Motivations behind TNS and related questions

Ideally, a TNS representation should be a (mathematically tractable) way of describing the state of a system composed of many sub-systems having a certain geometry and subject to interactions respecting this geometry.

Example :It is rigorously proven in some cases and conjectured in some others that being a TNS is approximately equivalent to being a ground state of a gapped local Hamiltonian (Hastings, Landau/Vazirani/Vidick...)

(‘gapped’=spectral gap lower bounded by a constant independent ofN, ‘local’=composed of terms which act only on nearby sites)

−→In condensed-matter physics, TNS are used as Ansatz in computations : optimization over a tractable number of parameters, even for largeN.

General question :Are statements of this kind at least true generically ?

−→What are the typical features of TNS ?

For instance : What is the typical amount of entanglement and correlations between two subsets of particles ? Is the parent Hamiltonian typically gapped or gapless ? etc.

Idea :Sample a TNS at random and study the characteristics that it exhibits with high probability. (Regime we are interested in : larged,q, ideally anyN.)

Proof strategy

Let’s do as ifTwere Hermitian and thus forget about all the subtleties eigen vs singular values...

By the variational characterization of eigenvalues : for any unit vector|ϕi ∈(Cq)2,

1(T)|>|hϕ|T|ϕi|and|λ2(T)|6kT(Id− |ϕihϕ|)k.

d(T− |ψihψ|)converges in moments to the quarter-circle distribution (Aubrun/Nechita). So asymptotically the singular values ofT− |ψihψ|are almost all of order at most 1/√

Show that :E|hψ|T|ψi|=1 andEkT(Id− |ψihψ|)k6C/√ d.

Show that :f: (G1, . . . ,Gd)7→ kTPk, forPany fixed projector (e.g.P=|ψihψ|or P=Id− |ψihψ|), has a small probability of deviating from its average (local version of Gaussian concentration inequality by Aubrun/Szarek/Werner).
