EPJ B Colloquium - Tensor network theory

Details: Published on 01 December 2014

Entropy of a 1d MERA: the number of links to cut in order to disconnect the L physical indices in the block form the rest of the system grows logarithmically with L, hence *S(L)* = O(log L). This is an example of an area-law in holographic space.

Tensor Network (TN) states are a new language, based on entanglement, for quantum many-body states. Román Orús, in a new EPJ B Colloquium, reviews four theoretical developments in TN states for strongly correlated systems.

Specifically, the author considers the effect of symmetries in TN states, fermionic TNs, and the calculation of entanglement Hamiltonians from Projected Entangled Pair States (PEPS). He also examines the relationship between the Multi-scale Entanglement Renormalisation Ansatz (MERA) and the Anti-de Sitter space/Conformal Field Theory (AdS/CFT) or gauge/gravity duality.

The emphasis is on the role of entanglement in the emergence of several physical properties and objects throughout the TN literature, and on some recent results along these lines.

This was our first experience of publishing with EPJ Web of Conferences. We contacted the publisher in the middle of September, just one month prior to the Conference, but everything went through smoothly. We have had published MNPS Proceedings with different publishers in the past, and would like to tell that the EPJ Web of Conferences team was probably the best, very quick, helpful and interactive. Typically, we were getting responses from EPJ Web of Conferences team within less than an hour and have had help at every production stage.
We are very thankful to Solange Guenot, Web of Conferences Publishing Editor, and Isabelle Houlbert, Web of Conferences Production Editor, for their support. These ladies are top-level professionals, who made a great contribution to the success of this issue. We are fully satisfied with the publication of the Conference Proceedings and are looking forward to further cooperation. The publication was very fast, easy and of high quality. My colleagues and I strongly recommend EPJ Web of Conferences to anyone, who is interested in quick high-quality publication of conference proceedings.
