spin-1/2 model on a square lattice

The optimization of infinite projected entangled-pair state (iPEPS) ansatz
represents the main challenge in obtaining accurate ground states of lattice
models. In this work, we propose a simple modification of the full-update
algorithm [1] and benchmark it on a frustrated J₁-J₂ spin-1/2 Heisenberg
model on a square lattice. Using an improved full-update, we obtain
extremely accurate ground-state energies but, most importantly, also
values of the magnetization that are comparable with previous results
from more complex variational optimization [2,3]. Moreover, we show
that the recent scaling technique based on the correlation length [4,5]
leads to a considerable improvement in analysis of the phase diagram.
