Autocorrelations from the transfer matrix DMRG method
  Extending the transfer matrix DMRG algorithm, we are able to calculate imaginary time spin autocorrelations with high accuracy (absolute error $<10^{-6}$) over a wide temperature range ($0<\beta J<20$). After analytic continuation using the rules of probability theory along with the entropic prior (MaxEnt), we obtain real frequency spectra for the XY model, the isotropic Heisenberg and the gaped Heisenberg-Ising model. Available exact results in some limits allow for a critical evaluation of the quality of answers expected from this procedure. We find that high precision data are still insufficient for resolving specific lineshapes such as low frequency divergences. However, the method is appropriate for identifying low temperature gaps and peak positions.
