quimb.tensor.tensor_core.maybe_realify_scalar(data)[source]¶: If data is a numpy array, check if its complex with small imaginary part, and if so return only the real part, otherwise do nothing.

quimb.tensor.tensor_core.tensor_contract(*tensors, output_inds=None, optimize=None, get=None, backend=None, preserve_tensor=False, drop_tags=False, **contract_opts)[source]¶

Contract a collection of tensors into a scalar or tensor, automatically aligning their indices and computing an optimized contraction path. The output tensor will have the union of tags from the input tensors.

Parameters:

tensors (sequence of Tensor) – The tensors to contract.
output_inds (sequence of str) – The output indices. These can be inferred if the contraction has no ‘hyper’ indices, in which case the output indices are those that appear only once in the input indices, and ordered as they appear in the inputs. For hyper indices or a specific ordering, these must be supplied.
optimize (str, PathOptimizer, ContractionTree or path_like, optional) –
The contraction path optimization strategy to use.
- None: use the default strategy,
- str: use the preset strategy with the given name,
- cotengra.HyperOptimizer: find the contraction using this optimizer, supports slicing,
- opt_einsum.PathOptimizer: find the path using this optimizer.
- cotengra.ContractionTree: use this exact tree, supports slicing,
- path_like: use this exact path.
Contraction with cotengra might be a bit more efficient but the main reason would be to handle sliced contraction automatically, as well as the fact that it uses autoray internally.
get (str, optional) –
What to return. If:
- None (the default) - return the resulting scalar or Tensor.
- 'expression' - return a callbable expression that performs the contraction and operates on the raw arrays.
- 'tree' - return the cotengra.ContractionTree describing the contraction.
- 'path' - return the raw ‘path’ as a list of tuples.
- 'symbol-map' - return the dict mapping indices to ‘symbols’ (single unicode letters) used internally by cotengra
- 'path-info' - return the opt_einsum.PathInfo path object with detailed information such as flop cost. The symbol-map is also added to the quimb_symbol_map attribute.
backend ({'auto', 'numpy', 'jax', 'cupy', 'tensorflow', ...}, optional) – Which backend to use to perform the contraction. Supplied to cotengra.
preserve_tensor (bool, optional) – Whether to return a tensor regardless of whether the output object is a scalar (has no indices) or not.
drop_tags (bool, optional) – Whether to drop all tags from the output tensor. By default the output tensor will keep the union of all tags from the input tensors.
contract_opts – Passed to cotengra.array_contract.

quimb.tensor.tensor_core.tensor_split(T, left_inds, method='svd', get=None, absorb='both', max_bond=None, cutoff=1e-10, cutoff_mode='rel', renorm=None, ltags=None, rtags=None, stags=None, bond_ind=None, right_inds=None)[source]¶

Decompose this tensor into two tensors.

Parameters:

T (Tensor or TNLinearOperator) – The tensor (network) to split.
left_inds (str or sequence of str) – The index or sequence of inds, which T should already have, to split to the ‘left’. You can supply None here if you supply right_inds instead.
method (str, optional) –
How to split the tensor, only some methods allow bond truncation:
- 'svd': full SVD, allows truncation.
- 'eig': full SVD via eigendecomp, allows truncation.
- 'lu': full LU decomposition, allows truncation. This method favors tensor sparsity but is not rank optimal.
- 'svds': iterative svd, allows truncation.
- 'isvd': iterative svd using interpolative methods, allows truncation.
- 'rsvd' : randomized iterative svd with truncation.
- 'eigh': full eigen-decomposition, tensor must he hermitian.
- 'eigsh': iterative eigen-decomposition, tensor must be hermitian.
- 'qr': full QR decomposition.
- 'lq': full LR decomposition.
- 'polar_right': full polar decomposition as A = UP.
- 'polar_left': full polar decomposition as A = PU.
- 'cholesky': full cholesky decomposition, tensor must be positive.
get ({None, 'arrays', 'tensors', 'values'}) –
If given, what to return instead of a TN describing the split:
- None: a tensor network of the two (or three) tensors.
- 'arrays': the raw data arrays as a tuple (l, r) or (l, s, r) depending on absorb.
- 'tensors ': the new tensors as a tuple (Tl, Tr) or (Tl, Ts, Tr) depending on absorb.
- 'values': only compute and return the singular values s.
absorb ({'both', 'left', 'right', None}, optional) – Whether to absorb the singular values into both, the left, or the right unitary matrix respectively, or neither. If neither (absorb=None) then the singular values will be returned separately in their own 1D tensor or array. In that case if get=None the tensor network returned will have a hyperedge corresponding to the new bond index connecting three tensors. If get='tensors' or get='arrays' then a tuple like (left, s, right) is returned.
max_bond (None or int) – If integer, the maximum number of singular values to keep, regardless of cutoff.
cutoff (float, optional) – The threshold below which to discard singular values, only applies to rank revealing methods (not QR, LQ, or cholesky).
cutoff_mode ({'sum2', 'rel', 'abs', 'rsum2'}) –
Method with which to apply the cutoff threshold:
- 'rel': values less than cutoff * s[0] discarded.
- 'abs': values less than cutoff discarded.
- 'sum2': sum squared of values discarded must be < cutoff.
- 'rsum2': sum squared of values discarded must be less than cutoff times the total sum of squared values.
- 'sum1': sum values discarded must be < cutoff.
- 'rsum1': sum of values discarded must be less than cutoff times the total sum of values.
renorm ({None, bool, or int}, optional) – Whether to renormalize the kept singular values, assuming the bond has a canonical environment, corresponding to maintaining the frobenius or nuclear norm. If None (the default) then this is automatically turned on only for cutoff_method in {'sum2', 'rsum2', 'sum1', 'rsum1'} with method in {'svd', 'eig', 'eigh'}.
ltags (sequence of str, optional) – Add these new tags to the left tensor.
rtags (sequence of str, optional) – Add these new tags to the right tensor.
stags (sequence of str, optional) – Add these new tags to the singular value tensor.
bond_ind (str, optional) – Explicitly name the new bond, else a random one will be generated.
right_inds (sequence of str, optional) – Explicitly give the right indices, otherwise they will be worked out. This is a minor performance feature.

