Local tensor network for strongly correlated projective states

The success of tensor network approaches in simulating strongly correlated quantum systems crucially depends on whether the many body states that are relevant for the problem can be encoded in a local tensor network. Despite numerous efforts, strongly correlated projective states, fractional quantum Hall states in particular, have not yet found a local tensor network representation. Here we show that one can encode the calculation of averages of local operators in a Grassmann tensor network which is local. Our construction is explicit, and allows the use of physically motivated trial wavefunctions as starting points in tensor network variational calculations.
