Dear All, I would like to compute overlap <\psi(t) | \psi(0)> for an simple open chain system using mps tools. I have encountered a series of errors while doing so. *************example 1 - input************* LATTICE='chain lattice' MODEL="spin" nsweeps=3; L=20 MAXSTATES=100 TIMESTEPS=50 DT=0.1 J=2 Jxy=0.5 measure_each=1 S_total=1/2 CONSERVED_QUANTUMNUMBERS='Sz' MEASURE[Entropy]=True COMPLEX=1; {} **************************************************** The above run with mps_optim produces an error with 2.2b4 version (lastest trunk), but with 2.2b3 it works just fine. To get it working with latest trunk I have to turn off "MEASURE[Entropy]=True" The error is: Sweep has been running for 11.71635035 seconds. Measurements. Exception raised casting True to type b WARNING: Unclosed tag: EIGENSTATES! Exception thrown: std::exception Another application I had in mind was computing the overlap. If I manage to compute the ground state (either by using 22b3 version or by turning off "MEASURE[Entropy]=True”) then I want to compute an overlap <psi(t) | psi(0)>. *************example 2 - input************* LATTICE='chain lattice' MODEL="spin" nsweeps=3; L=20 MAXSTATES=100 TIMESTEPS=50 DT=0.1 initfile='confGS.task1.out.chkp' J=2 Jxy=0.5 measure_each=1 S_total=1/2 CONSERVED_QUANTUMNUMBERS='Sz' MEASURE[Entropy]=True COMPLEX=1; MEASURE_OVERLAP[Overlap]='confGS.task1.out.chkp' ALWAYS_MEASURE=Overlap {} **************************************************** Again with 2.2b3 it works just fine, with 22b4 it produces the error: Energy -10.60920724 Measurements. Measuring Overlap overlap with confGS.task1.out.chkp. Exception raised casting True to type b Exception thrown: std::exception It works fine in 2.2.b3 alps version, while in 2.2.b4 (downloaded by svn from the "svn co https://alps.comp-phys.org/svn/alps1/trunk/alps”) it produces the following error: Measurements. Measuring Overlap overlap with confTEST.task1.out.chkp. Exception raised casting True to type b Exception thrown: std::exception Moreover it seems that in the input file for the b3 version, “always_measure=Overlap” has to be used to trigger the overlap measurements while in b4 version it is “ALWAYS_MEASURE=Overlap” Best, Mateusz Łącki
