Tensor network states simulations of exciton-phonon quantum dynamics for applications in artifcial light-harvesting
… realistic models of noise assisted transport at the quantum level is challenging due to the intractable size of the environmental wave function. I developed a powerful tree tensor network states (TTNS) method that finds an optimally compressed explicit representation of the combined electronic …
