He is most known for inventing the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) in 1992. This is a numerical variational technique for high accuracy calculations of the low energy physics of quantum many-body systems His over one hundred papers on this and related subjects have been used and cited widely—his most cited article has received about two and a half thousand citations.
