netket.operator.PotentialEnergy

class netket.operator.PotentialEnergy

Bases: ContinuousOperator

Returns the local potential energy defined in afun

Inheritance

__init__(hilbert, afun, coefficient=1.0, dtype=None)

Parameters:

• hilbert (AbstractHilbert) – The underlying Hilbert space on which the operator is defined

• afun (Callable) – The potential energy as function of x

• coefficient (float) – A coefficient for the ContinuousOperator object

• dtype (Any | None) – Data type of the coefficient

Attributes

H

Returns the Conjugate-Transposed operator

T

Returns the transposed operator

coefficient

dtype

hilbert

The hilbert space associated to this observable.

is_hermitian

Methods

collect()

Returns a guaranteed concrete instance of an operator.

As some operations on operators return lazy wrappers (such as transpose, hermitian conjugate…), this is used to obtain a guaranteed non-lazy operator.

Return type:

AbstractOperator

conj(*, concrete=False)

Return type:

AbstractOperator

conjugate(*, concrete=False)

Returns the complex-conjugate of this operator.

Parameters:

concrete – if True returns a concrete operator and not a lazy wrapper

Return type:

AbstractOperator

Returns:

if concrete is not True, self or a lazy wrapper; the complex-conjugated operator otherwise

transpose(*, concrete=False)

Returns the transpose of this operator.

Parameters:

concrete – if True returns a concrete operator and not a lazy wrapper

Return type:

AbstractOperator

Returns:

if concrete is not True, self or a lazy wrapper; the transposed operator otherwise
