The Renormalization Group: goals Given a local Hamiltonian Two type of questions: 1) Low energy, large distance, UNIVERSAL behavior: e. g. disordered/symmetry-breaking phase, topological order (S, T modular matrices), quantum criticality (scaling operators, CFT data) fixed point 2) Low energy, short distance, detailed MICROSCOPIC properties
The Renormalization Group: goals Example: given the (transverse field) Ising Hamiltonian spontaneous magnetization magnetic field 1) Low energy, large distance, UNIVERSAL behavior? ordered phase disordered phase 2) Low energy, short distance, detailed MICROSCOPIC properties?
The Renormalization Group on Hamiltonians: on ground state wave-functions: on classical partition functions: fixed point Hamiltonian fixed point ground state fixed point partition function Two types of Renormalization Group transformations: • Type 1 is only required to preserve UNIVERSAL properties • Type 2 is also required to preserve MICROSCOPIC properties such that For instance, TRG, TTN, MERA, are of type 2
The Renormalization Group • Type 1 is only required to preserve UNIVERSAL properties • Type 2 is also required to preserve MICROSCOPIC properties? such that Types 2 A and 2 B!! Type 2 A: e. g. TTN, Zhiyuan’s lecture on TRG Type 2 B: e. g. MERA, Glen’s talk on TNR fixed point: mixture of UNIVERSAL and MICROSCOPIC properties fixed point: only UNIVERSAL properties
The Renormalization Group Type 2 A: fixed point: mixture of UNIVERSAL and MICROSCOPIC properties example: TTN A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’ Q 6 A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’
The Renormalization Group Type 2 A: fixed point: mixture of UNIVERSAL and MICROSCOPIC properties example: TTN A’ B’ D’ C’ A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’ F’ E’ A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’ A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’
The Renormalization Group Type 2 A: fixed point: mixture of UNIVERSAL and MICROSCOPIC properties example: TTN Already a fixed point wave-function! It contains short-range entanglement = MICROSCOPIC details
The Renormalization Group Type 2 A: fixed point: mixture of UNIVERSAL and MICROSCOPIC properties example: TTN provided that we use a sufficiently large bond dimension Different fixed-point wave-function for the same phase! spontaneous magnetization magnetic field
The Renormalization Group Type 2 A: fixed point: mixture of UNIVERSAL and MICROSCOPIC properties example: TTN provided that we use a sufficiently large bond dimension Two problems:
The Renormalization Group Type 2 B: Proper RG transformation: fixed point: only UNIVERSAL properties example: MERA Q 7 A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’
The Renormalization Group Type 2 B: Proper RG transformation: fixed point: only UNIVERSAL properties example: MERA A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’ A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’
The Renormalization Group Type 2 B: example: MERA Proper RG transformation: fixed point: only UNIVERSAL properties Product state wave-function! It contains no MICROSCOPIC details A’ B’ C’ D’ E’ F’
The Renormalization Group Type 2 B: example: MERA Proper RG transformation: fixed point: only UNIVERSAL properties Same fixed-point wave-function for the same phase! magnetic field h spontaneous magnetization
The Renormalization Group Type 2 B: example: MERA fixed point: only UNIVERSAL properties Same fixed-point wave-function for the same phase! Proper RG transformation: With MERA, we have solved the two problems of TTN:
