We examine the performance of the density matrix embedding theory (DMET) recently proposed in [G. Knizia and G. K.-L. Chan, Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 186404 (2012)]. The core of this method is to find a proper one-body potential that generates a good trial wave function for projecting a large scale original Hamiltonian to a local subsystem with a small number of basis. The resultant ground state of the projected Hamiltonian can locally approximate the true ground state. However, the lack of the variational principle makes it difficult to judge the quality of the choice of the potential. Here we focus on the entanglement spectrum (ES) as a judging criterion; accurate evaluation of the ES guarantees that the corresponding reduced density matrix well reproduces all physical quantities on the local subsystem. We apply the DMET to the Hubbard model on the one-dimensional chain, zigzag chain, and triangular lattice and test several variants of potentials and cost functions. It turns out that ES serves as a more sensitive quantity than the energy and double occupancy to probe the quality of the DMET outcomes. A symmetric potential reproduces the ES of the phase that continues from a noninteracting limit. The Mott transition as well as symmetry-breaking transitions can be detected by the singularities in the ES. However, the details of the ES in the strongly interacting parameter region depends much on these variants, meaning that the present DMET algorithm allowing for numerous variant is insufficient to fully characterize the particular phases that require characterization by the ES.

We present detailed benchmark ground-state calculations of the one- and two-dimensional Hubbard model utilizing the cluster extensions of the rotationally invariant slave-boson (RISB) mean-field theory and the density matrix embedding theory (DMET). Our analysis shows that the overall accuracy and the performance of these two methods are very similar. Furthermore, we propose a unified computational framework that allows us to implement both of these techniques on the same footing. This provides us with a new line of interpretation and paves the ways for developing systematically new generalizations of these complementary approaches.
We determine the ground-state phase diagram of the three-band Hubbard model across a range of model parameters using density matrix embedding theory. We study the atomic-scale nature of the antiferromagnetic (AFM) and superconducting (SC) orders, exp licitly including the oxygen degrees of freedom. All parametrizations of the model display AFM and SC phases, but the decay of AFM order with doping is too slow compared to the experimental phase diagram, and further, coexistence of AFM and SC orders occurs in all parameter sets. The local magnetic moment localizes entirely at the copper sites. The magnetic phase diagram is particularly sensitive to $Delta_{pd}$ and $t_{pp}$, and existing estimates of the charge transfer gap $Delta_{pd}$ appear too large in so-called minimal model parametrizations. The electron-doped side of the phase diagram is qualitatively distinct from hole-doped side and we find an unusual two-peak structure in the SC in the full model parametrization. Examining the SC order at the atomic scale, within the larger scale $d_{x^2 - y^2}$-wave SC pairing order between Cu-Cu and O-O, we also observe a local $p_{x (y)}$ [or $d_{xz (yz)}$]-symmetry modulation of the pair density on the Cu-O bonds. Our work highlights some of the features that arise in a three-band versus one-band picture, the role of the oxygen degrees of freedom in new kinds of atomic-scale SC orders, and the necessity of re-evaluating current parametrizations of the three-band Hubbard model.
We reexamine the one-dimensional spin-1 $XXZ$ model with on-site uniaxial single-ion anisotropy as to the appearance and characterization of the symmetry-protected topological Haldane phase. By means of large-scale density-matrix renormalization grou p (DMRG) calculations the central charge can be determined numerically via the von Neumann entropy, from which the ground-sate phase diagram of the model can be derived with high precision. The nontrivial gapped Haldane phase shows up in between the trivial gapped even Haldane and N{e}el phases, appearing at large single-ion and spin--exchange interaction anisotropies, respectively. We furthermore carve out a characteristic degeneracy of the lowest entanglement level in the topological Haldane phase, which is determined using a conventional finite-system DMRG technique with both periodic and open boundary conditions. Defining the spin and neutral gaps in analogy to the single-particle and neutral gaps in the intimately connected extended Bose-Hubbard model, we show that the excitation gaps in the spin model qualitatively behave just as for the bosonic system. We finally compute the dynamical spin structure factor in the three different gapped phases and find significant differences in the intensity maximum which might be used to distinguish these phases experimentally.
Quantum embedding based on the (one-electron reduced) density matrix is revisited by means of the unitary Householder transformation. While being exact and equivalent to (but formally simpler than) density matrix embedding theory (DMET) in the non-in teracting case, the resulting Householder transformed density matrix functional embedding theory (Ht-DMFET) preserves, by construction, the single-particle character of the bath when electron correlation is introduced. In Ht-DMFET, the projected impurity+bath clusters Hamiltonian (from which approximate local properties of the interacting lattice can be extracted) becomes an explicit functional of the density matrix. In the spirit of single-impurity DMET, we consider in this work a closed (two-electron) cluster constructed from the full-size non-interacting density matrix. When the (Householder transformed) interaction on the bath site is taken into account, per-site energies obtained for the half-filled one-dimensional Hubbard lattice match almost perfectly the exact Bethe Ansatz results in all correlation regimes. In the strongly correlated regime, the results deteriorate away from half-filling. This can be related to the electron number fluctuations in the (two-site) cluster which are not described neither in Ht-DMFET nor in regular DMET. As expected, the per-site energies dramatically improve when increasing the number of embedded impurities. Formal connections with density/density matrix functional theories have been briefly discussed and should be explored further. Work is currently in progress in this direction.
We introduce Extended Density Matrix Embedding Theory (EDMET), a static quantum embedding theory explicitly self-consistent with respect to two-body environmental interactions. This overcomes the biggest practical and conceptual limitation of more tr aditional one-body embedding methods, namely the lack of screening and treatment of long-range correlations. This algebraic zero-temperature embedding augments the correlated cluster with a minimal number of bosons from the random phase approximation, and admits an analytic approach to build a self-consistent Coulomb-exchange-correlation kernel. For extended Hubbard models with non-local interactions, this leads to the accurate description of phase transitions, static quantities and dynamics. We also move towards {em ab initio} systems via the Parriser--Parr--Pople model of conjugated coronene derivatives, finding good agreement with experimental optical gaps.
