Spectral Functions with the Density Matrix Renormalization Group: Krylov-space Approach for Correction Vectors
arXiv:1607.03538 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevE.94.053308
Abstract
Frequency-dependent correlations, such as the spectral function and the dynamical structure factor, help understand condensed matter experiments. Within the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) framework, an accurate method for calculating spectral functions directly in frequency is the correction-vector method. The correction-vector can be computed by solving a linear equation or by minimizing a functional. This paper proposes an alternative to calculate the correction vector: to use the Krylov-space approach. This paper then studies the accuracy and performance of the Krylov-space approach, when applied to the Heisenberg, the t-J, and the Hubbard models. The cases studied indicate that Krylov-space approach can be more accurate and efficient than conjugate gradient, and that the error of the former integrates best when a Krylov-space decomposition is also used for ground state DMRG.
