peps-torch

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

peps-torch is a python library for calculation of quantum many-body problems on two dimensional lattices. Variational principles calculation is used with an infinite PEPS (iPEPS) as the trial wave function. Therefore, the ground state is obtained in the form of the element tensor of the iPEPS.  The energy of the trial state is estimated by the corner transfer matrix method (CTM), and its gradient with respect to the element tensor is computed through automatic differentiation provided by pytorch.  Functions/classes for exploiting the system’s symmetry are provided for reducing the computational cost if possible. While general models and lattices are not supported, many examples of stand-alone codes would make it relatively easy for users to write their own codes to suit their needs. pytorch is required.

PHASE

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 3 ★★★

An electronic structure calculation program based on the density functional theory and the pseudo potential scheme with a plane wave basis set. This is a powerful tool to predict the physical properties of unknown materials and to simulate experimental results such as STM and EELS. This also enables users to perform long time molecular dynamics simulations and to analyze chemical reaction processes. This program is available on a wide variety of computers from single-core PCs to massive parallel computers like K computer. The whole source code is open to public.

PHYSBO (optimization tools for PHYsics based on Bayesian Optimization )

  • Level of openness 3 ★★★
  • Document quality 2 ★★☆

PHYSBO is a Python library for researchers mainly in the materials science field to perform fast and scalable Bayesian optimization based on COMBO (Common Bayesian Optimization). Users can search the candidate with the largest objective function value from candidates listed in advance by using machine learning prediction. PHYSBO can handle a larger amount of data compared with standard implementations such as scikit-learn.
