A simple tensor network algorithm for two-dimensional steady states.

TLDR
A tensor network method is presented that can find the steady state of 2D driven-dissipative many-body models, based on the intuition that strong dissipation kills quantum entanglement before it gets too large to handle.
Abstract
Understanding dissipation in 2D quantum many-body systems is an open challenge which has proven remarkably difficult. Here we show how numerical simulations for this problem are possible by means of a tensor network algorithm that approximates steady states of 2D quantum lattice dissipative systems in the thermodynamic limit. Our method is based on the intuition that strong dissipation kills quantum entanglement before it gets too large to handle. We test its validity by simulating a dissipative quantum Ising model, relevant for dissipative systems of interacting Rydberg atoms, and benchmark our simulations with a variational algorithm based on product and correlated states. Our results support the existence of a first order transition in this model, with no bistable region. We also simulate a dissipative spin 1/2 XYZ model, showing that there is no re-entrance of the ferromagnetic phase. Our method enables the computation of steady states in 2D quantum lattice systems.

Exactly Solved Models in Statistical Mechanics

TL;DR: Baxter has inherited the mantle of Onsager who started the process by solving exactly the two-dimensional Ising model in 1944 as mentioned in this paper, and there has been a growing belief that all the twodimensional lattice statistical models will eventually be solved and that it will be Professor Baxter who solves them.
