Hi shuai cui, your model is correct, and the result for the second run is fair but not so near to exact result, I suggest you increase the number of *maxstates (=300) *, and also your *lattice size*, you will get a better result, just for check point I give you the exact energy (per site) at h=1 (which is critical h in this model) J=-1, h=1 L=100, *E0=-1.2732919* ( This is exact energy not DMRG result) Zhian.

transverse Ising model with DMRG
by shuai cui 26 May '11

26 May '11

Dear Prof. Troyer I am trying to calculate the ground state energy of the transverse Ising-Model ( -J*4*Sx(i)*Sx(j)-h*2*Sz(i) ) on a period 1d-chain-lattice with the DMRG. Though I had use both the default model and a modified model, the results are not satisfactory. So I ask for why the DMRG doesn't give a good result in transverse field Ising model as in other 1D model. the modified model is: <MODELS> <SITEBASIS name="spin"> <PARAMETER name="local_spin" default="local_S"/> <PARAMETER name="local_S" default="1/2"/> <QUANTUMNUMBER name="S" min="local_spin" max="local_spin"/> <QUANTUMNUMBER name="Sz" min="-S" max="S"/> <OPERATOR name="Splus" matrixelement="sqrt(S*(S+1)-Sz*(Sz+1))"> <CHANGE quantumnumber="Sz" change="1"/> </OPERATOR> <OPERATOR name="Sminus" matrixelement="sqrt(S*(S+1)-Sz*(Sz-1))"> <CHANGE quantumnumber="Sz" change="-1"/> </OPERATOR> <OPERATOR name="Sz" matrixelement="Sz"/> </SITEBASIS> <BASIS name="spin"> <SITEBASIS ref="spin"> <PARAMETER name="local_spin" value="local_S#"/> <PARAMETER name="local_S#" value="local_S"/> <PARAMETER name="local_S" value="1/2"/> </SITEBASIS> <CONSTRAINT quantumnumber="Sz" value="Sz_total"/> </BASIS> <SITEOPERATOR name="Sx" site="x"> 1/2*(Splus(x)+Sminus(x)) </SITEOPERATOR> <HAMILTONIAN name="trans_Ising"> <PARAMETER name="J" default="0"/> <PARAMETER name="h" default="0"/> <BASIS ref="spin"/> <SITETERM site="i"> h*2*Sz(i) </SITETERM> <BONDTERM source="i" target="j"> J*4*Sx(i)*Sx(j) </BONDTERM> </HAMILTONIAN> </MODELS> Separately, the parameter files are: LATTICE="chain lattice" MODEL= "spin" Jz=-4 Gamma=2 local_S=1/2 SWEEPS=4 NUMBER_EIGENVALUES=1 L=8 {MAXSTATES=20} LATTICE="chain lattice" MODEL= "trans_Ising" J=-1 h=-1 local_S=1/2 SWEEPS=4 NUMBER_EIGENVALUES=1 L=8 {MAXSTATES=20} Correspondingly, the results are: FINAL SWEEP - LAST ITERATION NUMBER OF STATES: 8 2 2 8 256 E0 = -282.636028178 ITER = 3 ENTROPY = 1.78546641552 ------------------------------------------- Truncation error = -4.98732999343e-17 ------------------------------------------- Checking if it is finished: not yet, next check in 60 seconds ( 0% done). Halted Simulation 1 This task took 46 seconds. Checkpointing Simulation 1 Finished with everything. FINAL SWEEP - LAST ITERATION NUMBER OF STATES: 8 2 2 8 256 E0 = -9.11126807853 ITER = 3 ENTROPY = 0.931162271124 ------------------------------------------- Truncation error = 2.22044604925e-16 ------------------------------------------- Checking if it is finished: not yet, next check in 60 seconds ( 0% done). Halted Simulation 1 This task took 13 seconds. Checkpointing Simulation 1 Finished with everything. but the correct data should be -10.251661790966022 which calculated by sparsediag. I don't understand why DMRG give a low precision result, even I had set h=0. Remarkably, the default model gives a wrong data, which far away from the correct one. I had exercise the XX model, which gives a very well data. I wonder if the transverse field Ising model has some special feature, or the DMRG parameter I used is not right? best regards, Shuai Cui

In the latter case how can I fix the things in Debian-provided HDF5?

parameters in spinmc

Dear all, I have a few questions about parameters in the spinmc application. In the Tutorias: Parameters web page, I found THERMALIZATION: Number of Monte Carlo sweeps for thermalization SWEEPS: number of Monte Carlo steps (after thermalization) -I don't understand what is the number of "copys" used to compute the averages. -Between copy and copy to compute the averages, how many MC steps are there? - Suppose I run with different magnetic fields. Is it possible to use the previous state as initial state for the next run?

multi-site terms support in hamiltonian
by Oles Zaburannyi 02 May '11

02 May '11

Hello, I have question about multi-site terms support in hamiltonian definition. I found some mention about that in ALPS workshop (2006) In recent wiki announced that `Extensions to more complex terms, such as 3- and 4-site terms are in preparation and will be included here as soon as the ALPS libraries support such terms.` There is possibility to include now such terms? Will arise huge problems in DMRG methods after including such milti-site terms? Thanks, Oles

Simulation of O(N) models
by Rachele Nerattini 28 Apr '11

Hi ALPS community, first of all sorry for my English and sorry if the questions that I'm going to make are trivial but I'm not a real expert in programming and using web libraries. I'm interested in doing classical MC simulations of O(N) models. I saw on the ALPS page Documentation:ClassicalMCSimulations and in particular ALPS application: spinmc that is possible to extend the application to additional O(N) models "...by editing the file mc/spins/spinmc_factory.C " I need to run a simulation for a O(4) model so I tried to edit the file spinmc_factory.C to this purpose in the following way /***************************************************************************** * * ALPS Project Applications * * Copyright (C) 2009 by Matthias Troyer <troyer(a)comp-phys.org>, * Synge Todo <wistaria(a)comp-phys.org> * * This software is part of the ALPS Applications, published under the ALPS * Application License; you can use, redistribute it and/or modify it under * the terms of the license, either version 1 or (at your option) any later * version. * * You should have received a copy of the ALPS Application License along with * the ALPS Applications; see the file LICENSE.txt.

Is it correct? And if it is so, what do I have to do after having edited the file to run the simulation? Thank you for the help. Best regards, Rachele Nerattini
