Exact Diagonalization for Quantum Lattice Systems with Translation Symmetry

Difficulty Level

Advanced

Description

The Exact Diagonalization (ED) method stands as a basic quantum many-body algorithm for quantum lattice systems. As the dimension of the Hilbert space grows exponentially with lattice size, ED typically accommodates systems ranging from just a few to several dozen lattice sites, contingent on the nature of the internal quantum spaces. To enhance the efficiency of ED, utilization of the symmetries inherent in a quantum lattice system can significantly reduce the Hilbert space dimension by one to two orders of magnitude. Generally, two types of symmetries are employed: particle number conservation and translation symmetry. In the ExactDiagonalization.jl package, particle number conservation has already been integrated. This project seeks to further implement the translation symmetry for improved performance.

Project Output Standard

A working Julia implementation for the exact diagonalization method for fermionic and hard-core bosonic lattice systems, utilizing translation symmetry and compatible with particle number conservation.