Returns:

Depending on if get is None, 'tensors', 'arrays', or 'values'. In the first three cases, if absorb is set, then the returned objects correspond to (left, right) whereas if absorb=None the returned objects correspond to (left, singular_values, right).

Return type:

TensorNetwork or tuple[Tensor] or tuple[array] or 1D-array

Inplace compress between the two single tensors. It follows the following steps (by default) to minimize the size of SVD performed:

a)│   │        b)│        │        c)│       │
━━●━━━●━━  ->  ━━>━━○━━○━━<━━  ->  ━━>━━━M━━━<━━

This can still be optimal if the other tensor is already isometric, i.e. the pair are right or left canonical respectively.
absorb ({'both', 'left', 'right', None}, optional) – Where to absorb the singular values after decomposition.
info (None or dict, optional) – A dict for returning extra information such as the singular values.

class quimb.tensor.tensor_core.Tensor(data=1.0, inds=(), tags=None, left_inds=None)[source]¶

A labelled, tagged n-dimensional array. The index labels are used instead of axis numbers to identify dimensions, and are preserved through operations. The tags are used to identify the tensor within networks, and are combined when tensors are contracted together.

Parameters:

data (numpy.ndarray) – The n-dimensional data.
inds (sequence of str) – The index labels for each dimension. Must match the number of dimensions of data.
tags (sequence of str, optional) – Tags with which to identify and group this tensor. These will be converted into a oset.
left_inds (sequence of str, optional) – Which, if any, indices to group as ‘left’ indices of an effective matrix. This can be useful, for example, when automatically applying unitary constraints to impose a certain flow on a tensor network but at the atomistic (Tensor) level.

Examples

Basic construction:

>>> from quimb import randn
>>> from quimb.tensor import Tensor
>>> X = Tensor(randn((2, 3, 4)), inds=['a', 'b', 'c'], tags={'X'})
>>> Y = Tensor(randn((3, 4, 5)), inds=['b', 'c', 'd'], tags={'Y'})

Indices are automatically aligned, and tags combined, when contracting:

>>> X @ Y
Tensor(shape=(2, 5), inds=('a', 'd'), tags={'Y', 'X'})

Make this tensor unitary (or isometric) with respect to left_inds. The underlying method is set by method.

Parameters:

left_inds (sequence of str) – The indices to group together and treat as the left hand side of a matrix.
method (str, optional) –
The method used to generate the isometry. The options are:
- ”qr”: use the Q factor of the QR decomposition of x with the constraint that the diagonal of R is positive.
- ”svd”: uses U @ VH of the SVD decomposition of x. This is useful for finding the ‘closest’ isometric matrix to x, such as when it has been expanded with noise etc. But is less stable for differentiation / optimization.
- ”exp”: use the matrix exponential of x - dag(x), first completing x with zeros if it is rectangular. This is a good parametrization for optimization, but more expensive for non-square x.
- ”cayley”: use the Cayley transform of x - dag(x), first completing x with zeros if it is rectangular. This is a good parametrization for optimization (one the few compatible with HIPS/autograd e.g.), but more expensive for non-square x.
- ”householder”: use the Householder reflection method directly. This requires that the backend implements “linalg.householder_product”.
- ”torch_householder”: use the Householder reflection method directly, using the torch_householder package. This requires that the package is installed and that the backend is "torch". This is generally the best parametrizing method for “torch” if available.
- ”mgs”: use a python implementation of the modified Gram Schmidt method directly. This is slow if not compiled but a useful reference.
Not all backends support all methods or differentiating through all methods.
inplace (bool, optional) – Whether to perform the unitization inplace.

