Commuting Pauli Hamiltonians as maps between free modules

Jeongwan Haah

Abstract. We study unfrustrated spin Hamiltonians that consist of commuting tensor products of Pauli matrices. Assuming translation-invariance, a family of Hamiltonians that belong to the same phase of matter is described by a map between modules over the translation-group algebra, so homological methods are applicable. In any dimension every point-like charge appears as a vertex of a fractal operator, and can be isolated with energy barrier at most logarithmic in the separation distance. For a topologically ordered system in three dimensions, there must exist a point-like nontrivial charge. A connection between the ground state degeneracy and the number of points on an algebraic set is discussed. Tools to handle local Clifford unitary transformations are given.

Qudits of composite dimension, mutually unbiased bases and projective ring geometry

Michel R. P. Planat

The d² Pauli operators attached to a composite qudit in dimension d may be mapped to the vectors of the symplectic module Z² d (Zd the modular ring). As a result, perpendicular vectors correspond to commuting operators, a free cyclic submodule to a maximal commuting set, and disjoint such sets to mutually unbiased bases. For dimensions d = 6, 10, 15, 12, and 18, the fine structure and the incidence between maximal commuting sets is found to reproduce the projective line over the

Attention-based optimizer for symmetry finding

Shreya Banerjee, Vinodh Raj Rajagopal Muthu, Charlie Nation +5 more

Finding symmetries is crucial for understanding physical models. In this work, we present an optimization framework that searches Pauli symmetries of Hamiltonians, merging the fields of machine learning with automated symmetry finding. Built on a Set-Transformer architecture, our framework uses self-attention to encode the pairwise and higher-order correlations among the Pauli-Strings. The relations are then decoded as a candidate, which is further optimized with a custom commutation-based objective, and mapped to a symmetry of the input Hamiltonian. We apply our method to random Pauli Hamiltonians, periodic one and two dimensional transverse-field Ising model and the Toric code. We show that for physical Hamiltonians (Ising and Toric), our framework succeeds with near-deterministic probability while providing substantial advantage compared to state-of-the-art strategies. For random Pauli Hamiltonians, we estimate the required computational resources, specifically the number of parallel starts and the number of GPUs, to find a symmetry with high success probability under fixed design specifications.
