A package for creating the matrix product state of a free fermion (Gaussian) state.
Installation
The package is currently unregistered. To install it, first install Julia, start the Julia REPL by typing julia at your command line, and run the command:
julia>]
pkg> add https://github.com/ITensor/ITensorGaussianMPS.jl#mainExamples
This can help create starting states for DMRG. For example:
using ITensors
using ITensorGaussianMPS
# Half filling
N = 20
Nf = N÷2
@show N, Nf
# Hopping
t = 1.0
# Free fermion hopping Hamiltonian
h = Hermitian(diagm(1 => fill(-t, N-1), -1 => fill(-t, N-1)))
_, u = eigen(h)
# Get the Slater determinant
Φ = u[:, 1:Nf]
# Create an mps for the free fermion ground state
s = siteinds("Fermion", N; conserve_qns = true)
ψ0 = slater_determinant_to_mps(s, Φ; blocksize = 4)
# Make an interacting Hamiltonian
U = 1.0
@show U
ampo = AutoMPO()
for b in 1:N-1
ampo .+= -t,"Cdag",b,"C",b+1
ampo .+= -t,"Cdag",b+1,"C",b
end
for b in 1:N
ampo .+= U, "Cdag*C", b
end
H = MPO(ampo, s)
println("\nFree fermion starting energy")
@show inner(ψ0, H, ψ0)
# Random starting state
ψr = randomMPS(s, n -> n ≤ Nf ? "1" : "0")
println("\nRandom state starting energy")
@show inner(ψr, H, ψr)
println("\nRun dmrg with random starting state")
sweeps = Sweeps(10)
maxdim!(sweeps,10,20,40,60)
cutoff!(sweeps,1E-12)
@time dmrg(H, ψr, sweeps)
println("\nRun dmrg with free fermion starting state")
sweeps = Sweeps(4)
maxdim!(sweeps,60)
cutoff!(sweeps,1E-12)
@time dmrg(H, ψ0, sweeps)This will output something like:
(N, Nf) = (20, 10)
U = 1.0
Free fermion starting energy
inner(ψ0, H, ψ0) = -2.3812770621299357
Random state starting energy
inner(ψr, H, ψr) = 10.0
