Abstract

Neural networks have emerged as a powerful way to approach many practical problems in quantum physics. In this work, we illustrate the power of deep learning to predict the dynamics of a quantum many-body system, where the training is based purely on monitoring expectation values of observables under random driving . The trained recurrent network is able to produce accurate predictions for driving trajectories entirely different than those observed during training. As a proof of principle, here we train the network on numerical data generated from spin models, showing that it can learn the dynamics of observables of interest without needing information about the full quantum state. This allows our approach to be applied eventually to actual experimental data generated from a quantum many-body system that might be open, noisy, or disordered, without any need for a detailed understanding of the system. This scheme provides considerable speedup for rapid explorations and pulse optimization. Remarkably, we show the network is able to extrapolate the dynamics to times longer than those it has been trained on, as well as to the infinite-system-size limit.

Deep learning of many-body observables and quantum information scrambling

Machine learning has shown significant breakthroughs in quantum science, where in particular deep neural networks exhibited remarkable power in modeling quantum many-body systems. Here, we explore how the capacity of data-driven deep neural networks in learning the dynamics of physical observables is correlated with the scrambling of quantum information. We train a neural network to find a mapping from the parameters of a model to the evolution of observables in random quantum circuits for various regimes of quantum scrambling and test its generalization and extrapolation capabilities in applying it to unseen circuits. Our results show that a particular type of recurrent neural network is extremely powerful in generalizing its predictions within the system size and time window that it has been trained on for both, localized and scrambled regimes. These include regimes where classical learning approaches are known to fail in sampling from a representation of the full wave function. Moreover, the considered neural network succeeds in extrapolating its predictions beyond the time window and system size that it has been trained on for models that show localization, but not in scrambled regimes.

Universal Neural Propagator: Learning Time Evolution in Many-Body Quantum Systems

Zihao Qi, Christopher Earls, Yang Peng

Conventional approaches to simulating quantum many-body dynamics produce a single trajectory: if the Hamiltonian or the initial state is changed, the computation must be re-performed. Recent efforts toward foundation models have begun to address this limitation, yet existing methods transfer across either Hamiltonians or initial states, but not both. In this work, we introduce the Universal Neural Propagator (UNP), a single, unified model that learns the functional mapping from driving protocols to time-evolution propagators. Trained in an entirely self-supervised way, a single UNP model predicts dynamics across a function space of driving protocols and an exponentially large Hilbert space of initial states simultaneously. We benchmark on a two-dimensional driven Ising model and demonstrate the UNP's accuracy and transferability across product and entangled initial states, as well as for both in- and out-of-distribution driving protocols. The UNP remains accurate at system sizes beyond exact diagonalization, and can be efficiently fine-tuned across all initial states using observable data. By shifting the object of learning from quantum states to operators, this work opens a route toward transferable simulation of driven quantum matter.

Transfer learning in predicting quantum many-body dynamics: from physical observables to entanglement entropy

Philipp Schmidt, Florian Marquardt, Naeimeh Mohseni

Abstract Deep neural networks have demonstrated remarkable efficacy in extracting meaningful representations from complex datasets. This has propelled representation learning as a compelling area of research across diverse fields. One interesting open question is how beneficial representation learning can be for quantum many-body physics, with its notoriously high-dimensional state space. In this work, we showcase the capacity of a neural network that was trained on a subset of physical observables of a many-body system to partially acquire an implicit representation of the wave function. We illustrate this by demonstrating the effectiveness of reusing the representation learned by the neural network to enhance the learning process of another quantity derived from the quantum state. In particular, we focus on how the pre-trained neural network can enhance the learning of entanglement entropy. This is of particular interest as directly measuring the entanglement in a many-body system is very challenging, while a subset of physical observables can be easily measured in experiments. We show the pre-trained neural network learns the dynamics of entropy with fewer resources and higher precision in comparison with direct training on the entanglement entropy.

Neural network enhanced hybrid quantum many-body dynamical distributions

Rouven Koch, José Luis Lado

Computing dynamical distributions in quantum many-body systems represents one of the paradigmatic open problems in theoretical condensed matter physics. Despite the existence of different techniques both in real-time and frequency space, computational limitations often dramatically constrain the physical regimes in which quantum many-body dynamics can be efficiently solved. Here we show that the combination of machine-learning methods and complementary many-body tensor network techniques substantially decreases the computational cost of quantum many-body dynamics. We demonstrate that combining kernel polynomial techniques and real-time evolution, together with deep neural networks, allows to compute dynamical quantities faithfully. Focusing on many-body dynamical distributions, we show that this hybrid neural-network many-body algorithm, trained with single-particle data only, can efficiently extrapolate dynamics for many-body systems without prior knowledge. Importantly, this algorithm is shown to be substantially resilient to numerical noise, a feature of major importance when using this algorithm together with noisy many-body methods. Ultimately, our results provide a starting point towards neural-network powered algorithms to support a variety of quantum many-body dynamical methods, that could potentially solve computationally expensive many-body systems in a more efficient manner.

Deep learning of spatial densities in inhomogeneous correlated quantum systems

Alexander Blania, Sandro Herbig, Fabian Dechent +2 more

Machine learning has made important headway in helping to improve the treatment of quantum many-body systems. A domain of particular relevance are correlated inhomogeneous systems. What has been missing so far is a general, scalable deep-learning approach that would enable the rapid prediction of spatial densities for strongly correlated systems in arbitrary potentials. In this work, we present a straightforward scheme, where we learn to predict densities using convolutional neural networks trained on random potentials. While we demonstrate this approach in 1D and 2D lattice models using data from numerical techniques like Quantum Monte Carlo, it is directly applicable as well to training data obtained from experimental quantum simulators. We train networks that can predict the densities of multiple observables simultaneously and that can predict for a whole class of many-body lattice models, for arbitrary system sizes. We show that our approach can handle well the interplay of interference and interactions and the behaviour of models with phase transitions in inhomogeneous situations, and we also illustrate the ability to solve inverse problems, finding a potential for a desired density.

Learning ground state observables from quantum computing experiments

Ben Jaderberg, Freya Shah, Minjun Jeon +3 more

Recent theoretical progress has established conditions under which machine learning models can efficiently predict ground-state properties of gapped local Hamiltonians when trained on quantum-generated data. Previous experimental demonstrations in this paradigm, however, have largely been limited to small systems or highly structured states, due to the difficulty of preparing many-body ground states on quantum processors. In this work, we demonstrate learning from experimental quantum data generated from approximate ground states of the two-dimensional Heisenberg XXZ model with system sizes up to 115 qubits. We construct a dataset of single-site expectation values, two-point correlations, and 12-body loop correlations across the antiferromagnetic phase. We then train neural networks on this data and show that they can accurately predict spatially resolved observables for previously unseen Hamiltonian parameters, both within the training distribution and in an out-of-distribution regime approaching the phase boundary. Our results demonstrate the practical realization of learning from quantum data for an interacting two-dimensional many-body system at scale, motivating a path toward regimes where quantum processors could provide training data beyond the reach of classical approximation methods.
