SeeMPS: A Python-based Matrix Product State and Tensor Train Library

Paula García-Molina, Juan José Rodríguez-Aldavero, Jorge Gidi +1 more

We introduce SeeMPS, a Python library dedicated to implementing tensor network algorithms based on the well-known Matrix Product States (MPS) and Quantized Tensor Train (QTT) formalisms. SeeMPS is implemented as a complete finite precision linear algebra package where exponentially large vector spaces are compressed using the MPS/TT formalism. It enables both low-level operations, such as vector addition, linear transformations, and Hadamard products, as well as high-level algorithms, including the approximation of linear equations, eigenvalue computations, and exponentially efficient Fourier transforms. This library can be used for traditional quantum many-body physics applications and also for quantum-inspired numerical analysis problems, such as solving PDEs, interpolating and integrating multidimensional functions, sampling multivariate probability distributions, etc.

Learning tensor networks with tensor cross interpolation: New algorithms and libraries

Y. Núñez-Fernández, Marc K. Ritter, Matthieu Jeannin +8 more

The tensor cross interpolation (TCI) algorithm is a rank-revealing algorithm for decomposing low-rank, high-dimensional tensors into tensor trains/matrix product states (MPS). TCI learns a compact MPS representation of the entire object from a tiny training data set. Once obtained, the large existing MPS toolbox provides exponentially fast algorithms for performing a large set of operations. We discuss several improvements and variants of TCI. In particular, we show that replacing the cross interpolation by the partially rank-revealing LU decomposition yields a more stable and more flexible algorithm than the original algorithm. We also present two open source libraries, xfac in Python/C++ and TensorCrossInterpolation.jl in Julia, that implement these improved algorithms, and illustrate them on several applications. These include sign-problem-free integration in large dimension, the “superhigh-resolution” quantics representation of functions, the solution of partial differential equations, the superfast Fourier transform, the computation of partition functions, and the construction of matrix product operators.

Efficient numerical simulations with Tensor Networks: Tensor Network Python (TeNPy)

Johannes Hauschild, Frank Pollmann

Tensor product state (TPS) based methods are powerful tools to efficiently simulate quantum many-body systems in and out of equilibrium. In particular, the one-dimensional matrix-product (MPS) formalism is by now an established tool in condensed matter theory and quantum chemistry. In these lecture notes, we combine a compact review of basic TPS concepts with the introduction of a versatile tensor library for Python (TeNPy) [1]. As concrete examples, we consider the MPS based time-evolving block decimation and the density matrix renormalization group algorithm. Moreover, we provide a practical guide on how to implement abelian symmetries (e.g., a particle number conservation) to accelerate tensor operations.
