Geometric interpretation of the multi-scale entanglement renormalization ansatz
Ashley Milsted, Guifre Vidal
The multi-scale entanglement renormalization ansatz (MERA) is a tensor network representation for ground states of critical quantum spin chains, with a network that extends in an a…

Tensor networks as path integral geometry
Ashley Milsted, Guifre Vidal
In the context of a quantum critical spin chain whose low energy physics corresponds to a conformal field theory (CFT), it was recently demonstrated [A. Milsted G. Vidal, arXiv:180…

Tensor networks as conformal transformations
Ashley Milsted, Guifre Vidal
Tensor networks are often used to accurately represent ground states of quantum spin chains. Two popular choices of such tensor network representations can be seen to implement lin…
