Date - 6th January, 2020 at Dept Of Physics, Manipur University
INVITATION FOR RIST POPULAR TALK:
You are cordially invited to attend a talk on the topic:
Mimicking nature:
Classical simulation of quantum many-body systems,
jointly organized by the Department of Physics, M.U. and Research Institute of Science and Technology (RIST), Imphal.
VENUE & DATE :
Conference Hall, Department Of Physics, Manipur University
Monday, 6th January, 2020 at 14.30 hrs.
By:
Dr. Augustine Kshetrimayum
Postdoctoral Researcher
Department of Physics, Freie Universität Berlin, Germany
Abstract:
Due to the exponential growth of the dimensions of the Hilbert space with the number of particles, quantum many-body problems continue to be one of the greatest challenges in physics. In this talk, I will give an introduction to Tensor network techniques which can be used to study challenging quantum many-body problems.
In particular, I will talk about some of our recent works in the group where we employ these techniques to study an actual quantum magnet Ca10Cr7O28, recently discovered to have properties of a quantum spin liquid.
I will then talk about an annealing algorithm based on tensor networks for 2D finite temperature states. I will also show how they can be used as a benchmarking and guiding tool for quantum simulators.
