I have a couple of issues with the syntax @repst has suggested. (i) It is a relatively common occurrence to contract networks containing many copies of the same tensor. I...

@repst, I think that `ncon` could be written to simultaneously accommodate 0-based and 1-based indexing, and it is a good idea to do so. This could be done using the...

The version of `ncon` on arxiv had something called 'zeros-in-sequence' notation, where the outer product of two tensors could be understood as having two tensors connected by a trivial-dim index...

While we are here, I would also suggest it could be very useful to include a `rand_like` or `random_like` function (even though I don't believe this exists for numpy?). I...

Sure, but it is already the case that blocksparse backend necessarily behaves differently to other backends when it comes to tensor initialization (such that there could inevitably be many places...

Hey @mganahl, given that ncon is currently being overhauled, maybe it is a good time to add this functionality? This is a very nice quality-of-life improvement that greatly simplifies the...
