Description

Recently it has been shown that the model wave functions describing the fractional quantum Hall (FQH) effect have an exact representation as matrix product states (MPS). This representation is extremely useful for numerical calculation of FQH physics. However, a crucial piece, the implementation of the non-local quasielectron operator has been missing. We show how to implement the quasi-electron as an MPS for the Laughlin state and numerically compute the Berry phases for different excitations.
