  7. Abstract:
  8. Matrix Product States (MPS) is an analytical formalism to construct solvable many-body quan-tum models, which is based on the concepts of quantum information and computation theory. In this dissertation, We briefly review the history of matrix product states. We follow these states from quantum Markovian states(QMS) and valence bond solid states(VBS) to finitely correlated states(FCS) and matrix product states(MPS). We then present our method of study-ing and working with MP states and we introduce and study in detail the 1D and quasi-1D solvable spin models that we have been able to successfully construct in this frame work and calculate the corresponding correlations and quantities. These spin models are a Heisenberg chain, a generalized Majumdar-Ghosh chain, and a spin ladder correspondingly
