Gauge-covariant projected entangled paired states for interacting systems in a magnetic field

Wei Tang, Gunnar Möller, Frank Verstraete +1

The Hamiltonian for a system of itinerant particles on a two-dimensional lattice in a uniform magnetic field reduces the translational symmetry to a magnetic translation group, bec…

Fermionic tensor network methods

Quinten Mortier, Lukas Devos, Lander Burgelman +5

We show how fermionic statistics can be naturally incorporated in tensor networks on arbitrary graphs through the use of graded Hilbert spaces. This formalism allows to use tensor…

Dualities in one-dimensional quantum lattice models: topological sectors

Laurens Lootens, Clement Delcamp, Frank Verstraete

It has been a long-standing open problem to construct a general framework for relating the spectra of dual theories to each other. Here, we solve this problem for the case of one-d…

Generative modeling with projected entangled-pair states

Tom Vieijra, Laurens Vanderstraeten, Frank Verstraete

We argue and demonstrate that projected entangled-pair states (PEPS) outperform matrix product states significantly for the task of generative modeling of datasets with an intrinsi…

Mapping between Morita equivalent string-net states with a constant depth quantum circuit

Laurens Lootens, Bram Vancraeynest-De Cuiper, Norbert Schuch +1

We construct a constant depth quantum circuit that maps between Morita equivalent string-net models. Due to its constant depth and unitarity, the circuit cannot alter the topologic…

Laurens Lootens, Clement Delcamp, Gerardo Ortiz +1

We present a systematic recipe for generating and classifying duality transformations in one-dimensional quantum lattice systems. Our construction emphasizes the role of global sym…

A scaling hypothesis for projected entangled-pair states

Bram Vanhecke, Juraj Hasik, Frank Verstraete +1

We introduce a new paradigm for scaling simulations with projected entangled-pair states (PEPS) for critical strongly-correlated systems, allowing for reliable extrapolations of PE…

Quantum error correction thresholds for the universal Fibonacci Turaev-Viro code

Alexis Schotte, Guanyu Zhu, Lander Burgelman +1

We consider a two-dimensional quantum memory of qubits on a torus which encode the extended Fibonaccistring-net code, and devise strategies for error correction when those qubits a…

Ignacio Cirac, David Perez-Garcia, Norbert Schuch +1

The theory of entanglement provides a fundamentally new language for describing interactions and correlations in many body systems. Its vocabulary consists of qubits and entangled…

Tangent-space methods for truncating uniform MPS

Bram Vanhecke, Maarten Van Damme, Jutho Haegeman +2

A central primitive in quantum tensor network simulations is the problem of approximating a matrix product state with one of a lower bond dimension. This problem forms the central…
