Efficient MPO Construction for Long-Range Hamiltonians with Periodic Boundary Conditions: Application to Many-Body Dynamics
Abstract
Matrix product operator (MPO) serves as a fundamental component in tensor network simulations of quantum many-body dynamics. We employ an MPO construction that introduces additional propagation channels to embed both periodic boundary conditions and finite-range couplings directly into an open boundary MPO. We apply this construction within the time-dependent variational principle (TDVP) framework to simulate quench dynamics in a spin-1/2 chain with finite-range interactions, and benchmark the results numerically against the fourth-order Runge-Kutta method, finding excellent agreement for both single-body and two-body observables. The approach offers a practical route for tensor network simulations of many-body dynamics in periodic finite-range systems.
