Abstract
We introduce a variational unitary matrix product operator based variational method that approximately finds all the eigenstates of fully many-body localized one-dimensional Hamiltonians. The computational cost of the variational optimization scales linearly with system size for a fixed depth of the UTN ansatz. We demonstrate the usefulness of our approach by considering the Heisenberg chain in a strongly disordered magnetic field for which we compare the approximation to exact diagonalization results.
