Grouped by what the number is. Ranking happens only inside the first group.

Numerically exact (1)

Exact diagonalization, an exact solution, or sign-problem-free QMC where that is established: the answer, not a claim about it.

Reported as. E0/N_b = 0.3352053(2) (magnitude, per bond, N_b = 8128), L x 2L = 64 x 128, cylinder

Table 3, "SSE data for L x 2L lattices with cylindrical boundary conditions (periodic in the shorter direction and open in the longer direction). The ground state energy is normalized by the number of interaction bonds N_b = 2 L^2 - L", row L = 64. Boundary PO (VarBench lattice.md): periodic along the 64-site direction, open along the 128-site one. Printed as a magnitude; E/N = -(E0/N_b) N_b / N = -0.33258651 in S.S units, Pauli total = 4 N E/N.
