Functions

edge_coloring(edges[, strategy, interchange, group])

Generate an edge coloring for the graph given by edges, using

Module Contents

quimb.tensor.tnag.tebd.edge_coloring(edges, strategy='smallest_last', interchange=True, group=True)[source]

Generate an edge coloring for the graph given by edges, using networkx.coloring.greedy_color.

Parameters:
  • edges (sequence[tuple[hashable, hashable]]) – The edges of the graph.

  • strategy (str or callable, optional) –

    The strategy to use for coloring the edges. Can be:

    • ’largest_first’

    • ’smallest_last’

    • ’random_sequential’

  • interchange (bool, optional) – Whether to use the interchange heuristic. Usually generates better colorings but can be slower.

  • group (bool, optional) – Whether to group the edges by color or return a flat list.

class quimb.tensor.tnag.tebd.LocalHamGen(H2, H1=None)[source]

Representation of a local hamiltonian defined on a general graph. This combines all two site and one site terms into a single interaction per lattice pair, and caches operations on the terms such as getting their exponential. The sites (nodes) should be hashable and comparable.

Parameters:
  • H2 (dict[tuple[node], array_like]) – The interaction terms, with each key being an tuple of nodes defining an edge and each value the local hamilotonian term for those two nodes.

  • H1 (array_like or dict[node, array_like], optional) – The one site term(s). If a single array is given, assume to be the default onsite term for all terms. If a dict is supplied, the keys should represent specific coordinates like (i, j) with the values the array representing the local term for that site. A default term for all remaining sites can still be supplied with the key None.

terms

The total effective local term for each interaction (with single site terms appropriately absorbed). Each key is a pair of coordinates site_a, site_b with site_a < site_b.

Type:

dict[tuple, array_like]

_op_cache
terms
sites
_sites_to_covering_terms
property nsites

The number of sites in the system.

items()[source]

Iterate over all terms in the hamiltonian. This is mostly for convenient compatibility with compute_local_expectation.

_convert_from_qarray_cached(x)[source]
_flip_cached(x)[source]
_add_cached(x, y)[source]
_div_cached(x, y)[source]

_expm_cached(G, x)[source]
get_gate(where)[source]

get_gate_expm(where, x)[source]

Get the local term for pair where, matrix exponentiated by x, and cached.

apply_to_arrays(fn)[source]

Apply the function fn to all the arrays representing terms.

get_auto_ordering(order='sort', **kwargs)[source]

Get an ordering of the terms to use with TEBD, for example. The default is to sort the coordinates then greedily group them into commuting sets.

Parameters:

order ({'sort', None, 'random', str}) –

How to order the terms before greedily grouping them into commuting (non-coordinate overlapping) sets:

  • 'sort' will sort the coordinate pairs first.

  • None will use the current order of terms which should match the order they were supplied to this LocalHam2D instance.

  • 'random' will randomly shuffle the coordinate pairs before grouping them - not the same as returning a completely random order.

  • 'random-ungrouped' will randomly shuffle the coordinate pairs but not group them at all with respect to commutation.

Any other option will be passed as a strategy to networkx.coloring.greedy_color() to generate the ordering.

Returns:

Sequence of coordinate pairs.

Return type:

list[tuple[node]]

__repr__()[source]
draw(ordering='sort', show_norm=True, figsize=None, fontsize=8, legend=True, ax=None, **kwargs)[source]

Parameters:
  • ordering ({'sort', None, 'random'}, optional) – An ordering of the termns, or an argument to be supplied to quimb.tensor.tnag.tebd.LocalHamGen.get_auto_ordering() to generate this automatically.

  • show_norm (bool, optional) – Show the norm of each term as edge labels.

  • figsize (None or tuple[int], optional) – Size of the figure, defaults to size of Hamiltonian.

  • fontsize (int, optional) – Font size for norm labels.

  • legend (bool, optional) – Whether to show the legend of which terms are in which group.

  • ax (None or matplotlib.Axes, optional) – Add to a existing set of axes.
