tenpy.models.lattice.get_order_grouped(shape, groups)[source]

Variant of get_order(), grouping some sites of the unit cell.

In this function, the word ‘direction’ referst to a physical direction of the lattice or the index u of the unit cell as an “artificial direction”. This function is usefull for lattices with a unit cell of more than 2 sites (e.g. Kagome). The argument group is a To explain the order, assume we have a 3-site unit cell in a 2D lattice with shape (Lx, Ly, Lu). Calling this function with groups=((1,), (2, 0)) returns an order of the following form:

# columns: [x, y, u]
[0, 0, 1]  # first for u = 1 along y
[0, 1, 1]
    :
[0, Ly-1, 1]
[0, 0, 2]  # then for u = 2 and 0
[0, 0, 0]
[0, 1, 2]
[0, 1, 0]
    :
[0, Ly-1, 2]
[0, Ly-1, 0]
# and then repeat the above for increasing `x`.
Parameters
shapetuple of int

The shape of the lattice, i.e., the length in each direction.

groupstuple of tuple of int

A partition and reordering of range(shape[-1]) into smaller groups. The ordering goes first within a group, then along the last spatial dimensions, then changing between different groups and finally in Cstyle order along the remaining spatial dimensions.

Returns
orderndarray (np.prod(shape), len(shape))

An order of the sites for Lattice.order in the specified ordering.
