Applications of the density matrix renormalisation group to problems in magnetism

Condensed Matter 2008-02-03 v2

Abstract

We review White's density matrix renormalisation group method, an increasingly popular method for the solution of low dimensional quantum Hamiltonians. We describe some applications to frustrated spin systems, quantum critical phenomena, two dimensional classical and one dimensional quantum systems at non-zero temperature, and low energy properties of two dimensional quantum models such as the Hubbard and Heisenberg Hamiltonians.
