Abstract

Density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) and its extensions in the form of matrix product states are arguably the choice for the study of one-dimensional quantum systems in the last three decades. However, due to the limited entanglement encoded in the wave-function ansatz, to maintain the accuracy of DMRG with the increase of the system size in the study of two-dimensional systems, exponentially increased resources are required, which limits the applicability of DMRG to only narrow systems. We introduce a new ansatz in which DMRG is augmented with disentanglers to encode area-law-like entanglement entropy (entanglement entropy supported in the new ansatz scales as l for an l × l system). In the new method, the O(D 3) low computational cost of DMRG is kept (with an overhead of O(d 4) and d the dimension of the physical degrees of freedom). We perform benchmark calculations with this approach on the two-dimensional transverse Ising and Heisenberg models. This new ansatz extends the power of DMRG in the study of two-dimensional quantum systems.
