➢ Simple update

Jiang, Weng, Xiang, PRL 101, 090603 (2008)

Fast and can access large D tensors

➢ Full update

Jordan et al PRL 101, 250602 (2008)

more accurate than simply update cost high

➢ Variational minimization with automatic differentiation

Liao, Liu, Wang, Xiang, arXiv:1903.09650, PRX in press

most accurate and reliable method cost high

Automatic Differentiation (AD)

➢ a cute technique which computes exact derivatives, whose errors are limits only floating point error ➢ a powerful tool successfully used in deep learning Computation Graph Chain Rule of differentiation Haijun Liao’s talk 3-4 pm 26 July

Strategy of solving this problem:

➢ Gain insight by making comparison with a reference system: ✓ Husimi Lattice, which can be almost exactly solved by TRG ✓ Husimi Lattice: locally similar to but less frustrated than Kagome lattice ➢ Find gap information from the D-dependence of the ground state energy ✓ Converge exponentially with D if the ground state is gapped ✓ Converge algebraically with D if the ground state is gapless

Liao, et al, PRL 118, 137202 (2017)

✓ Tree Structure ✓ D ~ 1000 accessible, quasi-exact ✓ Highly frustrated ✓ D is generally small

➢ Ground state of the Kagome Heisenberg model is a

gapless spin liquid

➢ Spin liquid phase has not bee found in the intermediate

phase of the square J1-J2 model, more works needed