quimb.tensor.tensor_core.tensor_network_gate_inds(self, G, inds, contract=False, tags=None, info=None, inplace=False, **compress_opts)[source]¶

Apply the ‘gate’ G to indices inds, propagating them to the outside, as if applying G @ x.

Parameters:

G (array_ike) – The gate array to apply, should match or be factorable into the shape (*phys_dims, *phys_dims).
inds (str or sequence or str,) – The index or indices to apply the gate to.
contract ({False, True, 'split', 'reduce-split', 'split-gate',) –
‘swap-split-gate’, ‘auto-split-gate’}, optional How to apply the gate:
- False: gate is added to network lazily and nothing is contracted, tensor network structure is thus not maintained.
- True: gate is contracted eagerly with all tensors involved, tensor network structure is thus only maintained if gate acts on a single site only.
- ’split’: contract all involved tensors then split the result back into two.
- ’reduce-split’: factor the two physical indices into ‘R-factors’ using QR decompositions on the original site tensors, then contract the gate, split it and reabsorb each side. Much cheaper than 'split'.
- ’split-gate’: lazily add the gate as with False, but split the gate tensor spatially.
- ’swap-split-gate’: lazily add the gate as with False, but split the gate as if an extra SWAP has been applied.
- ’auto-split-gate’: lazily add the gate as with False, but maybe apply one of the above options depending on whether they result in a rank reduction.
The named methods are relevant for two site gates only, for single site gates they use the contract=True option which also maintains the structure of the TN. See below for a pictorial description of each method.
tags (str or sequence of str, optional) – Tags to add to the new gate tensor.
info (None or dict, optional) – Used to store extra optional information such as the singular values if not absorbed.
inplace (bool, optional) – Whether to perform the gate operation inplace on the tensor network or not.
compress_opts – Supplied to tensor_split() for any contract methods that involve splitting. Ignored otherwise.

Returns:

G_tn

norm(**contract_opts)[source]¶

Frobenius norm of this tensor network. Computed by exactly contracting the TN with its conjugate:

\[\|T\|_F = \sqrt{\mathrm{Tr} \left(T^{\dagger} T\right)}\]

Contract this tensor network using the hyperoptimized approximate contraction method introduced in https://arxiv.org/abs/2206.07044.

Only supports non-hyper tensor networks.

Parameters:

