Summary

This chapter constructs the MPS representation of a quantum state in the continuous limit. It starts with an MPS representation for the corresponding state in a discretized lattice system. Then the limit of the discretized lattice constant going to zero is taken to obtain its continuous presentation. The formulas for determining the expectation values are also derived. Finally, we discuss the scheme of canonicalization and the method for optimizing the local tensors of the continuous MPS.
