Scaling the semidefinite program solver SDPB

Abstract

We present enhancements to SDPB, an open source, parallelized, arbitrary precision semidefinite program solver designed for the conformal bootstrap. The main enhancement is significantly improved performance and scalability using the Elemental library and MPI. The result is a new version of SDPB that runs on multiple nodes with hundreds of cores with excellent scaling, making it practical to solve larger problems. We demonstrate performance on a moderate-size problem in the 3d Ising CFT and a much larger problem in the O(2)O(2) Model.Comment: 13 pages plus references, 2 figure
