Abstract

Abstract We analyze the convergence properties of the connected moments expansion (CMX) for the Rabi Hamiltonian. To this end we calculate the moments and connected moments of the Hamiltonian operator to a sufficiently large order. Our large-order results suggest that the CMX is not reliable for most practical purposes because the expansion exhibits considerable oscillations.

Analytic properties of connected moments expansions

Jay D. Mancini, Yu Zhou, P. F. Meier

Abstract The derivation of the connected moments expansion (CMX) is examined as well as the singularities that arise in the series expansion for the ground‐state energy. Explicit analytic results are presented that show a canceling of these singularities. Also, an alternate moments expansion (AMX) is derived that closely models the CMX but displays a varied computational range. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Further analysis of the connected moments expansion

Paolo Amore, Francisco Marcelo Fernández, Martin Rodriguez-Vega

By means of simple quantum-mechanical models we show that under certain conditions the main assumptions of the connected moments expansion (CMX) are no longer valid. In particular, we consider two-level systems: the harmonic oscillator and the pure quartic oscillator. Although derived from such simple models, we think that the results of this investigation may be of utility in future applications of the approach to realistic problems. We show that a straightforward analysis of the CMX exponential parameters may provide a clear indication of the success of the approach.

Quantum simulations employing connected moments expansions

Karol Kowalski, Bo Peng

Further advancement of quantum computing (QC) is contingent on enabling many-body models that avoid deep circuits and excessive use of CNOT gates. To this end, we develop a QC approach employing finite-order connected moment expansions (CMX) and affordable procedures for initial state preparation. We demonstrate the performance of our approach employing several quantum variants of CMX through the classical emulations on the H2 molecule potential energy surface and the Anderson model with a broad range of correlation strength. The results show that our approach is robust and flexible. Good agreement with exact solutions can be maintained even at the dissociation and strong correlation limits.

An extension of the connected moments expansion to nonlinear Hamiltonians is presented. The new method enables construction of rapidly convergent series for the ground-state energy which requires a relatively small amount of numerical effort.

t -expansion and connected-moment expansion: A generalization to excited states

P. Markoš, Š. Olejník

The $t$-expansion method for calculating ground-state energies of Hamiltonian systems is generalized to excited states. We introduce quantities ${M}_{n}(t)$ and ${D}_{n}(t)$ which for $t\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}$ converge to ${\ensuremath{\Sigma}}_{n}={E}_{0}+{E}_{1}+\dots{}+{E}_{n}$ and ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{n}={E}_{n+1}\ensuremath{-}{E}_{n}$, respectively. Like in the standard $t$-expansion, the $t$-series for ${M}_{n}(t)$ and ${D}_{n}(t)$ are constructed from moments of the Hamiltonian. The values of ${\ensuremath{\Sigma}}_{n}$ and ${\ensuremath{\Delta}}_{n}$ can then be estimated using (e.g.) a generalization of the connected-moment expansion of Cioslowski.

Estimation of the overlap between the approximate and exact wave function of the ground state from the connected-moments expansion

Jerzy Ciosłowski

A connected-moments expansion (CMX) is constructed for the overlap between the approximate and the exact (but unknown) wave function of the ground state. The CMX series provides approximations to the overlap that do not require the knowledge of the exact energy of either the ground or the first excited state. Moreover, the obtained approximate overlaps have a correct size extensivity. A numerical example is given, demonstrating the performance of the new method.
