Description

Returns a function handle to reduce the number of sites in the Hamiltonian via decimation procedure.

Syntax

handle = Decimation(Opt, varargin)

Parameters
Opt Stucture containing the computational parameters. The required fields of the structure are the following:

  • Decimation

    set 1 or 2 for algorithm decimation_1_and_2, or set 3 for algorithm decimation_3

  • Decimation_block

    An integer value standing for the largest block of sites to be decimated together. (Decimation=1 implies Decimation_block=1).

  • Silent

    Set true to suppress the displaying of output messages.
See more details about the data structure here.
varargin Optional parameters given by a sequence ...'name', value,... . Possible parameter names are the following:

  • ForcedDecimation

    Set true to override the parameter Opt.Decimation to 3.

Methods

Decimation::decimation_3

Description

Algorithm to reduce the number of the sites in the Hamiltonian via decimation. The number of the decimated sites in one turn varies dynamically in order to avoid badly conditioned matrices.

Syntax

handle(E, Way2Hamiltonian, NameOfH, NameOfKulso_szabfokok )

Parameters
E The energy used in the calculations.
Way2Hamiltonian An instance of interface CreateHamiltoninans.
NameOfH String containing the name of the Hamiltonian to be accessed by the "Read()" function of "Way2Hamiltonian" (Typically used "Hscatter").
NameOfKulso_szabfokok String containing the name of the list of sites to be kept after the deciamtion. The list is obtained by the "Read()" function of "Way2Hamiltonian". (Typically used "kulso_szabfokok").






Decimation::decimation_1_and_2

Description

Algorithm to reduce the number of sites in the Hamiltonian via decimation. The number of the decimated sites is fixed during the calculations.

Syntax

handle(E, Way2Hamiltonian, NameOfH, NameOfKulso_szabfokok )

Parameters
E The energy
Way2Hamiltonian An instance of interface CreateHamiltoninans.
NameOfH String containing the name of the Hamiltonian to be accessed by the "Read()" function of "Way2Hamiltonian" (Typically used "Hscatter").
NameOfKulso_szabfokok String containing the name of the list of sites to be kept after the deciamtion. The list is obtained by the "Read()" function of "Way2Hamiltonian". (Typically used "kulso_szabfokok").
