class tenpy.algorithms.tdvp.TDVPEngine(psi, model, options, environment=None)[source]

Bases: tenpy.algorithms.algorithm.TimeEvolutionAlgorithm

Time dependent variational principle algorithm for MPS.

Deprecated since version 0.6.0: Renamed parameter/attribute TDVP_params to options.

Parameters
  • psi (MPS) – Initial state to be time evolved. Modified in place.

  • model (MPOModel) – The model representing the Hamiltonian for which we want to find the ground state.

  • options (dict) – Further optional parameters as described in the following table.

  • environment (:class:'~tenpy.networks.mpo.MPOEnvironment` | None) – Initial environment. If None (default), it will be calculated at the beginning.

Options

run()[source]

(Real-)time evolution with TDVP.

run_one_site(N_steps=None)[source]

Be aware that the bond dimension will not increase!

Parameters

N_steps (integer. Number of steps) –

run_two_sites(N_steps=None)[source]

Run the TDVP algorithm with two sites update.

The bond dimension will increase. Truncation happens at every step of the sweep, according to the parameters set in trunc_params.

Performs the sweep right->left of the second order TDVP scheme with one site update.

Evolve from 0.5*dt

sweep_right_left_two()[source]

update_theta_h1(Lp, Rp, theta, W, dt)[source]

Update with the one site Hamiltonian.

Parameters
  • Lp (Array) – tensor representing the left environment

  • Rp (Array) – tensor representing the right environment

  • theta (Array) – the theta tensor which needs to be updated

  • W (Array) – MPO which is applied to the ‘p’ leg of theta

update_theta_h2(Lp, Rp, theta, W0, W1, dt)[source]

Update with the two sites Hamiltonian.

Parameters
theta_svd_left_right(theta)[source]

Performs the SVD from left to right.

Parameters

theta (tenpy.linalg.np_conserved.Array) – the theta tensor on which the SVD is applied

set_anonymous_svd(U, new_label)[source]

Relabel the svd.

Parameters

U (tenpy.linalg.np_conserved.Array) – the tensor which lacks a leg_label

theta_svd_right_left(theta)[source]

Performs the SVD from right to left.

Parameters

theta (tenpy.linalg.np_conserved.Array,) – The theta tensor on which the SVD is applied

update_s_h0(s, H, dt)[source]

Update with the zero site Hamiltonian (update of the singular value)

Parameters
  • s (tenpy.linalg.np_conserved.Array) – representing the singular value matrix which is updated

  • H (H0_mixed) – zero site Hamiltonian that we need to apply on the singular value matrix

  • dt (complex number) – time step of the evolution

get_resume_data()[source]

Return necessary data to resume a run() interrupted at a checkpoint.

At a checkpoint, you can save psi, model and options along with the data returned by this function. When the simulation aborts, you can resume it using this saved data with:

eng = AlgorithmClass(psi, model, options, resume_data=resume_data)
eng.resume_run(resume_data)

An algorithm which doesn’t support this should override resume_run to raise an Error.

Returns

resume_data – Dictionary with necessary data (apart from copies of psi, model, options) that allows to continue the simulation from where we are now.

Return type

dict

resume_run()[source]

Resume a run that was interrupted.

In case we saved an intermediate result at a checkpoint, this function allows to resume the run() of the algorithm (after re-initialization with the resume_data). Since most algorithms just have a while loop with break conditions, the default behaviour implemented here is to just call run().
