Tensor Network Contractions: Methods and Applications to Quantum Many-Body Systems: Lecture Notes in Physics, cartea 964

Autor Shi-Ju Ran, Emanuele Tirrito, Cheng Peng, Xi Chen, Luca Tagliacozzo, Gang Su, Maciej Lewenstein
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 28 ian 2020
Tensor network is a fundamental mathematical tool with a huge range of applications in physics, such as condensed matter physics, statistic physics, high energy physics, and quantum information sciences. This open access book aims to explain the tensor network contraction approaches in a systematic way, from the basic definitions to the important applications. This book is also useful to those who apply tensor networks in areas beyond physics, such as machine learning and the big-data analysis.
 
Tensor network originates from the numerical renormalization group approach proposed by K. G. Wilson in 1975. Through a rapid development in the last two decades, tensor network has become a powerful numerical tool that can efficiently simulate a wide range of scientific problems, with particular success in quantum many-body physics. Varieties of tensor network algorithms have been proposed for different problems. However, the connections among different algorithms are not well discussed or reviewed. To fill this gap, this book explains the fundamental concepts and basic ideas that connect and/or unify different strategies of the tensor network contraction algorithms. In addition, some of the recent progresses in dealing with tensor decomposition techniques and quantum simulations are also represented in this book to help the readers to better understand tensor network.
 
This open access book is intended for graduated students, but can also be used as a professional book for researchers in the related fields. To understand most of the contents in the book, only basic knowledge of quantum mechanics and linear algebra is required. In order to fully understand some advanced parts, the reader will need to be familiar with notion of condensed matter physics and quantum information, that however are not necessary to understand the main parts of the book. This book is a good source for non-specialists on quantum physics to understand tensor network algorithms and the related mathematics.

Notă biografică

Shi-Ju Ran is an associate professor in the department of physics at Capital Normal University (CNU), Beijing, China. He obtained his bachelor’s degree in the department of physics at Beijing Normal University, and his Ph.D. in the school of physics at University of Chinese Academy of Sciences. During 2015-2018, he worked as post-doctoral fellow at ICFO – the Institute of Photonic Sciences in Barcelona, Spain. His research interests include quantum many-body physics, tensor network algorithms, multi-linear algebra (tensor decompositions), and quantum machine learning. He is particularly enthusiastic about the highly inter-disciplinary researches, such as those between artificial intelligence and quantum physics.

Emanuele Tirrito obtained his Master’s degree in theoretical physics in 2014 at Pisa University. In 2015 he joined the Institute of Photonic Sciences in Castelledefels as a PhD student under Prof. Maciej Lewenstein’s supervision. In 2018 he was a visiting student at Johannes Gutenberg Universität in Mainz.
His main research interests include quantum many-body physics, tensor network algorithms, topological insulators and quantum machine learning.
