Tensor Networks: a quantum-information perspective on numerical   renormalization groups
  Exact many-body quantum problems are known to be computationally hard due to the exponential scaling of the numerical resources required. Since the advent of the Density Matrix Renormalization Group, it became clear that a successful strategy to work around this obstacle was to develop numerical methods based on the well-known theoretical renormalization group. In recent years, it was realized that quantum states engineered via numerical renormalization allow a variational representation in terms of a tensor network picture. The discovery provided a further boost to the effectiveness of these techniques, not only due to the increased flexibility and manipulability, but also because tensor network states embed a direct interface to the entanglement they carry, so that one can directly address many-body quantum correlations within these variational ansatz states. This lead to the application of several numerical tools, originally developed in the field of quantum-information, to approach condensed matter problems.
