Abstract
We apply the biorthonormal transfer-matrix renormalization group (BTMRG) [Phys. Rev. E 83, 036702 (2011)] to study low-temperature properties of quantum spin chains. Simulation on isotropic Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain demonstrates that the BTMRG outperforms the conventional transfer-matrix renormalization group (TMRG) by successfully accessing far lower temperature unreachable by conventional TMRG, while retaining the same level of accuracy. The power of the method is further illustrated by the calculation of the low-temperature specific heat for a frustrated spin chain.
