We present our study for zero-temperature phase structure of the massive Thirring model in 1+1 dimensions with staggered regularisation. Employing the method of matrix product states, several quantities are investigated, leading to numerical evidence of a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition. Exploratory results for real-time dynamics and dynamical quantum phase transition, obtained using the approaches of variational uniform matrix product state and time-dependent variational principle, are also discussed.
