Density‐matrix spectra for integrable models

Ingo Peschel, Matthias Kaulke, Örs Legeza

Published Feb 1, 1999• 24 citations

Abstract

Abstract The spectra which occur in numerical density‐matrix renormalization group (DMRG) calculations for quantum chains can be obtained analytically for integrable models via corner transfer matrices. This is shown in detail for the transverse Ising chain and the uniaxial XXZ Heisenberg model and explains in particular their exponential character in these cases.

Density Matrices for a Chain of Oscillators

Ingo Peschel, Ming-Chiang Chung, Fachbereich Physik Freie Universität

We consider chains with an optical phonon spectrum and study the reduced density matrices which occur in density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) calculations. Both for one site and for half of the chain, these are found to be exponentials of bosonic operators. Their spectra, which are correspondingly exponential, are determined and discussed. The results for large systems are obtained from the relation to a two-dimensional Gaussian model. 1

Real-Space Renormalization Group Approach for the Corner Hamiltonian

Kouichi Okunishi

We present a real-space renormalization group approach for the corner Hamiltonian, which is relevant to the reduced density matrix in the density matrix renormalization group. A set of self-consistent equations that the renormalized Hamiltonian should satisfy in the thermodynamic limit is also derived from the fixed point of the recursion relation for the corner Hamiltonian. We demonstrate the renormalization group algorithm for the $S=1/2$ XXZ spin chain and show that the results are consistent with the exact solution. We further examine the renormalization group for the S=1 Heisenberg spin chain and then discuss the nature of the eigenvalue spectrum of the corner Hamiltonian for the non-integrable model.

QUANTUM CORNER — TRANSFER MATRIX DMRG

Erik Bartel, Andreas Schadschneider

We propose a new method for the calculation of thermodynamic properties of one-dimensional quantum systems by combining the TMRG approach with the corner transfer-matrix method. The corner transfer-matrix DMRG method brings reasonable advantage over TMRG for classical systems. We have modified the concept for the calculation of thermal properties of one-dimensional quantum systems. The novel QCTMRG algorithm is implemented and used to study two simple test cases, the classical Ising chain and the isotropic Heisenberg model. In a discussion, the advantages and challenges are illuminated.
