Finite projected entangled pair states for the Hubbard model
Markus Scheb, R. M. Noack
Abstract
We adapt and optimize the projected-pair-entangled-state (PEPS) algorithm on finite lattices (fPEPS) for two-dimensional Hubbard models and apply the algorithm to the Hubbard model with nearest-neighbor hopping on a square lattice. In particular, we formulate the PEPS algorithm using projected entangled pair operators, incorporate SU(2) symmetry in all tensor indices, and optimize the PEPS using both iterative-diagonalization-based local bond optimization and gradient-based optimization of the PEPS. We discuss the performance and convergence of the algorithm for the Hubbard model on lattice sizes of up to $8\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}8$ for PEPS states with U(1) symmetric bond dimensions of up to $D=8$ and SU(2) symmetric bond dimensions of up to $D=6$. Finally, we comment on the relative and overall efficiency of schemes for optimizing fPEPS.
