correlation_length

tenpy.simulations.measurement.correlation_length(results, psi, simulation, key='correlation_length', unit=None, **kwargs)[source]

Measure the correlaiton of an infinite MPS.

Parameters
  • results – See measurement_index().

  • psi – See measurement_index().

  • simulation – See measurement_index().

  • key – See measurement_index().

  • unit ('MPS_sites' | 'MPS_sites_ungrouped' | 'lattice_rings') –

    The unit in which the correlation length is returned, see the warning in correlation_length().

    MPS_sites :

    Units of the current MPS site

    MPS_sites_ungrouped :

    If psi is an MPS upon which group_sites() was called, this is in units of the ungrouped sites.

    lattice_rings :

    In units of lattice “rings” around the cylinder, for correlations along the lattice.basis[0].

    lattice_spacing :

    In units of lattice spacings for correlations along the cylinder axis (for periodic boundary conditions along y) or along lattice.basis[0] (for “ladders” with open bboundary conditions).

  • **kwargs – Further keywoard arguments given to correlation_length().
