Sign Problem in Tensor-Network Contraction by Jielun Chen, Jiaqing Jiang, Dominik Hangleiter, Norbert Schuch

“…The performance of this scheme is governed by the number of correlations in contiguous parts of the tensor network (which by analogy can be thought of as entanglement). Remarkably, we find that the transition from hard to easy—i.e., from a volume-law to a boundary-law scaling of entanglement—already occurs for a slight bias of the tensor entries toward a positive mean, scaling inversely with the bond dimension D, and thus the problem becomes easy the earlier the larger D occurs. …”