optimize (str, sequence, HyperCompressedOptimizer, ContractionTreeCompressed) –
The contraction strategy to use. The options are:
- str: use the preset strategy with the given name,
- path_like: use this exact path,
- cotengra.HyperCompressedOptimizer: find the contraction using this optimizer
- cotengra.ContractionTreeCompressed: use this exact tree
Note that the strategy should be one that specifically targets compressed contraction, paths for exact contraction will likely perform badly. See the cotengra documentation for more details. Values for max_bond and compress_late are inherited from the optimizer if possible (and not specified).
output_inds (sequence of str, optional) – Output indices. Note that hyper indices are not supported and this is just for specifying the output order.
max_bond ("auto", int or None, optional) –
The maximum bond dimension to allow during compression.
- "auto": try and inherit value from the optimizer, or use the current maximum bond dimension squared if not available.
- int: a specific maximum bond dimension to use.
- None: no maximum bond dimension (compression still possible via cutoff) - not recommended.
cutoff (float, optional) – The singular value cutoff to use during compression.
tree_gauge_distance (int, optional) – The distance to ‘tree gauge’ around a pair of tensors before compressing. Depending on if compress_mode=”basic” this sets canonize_distance and canonize_after_distance.
canonize_distance (int, optional) – The distance to canonize around a pair of tensors before compressing.
canonize_opts (dict, optional) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the canonize routine.
canonize_after_distance (int, optional) – The distance to canonize around a pair of tensors after compressing.
canonize_after_opts (dict, optional) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the canonize routine after compressing.
gauge_boundary_only (bool, optional) – Whether to only gauge the ‘boundary’ tensors, that is, intermediate tensors.
compress_late (None or bool, optional) – Whether to compress just before contracting the tensors involved or immediately after. Early compression is cheaper and a better default especially for contractions beyond planar. Late compression leaves more information in the tensors for possibly better quality gauging and compression. Whilst the largest tensor (‘contraction width’) is typically unchanged, the total memory and cost can be quite a lot higher. By default, this is None, which will try and inherit the value from the optimizer, else default to False.
compress_mode ({'auto', 'basic', 'virtual-tree', ...}, optional) – How to compress a pair of tensors. If ‘auto’, then ‘basic’ is used if tree_gauge_distance=0 or gauges are supplied, otherwise ‘virtual-tree’ is used. See _compress_between_tids for other valid options.
compress_min_size (int, optional) – Skip compressing a pair of tensors if their contraction would yield a tensor smaller than this size.
compress_opts (dict, optional) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to the core pariwise compression routine.
compress_span (bool or int, optional) – Whether to compress between tensors that are going to be contracted. If an int, this specifies that if two tensors will be contracted in the next compress_span contractions, then their bonds should be compressed.
compress_matrices (bool, optional) – Whether to compress pairs of tensors that are effectively matrices.
compress_exclude (set[int], optional) – An explicit set of tensor ids to exclude from compression.
equalize_norms (bool or float, optional) – Whether to equalize the norms of the tensors after each operation. The overall scaling is accumulated, log10, into tn.exponent. If True, at the end this exponent is redistributed. If a float, this is the target norm to equalize tensors to, e.g. 1.0, and the exponent is not redistributed, which is useful in the case that the non-log value is beyond standard precision.
gauges (dict[str, array_like], optional) – If supplied, use simple update style gauges during the contraction. The keys should be indices and the values singular value vectors. Only bonds present in this dictionary will be gauged.
gauge_smudge (float, optional) – If using simple update style gauging, add a small value to the singular values to avoid singularities.
callback_pre_contract (callable, optional) – A function to call before contracting a pair of tensors. It should have signature fn(tn, (tid1, tid2)).
callback_post_contract (callable, optional) – A function to call after contracting a pair of tensors. It should have signature fn(tn, tid).
callback_pre_compress (callable, optional) – A function to call before compressing a pair of tensors. It should have signature fn(tn, (tid1, tid2)).
callback_post_compress (callable, optional) – A function to call after compressing a pair of tensors. It should have signature fn(tn, (tid1, tid2)).
callback (callable, optional) – A function to call after each full step of contraction and compressions. It should have signature fn(tn, tid).
preserve_tensor (bool, optional) – If True, return a Tensor object even if it represents a scalar. Ignore if inplace=True, in which case a TensorNetwork is always returned.
progbar (bool, optional) – Whether to show a progress bar.
inplace (bool, optional) – Whether to perform the contraction inplace.
kwargs (dict, optional) – Additional keyword passed to _contract_compressed_tid_sequence.

 ┌─┐    ┌─┐      ┌─┐     ┌─┐
─┤A├─Id─┤B├─    ─┤A├─┐ ┌─┤B├─
 └─┘    └─┘      └─┘ │ │ └─┘
             left_ind│ │right_ind
     ┌─┐     -->     ├─┤
    ─┤C├─           ─┤D├─
     └┬┘             └┬┘     where D = C ⊗ Id
      │               │

This increases the size of the target tensor by d**2, and disconnects the tensors at tagsa and tagsb.

Parameters:

tagsa (str or sequence of str) – The tag(s) identifying the first tensor.

Get a dict of ‘multibonds’ in this tensor network, i.e. groups of two or more indices that appear on exactly the same tensors and thus could be fused, for example.

Parameters:

Note the default set of ‘outer’ indices is calculated as only those indices that appear once on the tensors, so these likely need to be manually specified, otherwise, for example, an index that appears on two tensors and the output will incorrectly be identified as non-hyper.

Parameters:: output_inds (None, str or sequence of str, optional) – The outer or output index or indices. If not specified then taken as every index that appears only once on the tensors (and thus non-hyper).
Returns:: The tensor network hyperinds.

isometrize(method='qr', allow_no_left_inds=False, inplace=False)[source]¶

Project every tensor in this network into an isometric form, assuming they have left_inds marked.

