Tensor Network Approach For Simulation Of Quantum Many-Body Systems, Danylo Lykov

Graduate Research Theses & Dissertations

The simulation of quantum many-body systems and many-body statistical systems presents a challenge for classical computers. Quantum computation, which recently gained significant scientific interest, can provide a potential advantage over classical approaches in this area. While there are multiple methods for the simulation of the physics of many-body quantum systems, most of them scale exponentially with the number of elements. A Tensor Network approach allows to reduce this exponential scaling for some cases and reduces the pre-factor for others. This approach can be used for the simulation of classical statistical physics models, quantum many-body systems, and quantum computers in particular. …
