Memory,Time and Technique Aspects of Density Matrix Renormalization Group Method**The project supported in part by National Natural Science Foundation of China

Abstract

We present the memory size,computational time,and technique aspects of density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm.We show how to estimate the memory size and computational time before starting a large scale DMRG calculation.We propose an implementation of the Hamiltonian wavefunction multiplication and a wavefunction initialization in DMRG with block matrix data structure.One-dimensional Heisenberg model is used to illustrate our study.
