Abstract
We have studied quantum data compression for finite quantum systems where the site density matrices are not independent, i.e., the density matrix cannot be given as direct product of site density matrices and the von Neumann entropy is not equal to the sum of site entropies. Using the density-matrix renormalization-group (DMRG) method for the one-dimensional Hubbard model, we have shown that a simple relationship exists between the entropy of the left or right block and dimension of the Hilbert space of that block as well as of the superblock for any fixed accuracy. The information loss during the RG procedure has been investigated and a more rigorous control of the relative error has been proposed based on Kholevo's theory. Our results are also supported by the quantum chemistry version of DMRG applied to various molecules with system lengths up to 60 lattice sites. A sum rule that relates site entropies and the total information generated by the renormalization procedure has also been given, which serves as an alternative test of convergence of the DMRG method.
