[ALPS-users] Conserve quantum number for composite unit cell

[Axel Gagge]

?It wasn't very hard to define such a quantum number, but it seems like it actually makes the simulation run much slower. I suppose this is because another quantum number needs to be stored which leads to a larger basis size again? On the other hand, I can think of no way to properly define the spin operators without using the quantum numbers S, Sz... ?


Many thanks,

Axel

You need to define a new combined quantum number, which is changed by the training and lowering operators for both types of particles.

I hope somebody else could give you a better answer, but I don't think this is possible out of the box, and I'm not 100% sure it is at all possible in the way you think about it.

What I would try is away to play around with a new model definition where you make a composite quantum number explicit.
The "fermion Hubbard" and "alternative fermion Hubbard" could be of inspiration for how to conserve N and/or Sz instead of Nup and/or Ndown.


Best,
Michele

?Hello, I just wanted to ask if it is possible to preserve a combination of quantum numbers such as the total number of excitations:

N = \sum_{bosonic sites} n_j + 1/2 \sum_{spinful sites} s_z

and what the syntax for this would be? I guess that one option would be to define a new quantum number and let Splus raise it by 1/2 but I just thought that I would check this with you first!

Otherwise, thank you for an excellent library! I have had no problems so far with the new release.
