Dear Hamid,

You can use complex numbers in the ALPS applications.

Usually you need to set the parameter: COMPLEX=1 Then you can use “I” (capitol “i”) to define an imaginary number, e.g. J=1+2*I

The evaluation of observable should also work fine.

Best regards, Michele

Dear All,

Is it possible to add imaginary term to Hamiltonian in DMRG calculations or evaluate the expectation value of a operator with imaginary part.

Thanks
