About TeNeS

What is TeNeS?

TeNeS is an open-source program package for calculation of many-body quantum states base on the tensor network method. In ver. 0.1, this package calculates ground-state wavefunctions of quantum spin models, and evaluates physical quantities such as magnetization and correlation functions. For predefined models and lattices, there is a tool that makes it easy for users to generate input files. In ver. 1.0, a tool that is useful to define the own models and lattices from a simple input file will be developed. Furthermore, the Boson system will be able to be treated. This improvement will enable us to deal with various two-dimensional quantum spin and boson systems.

Availability

The following tools are required for building TeNeS.

  1. C++11 compiler
  2. CMake (>=2.8.14)
  3. MPI and ScaLAPACK

TeNeS depends on the following libraries, but these are downloaded automatically through the build process.

  1. mptensor
  2. cpptoml
  3. sanitizers-cmake

ScaLAPACK must be installed by yourself.

For tenes_simple which generates the input file for tenes, the following libraries are needed.

  1. Python (>= ver.3 is recommended)
  2. numpy
  3. toml
