Density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) is a powerful numerical technique for both 1D and 2D systems. The traditional implementation for a 2D system requires an ordering of sites to form an effective 1D chain for simulation. We present a variation of the DMRG technique that utilizes a real-space representation in one direction and momentum-space representation in the perpendicular direction of the lattice. We demonstrate how the mixed representation reduces the computational costs by using momentum as a conserved quantity—and as a by product—produces the momentum-resolved entanglement spectrum. As an application, we map out the phase diagram of a tight-binding model of spinless fermions with nearest-neighbour interactions on the square lattice. For this model, we give performance benchmarks comparing the mixed basis to the traditional real-space basis.
