Finite Temperature Density Matrix Renormalization using an enlarged Hilbert space

Abstract

We apply a generalization of the time-dependent DMRG to study finite temperature properties of several quantum spin chains, including the frustrated J1-J2 model. We discuss several practical issues with the method, including use of quantum numbers and finite size effects. We compare with transfer-matrix DMRG, finding that both methods produce excellent results.
