Correlations in Disordered Solvable Tensor Network States

Abstract

Solvable matrix product and projected entangled pair states evolved by dual and ternary-unitary quantum circuits have analytically accessible correlation functions. Here, we investigate the influence of disorder. Specifically, we compute the average behavior of a physically motivated two-point equal-time correlation function with respect to random disordered solvable tensor network states arising from the Haar measure on the unitary group. By employing the Weingarten calculus, we provide an exact analytical expression for the average of the $k$th moment of the correlation function. The complexity of the expression scales with $k!$ and is independent of the complexity of the underlying tensor network state. Our result implies that the correlation function vanishes on average, while its covariance is nonzero.
