Stored as a total energy in the convention of VarBench; quoted here as E/N (S.S), which is what the papers report (how the conversion works).

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

Extrapolations (1)

Zero-variance, bond-dimension or Trotter-error extrapolations. Not a bound: no ansatz ever reached the number, so it cannot hold the record.

Table I, row J2 = 0.48, column L=8 | Energy per site in S.S units; the table's own L = 4 and L = 6 ED columns equal QMBL's exact rows. The finite-size values are extrapolated linearly in 1/Dc^2 (text), so they are not upper bounds.

Coverage

Newest published number here: 2016. 1 row added from the 2026-09 literature sweep, on top of the VarBench snapshot of 2024-10-22.
