Dynamics in One-Dimensional Spin Systems - Density-Matrix Renormalization Group Study
Abstract
Description
We study the one-dimensional $S=1/2$ Heisenberg model with a uniform and a staggered magnetic fields, using the dynamical density-matrix renormalization group (DDMRG) technique. The DDMRG enables us to investigate the dynamical properties of chain with lengths up to a few hundreds, and the results are numerically exact in the same sense as 'exact diagonalization' results are. Thus, we can analyze the low-energy spectrum almost in the thermodynamic limit. In this work, we calculate the dynamical spin structure factor and demonstrate the performance of the DDMRG method applying the open-end boundary condition as well as the periodic boundary condition.
