Description
Correlated systems with relatively low entanglement
entropy can be studied efficiently by DMRG-type methods.
An analytical theory for how the central charge controls
"finite-entanglement scaling" for static properties is briefly
reviewed; we then turn to dynamics. Two situations
considered, for which numerical results are possible on large
systems even without integrability, are a sweep through a
quantum critical point and the possible existence of glassy
behavior in infinite-temperature dynamics of 1D systems
("many-body localization").