Parameters:

method (str, optional) –
The method used to generate the isometry. The options are:
- ”qr”: use the Q factor of the QR decomposition of x with the constraint that the diagonal of R is positive.
- ”svd”: uses U @ VH of the SVD decomposition of x. This is useful for finding the ‘closest’ isometric matrix to x, such as when it has been expanded with noise etc. But is less stable for differentiation / optimization.
- ”exp”: use the matrix exponential of x - dag(x), first completing x with zeros if it is rectangular. This is a good parametrization for optimization, but more expensive for non-square x.
- ”cayley”: use the Cayley transform of x - dag(x), first completing x with zeros if it is rectangular. This is a good parametrization for optimization (one the few compatible with HIPS/autograd e.g.), but more expensive for non-square x.
- ”householder”: use the Householder reflection method directly. This requires that the backend implements “linalg.householder_product”.
- ”torch_householder”: use the Householder reflection method directly, using the torch_householder package. This requires that the package is installed and that the backend is "torch". This is generally the best parametrizing method for “torch” if available.
- ”mgs”: use a python implementation of the modified Gram Schmidt method directly. This is slow if not compiled but a useful reference.
Not all backends support all methods or differentiating through all methods.
allow_no_left_inds (bool, optional) – If True then allow tensors with no left_inds to be left alone, rather than raising an error.
inplace (bool, optional) – If True then perform the operation in-place.

Perform a series of tensor network ‘simplifications’ in a loop until there is no more reduction in the number of tensors or indices. Note that apart from rank-reduction, the simplification methods make use of the non-zero structure of the tensors, and thus changes to this will potentially produce different simplifications.

- 'D' : stands for diagonal_reduce
- 'C' : stands for column_reduce
- 'R' : stands for rank_simplify
- 'S' : stands for split_simplify
- 'L' : stands for loop_simplify
If you want to keep the tensor network ‘simple’, i.e. with no hyperedges, then don’t use 'D' (moreover 'A' is redundant).

class quimb.tensor.tensor_core.TNLinearOperator(tns, left_inds, right_inds, ldims=None, rdims=None, optimize=None, backend=None, is_conj=False)[source]¶

Bases: scipy.sparse.linalg.LinearOperator

Get a linear operator - something that replicates the matrix-vector operation - for an arbitrary uncontracted TensorNetwork, e.g:

         : --O--O--+ +-- :                 --+
         :   |     | |   :                   |
         : --O--O--O-O-- :    acting on    --V
         :   |     |     :                   |
         : --+     +---- :                 --+
left_inds^               ^right_inds

This can then be supplied to scipy’s sparse linear algebra routines. The left_inds / right_inds convention is that the linear operator will have shape matching (*left_inds, *right_inds), so that the right_inds are those that will be contracted in a normal matvec / matmat operation:

_matvec =    --0--v    , _rmatvec =     v--0--

Parameters:

tns (sequence of Tensors or TensorNetwork) – A representation of the hamiltonian
left_inds (sequence of str) – The ‘left’ inds of the effective hamiltonian network.
right_inds (sequence of str) – The ‘right’ inds of the effective hamiltonian network. These should be ordered the same way as left_inds.
ldims (tuple of int, or None) – The dimensions corresponding to left_inds. Will figure out if None.
rdims (tuple of int, or None) – The dimensions corresponding to right_inds. Will figure out if None.
optimize (str, optional) – The path optimizer to use for the ‘matrix-vector’ contraction.
backend (str, optional) – The array backend to use for the ‘matrix-vector’ contraction.
is_conj (bool, optional) – Whether this object should represent the adjoint operator.

_contractors¶

_matvec(vec)[source]¶

Default matrix-vector multiplication handler.

If self is a linear operator of shape (M, N), then this method will be called on a shape (N,) or (N, 1) ndarray, and should return a shape (M,) or (M, 1) ndarray.

This default implementation falls back on _matmat, so defining that will define matrix-vector multiplication as well.

_matmat(mat)[source]¶

Default matrix-matrix multiplication handler.

Falls back on the user-defined _matvec method, so defining that will define matrix multiplication (though in a very suboptimal way).

trace()[source]¶

modify(**kwargs)[source]¶

Overwrite the data of this tensor in place.

Parameters:

data (array, optional) – New data.
apply (callable, optional) – A function to apply to the current data. If data is also given this is applied subsequently.
inds (sequence of str, optional) – New tuple of indices.
tags (sequence of str, optional) – New tags.
left_inds (sequence of str, optional) – New grouping of indices to be ‘on the left’.

fuse(*args, inplace=False, **kwargs)[source]¶

Combine groups of indices into single indices.

Parameters:: fuse_map (dict_like or sequence of tuples.) – Mapping like: {new_ind: sequence of existing inds, ...} or an ordered mapping like [(new_ind_1, old_inds_1), ...] in which case the output tensor’s fused inds will be ordered. In both cases the new indices are created at the minimum axis of any of the indices that will be fused.
Returns:: The transposed, reshaped and re-labeled tensor.
Return type:: Tensor
