Hi
 My model doesn't conserve U(1) symmetry. My model is spin chain in transverse magnetic field. if we want to define the Sy we must use complex number i, so can we define complex number in Model.XML file?
 
Thanks,

 Does your model conserve SU(2) or U(1) symmetry? In that case the expectation value is 0. Otherwise you should be able to measure it

 Hi Dears
 
 Can i measure the expectation value of the y component of Spin
 operator (Sy)?( in DMRG )
 
 Thanks
