Parallelization Strategies for Density Matrix Renormalization Group Algorithms on Shared-Memory Systems
Shared-memory parallelization (SMP) strategies for density matrix
renormalization group (DMRG) algorithms enable the treatment of complex systems
in solid state physics. We present two different approaches by which
parallelization of the standard DMRG algorithm can be accomplished in an
efficient way. The methods are illustrated with DMRG calculations of the
two-dimensional Hubbard model and the one-dimensional Holstein-Hubbard model on
contemporary SMP architectures. The parallelized code shows good scalability up
to at least eight processors and allows us to solve problems which exceed the
capability of sequential DMRG calculations.Comment: 18 pages, 9 figure
