Abstract

We parallelize density-matrix renormalization group to directly extend it to 2-dimensional (n-leg) quantum lattice models. The parallelization is made mainly on the exact diagonalization for the superblock Hamiltonian since the part requires an enormous memory space as the leg number n increases. The superblock Hamiltonian is divided into three parts, and the correspondent superblock vector is transformed into a matrix, whose elements are uniformly distributed into processors. The parallel efficiency shows a high rate as the number of the states kept m increases, and the eigenvalue converges within only a few sweeps in contrast to the multichain algorithm.
