We present results for the momentum-resolved single-particle spectral function of the low-dimensional system TiOCl in the insulating state, obtained by a combination of ab initio Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Variational Cluster (VCA) calculations. This approach allows to combine a realistic band structure and a thorough treatment of the strong correlations. We show that it is important to include a realistic two-dimensional band structure of TiOCl into the effective strongly-correlated models in order to explain the spectral weight behavior seen in angle-resolved photoemission (ARPES) experiments. In particular, we observe that the effect of the interchain couplings is a considerable redistribution of the spectral weight around the Gamma point from higher to lower binding energies as compared to a purely one-dimensional model treatment. Hence, our results support a description of TiOCl as a two-dimensional compound with strong anisotropy and also set a benchmark on the spectral features of correlated coupled-chain systems.
In recent years, the time-dependent variational principle (TDVP) method based on the matrix product state (MPS) wave function formulation has shown its great power in performing large-scale quantum dynamics simulations for realistic chemical systems with strong electron-vibration interactions. In this work, we propose a new stochastic adaptive single-site TDVP (SA-1TDVP) scheme to evolve the bond-dimension adaptively, which can integrate the tra-ditional advantages of both the high efficiency of single-site TDVP (1TDVP) variant and the high accuracy of the two-site TDVP (2TDVP) variant.

We propose a systematic approach to the systems of correlated electrons, the so-called $\mathbf{k}$-DE-GWF method, based on reciprocal-space ($\mathbf{k}$-resolved) diagrammatic expansion of the variational Gutzwiller-type wave function for parametrized models of correlated fermions. The present approach, in contrast to either variational Monte-Carlo (VMC), or the recently developed real-space diagrammatic expansion of the Gutzwiller-type wave function (direct-space DE-GWF technique), is applicable directly in the thermodynamic limit and thus is suitable for describing selected singular featur…
