provides an effective way to enlarge the maximal bond dimension of TNS. The ground state such obtained contains significantly more entanglement than each individual TNS, reproducing correctly the logarithmic size dependence of the entanglement entropy in a critical system. The method can be generalized to non-Hamiltonian systems and to the calculation of low-lying excited states, dynamical correlation functions, and other physical properties of strongly correlated systems.We propose a generalized Lanczos method to generate the many-body basis states of quantum lattice models using tensor-network states (TNS).
