by Matthias Troyer 19 Jul '10

19 Jul '10

Dear ALPS developers and users, The next beta release of ALPS is available. Updates compared to b2 include: - updated the ALPS VisTrails package to VisTrails version 1.5 - updated the DMRG application and added tutorials for DMRG - fixed compatibility issue with Windows in the MC-07 tutorial - fixed compatibility issues with some Linux shells On Windows please make sure to uninstall VisTrails and the ALPS VisTrails extension before installing VisTrails 1.5 and ALPS 2.0b3 Matthias Troyer

Question on running tutorial in ALPS_2.0b3
by bolun_chen＠mail.bnu.edu.cn 19 Jul '10

19 Jul '10

Hi All, I am a beginner to ALPS and I want to use it to perform QMC. I have downloaded and installed the Vistrails 1.5, the ALPS 2.0b3 and ALPS Vistrails extensions on Windows. But when I ran the tutorial using Python 2.65 contained in the Vistrails, I got an error, which read, "Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\pyalps\__init__.py", line 29, in <module> from tools import * File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\pyalps\tools.py", line 39, in <module> from pyalps.pytools import convert2xml, hdf5_name_encode, hdf5_name_decode, rng File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\pyalps\pytools.py", line 28, in <module> from pytools_c import * ImportError: DLL load failed: The specified module could not be found." Can someone help me to tackle this problem? Thanks very much! Best, Bolun Chen

ALPS on Vistrails
by Noah Rahman 16 Jul '10

16 Jul '10

Hi all, I can't seem to execute the tutorials in Vistrails correctly, they execute for one cycle and then the central module in the workflow turns red and complains about execution failing. Vistrails recognizes the ALPS extensions, but I couldn't make it recognize the Ising simulation as an additional package in the first set of tutorials. It seemed that the tutorial script wants the 0.6.0 version of orgs.comp-phys.alps packages and ALPS 2.0 has version 0.7.0? I grepped and replaced it and the same issue remained This happened with the first monte-carlo autocorrelation simulation as well, it ran once upon hitting execute and then the parts of the workflow above the red center part turned yellow upon attempts to execute a second time.

[help] How to compute the expectation value of 4 operators( two creation and two destruction operators)
by Jun Wen 26 Jun '10

26 Jun '10

Hello all, I have been trying to compute the expectation value of cdag(1) c(2) cdag(3) c(4) where two creation and two destruction operators are involved and 1, 2 ,3 and 4 label the sites in a spinless Hubbard model. Could anyone kindly tell me how I should define this in the parameter file or in the models.xml? Thanks a lot! Best, Jun

installation problem hdf5 alps 2.0.0b1
by Sebastian Huber 23 Jun '10

23 Jun '10

Hi everybody, I struggle with the installation of alps2 on our linux cluster. The problem boils down to the following error message after successful compilation: ../ALPS/bin/sparsediag: error while loading shared libraries: libhdf5.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory which I am not sure how to relate to the following answer I get from the configuration with cmake: -- Found HDF5: /srv01/condgrp/huber/opt/lib/libhdf5.so.6 The parameters I give cmake are: ../cmake-2.8.1/bin/cmake -D BLAS_LIBRARY=/usr/lib64/libblas.so.3.0.3 -D LAPACK_LIBRARY=/usr/lib64/liblapack.so.3.0.3 -D CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$HOME/ALPS -D LAPACK_64_BIT=ON -D HDF5_INCLUDE_DIR=/srv01/condgrp/huber/opt/include/ -D HDF5_LIBRARIES=/srv01/condgrp/huber/opt/lib/libhdf5.so.6 ~/alps-2.0.0b1-r4556-src-with-boost/alps/ Any suggestion is highly appreciated!

Calculating the spinon gap for finite system
by Vipin Varma 22 Jun '10

22 Jun '10

Hi I'm trying to get the gap (between the Sz=0 sector and the Sz=1/2 i.e. spinon) for a spin-1/2 anti-ferromagnetic Hiesenberg chain for a finite system L=4. No eigenvalues are calculated in the output file when I perform sparse diagonalization on the below parameter file for getting the spinon eigenvalue: MODEL="spin"; LATTICE="chain lattice"; LATTICE_LIBRARY="../lattices.xml" MODEL_LIBRARY="../models.xml" CONSERVED_QUANTUMNUMBERS="Sz"; local_S=1/2; J=1; {L=4; Sz_total=1/2;} It seems only the sectors with Sz= {-1,0,+1} can be input to the Lanczos algorithm. Can somebody tell me what I am missing? Thanks, Vipin

First ALPS 2.0 beta release
by Matthias Troyer 04 Jun '10

04 Jun '10

Dear ALPS developers and users, We have posted ALPS 2.0b1 on the web page. This is the first beta release of ALPS 2. It's main purpose is to provide a stable version to test on various platforms, and to provide feedback about installation and compilation issues. The libraries and applications should be at least as stable as version 1.3.4 was. Any potential issues should be due to dependencies on new libraries, a new build system, and support for more operating systems. Download and installation instructions are posted at http://alps.comp-phys.org/mediawiki/index.php/Download_and_install_ALPS_2 Major new features are - Use of HDF5 as binary file format for results, replacing XML for large data sets, as requested by power users. Specifying the option --write-xml with the applications will still write the old XML files in addition - Use of CMake as a new build system - Support for Windows, as requested by many users - Ready-made binary installers for MacOS X and Windows, as desired by many users. - More powerful Python based evaluation tools replacing the old XSLT based ones - Integration with the VisTrails workflow and provenance tool - A new DMFT application - Updated applications with new features - A new and more extensive set of tutorials (in progress). This first beta release will also be used to finish development on the tutorials. Progress on tutorials and documentation will be seen on the Wiki over the coming six weeks. Another beta release 2.0b2 is planned for early July, containing new features, improved documentation and tutorials and numerous improvements (and probably also bug fixes). I would like to encourage all to download and install this beta release and report problems or provide feedback on the mailing list. We want to solve all installation issued before 2.0b2 comes out. Besides all the ALPS developers I want to especially thank the following people who contributed major time to the development of new features in ALPS 2: Bela Bauer Sebastian Fuchs Lukas Gamper Jan Gukelberger Emanuel Gull Ryo Igarashi Tama Ma Olivier Parcollet Brigitte Surer Synge Todo as well as from the VisTrails team: Juliana Freire David Koop Emanuele Santos Claudio Silva For the ALPS team, Matthias Troyer

Dear all, I would like to ask you a question about the local measurement and definition: I want to calculate the density of fermions and the bond order cdag(i)*c(j) on each site and each bond in a spinless Hubbard model.
