(color online) Ground-state energy and entanglement entropy for the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model determined by the TNS-Lanczos method based on the PEPS representation on the 4 × 4 square lattice. (a) E(n) and S(n) versus n for D = 2. The dashed line is the exact ground-state energy, Eex = −9.1892070651930. The inset shows the difference E(0) − Eex as a function of D. (b) Relative change of the ground state energy, [E(n) − Eex] / [E(0) − Eex], shown as a function of n. The result of the standard Lanczos exact diagonalization (ED) method with order-2 Krylov subspace is also shown for comparison.
