Density induced phase transitions in $\mathrm{QED_{2}}$ - A study with matrix product states

We numerically study the zero temperature phase structure of the multi-flavor Schwinger model at non-zero chemical potential. Using matrix product states, we reproduce analytical results for the phase structure for two flavors in the massless case and extend the computation to the massive case, where no analytical predictions are available. Our calculations allow us to locate phase transitions in the mass-chemical potential plane with great precision, and provide a concrete example of tensor networks overcoming the sign problem in a lattice gauge theory calculation
