Site operators

The customized operators are supported by simple operations of site operators. See the definition of transverse-field Ising Hamiltonian below as an example.

from quantax.sites import Square
from quantax.operator import sigma_x, sigma_z

lattice = Square(4)

TFIsing = -sum(sigma_x(i) for i in range(lattice.nstates))
TFIsing += -sum(sigma_z(i) * sigma_z(j) for i, j in lattice.get_neighbor())

The index of site operators can be a site index or a site coordinate. In the latter case, the boundary condition is taken into account automatically. For example,

from quantax.sites import Square
from quantax.operator import create_u

lattice = Square(4, boundary=-1, is_fermion=True)  # Anti-periodic boundary

# The two following definitions are equivalent
op1 = -create_u(0, 0)
op2 = create_u(0, 4)
