Abstract

2020, 152, 174113] within the Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods (TAMM) infrastructure. TAMM is a massively parallel heterogeneous tensor library designed for utilizing forthcoming exascale computing resources. The two-body electron repulsion matrix elements are Cholesky-decomposed, and we imposed spin-explicit forms of the various operators when evaluating the tensor contractions. Unlike our previous real algebra Tensor Contraction Engine (TCE) implementation, the TAMM implementation supports fully complex algebra. The RT-EOM-CC singles (S) and doubles (D) time-dependent amplitudes are propagated using a first-order Adams-Moulton method. This new implementation shows excellent scalability tested up to 500 GPUs using the Zn-porphyrin molecule with 655 basis functions, with parallel efficiencies above 90% up to 400 GPUs. The TAMM RT-EOM-CCSD was used to study core photoemission spectra in the formaldehyde and ethyl trifluoroacetate (ESCA) molecules. Simulations of the latter involve as many as 71 occupied and 649 virtual orbitals. The relative quasiparticle ionization energies and overall spectral functions agree well with available experimental results.

Quantum Electrodynamics Coupled-Cluster Theory: Exploring Photon-Induced Electron Correlations

We present our successful implementation of the quantum electrodynamics coupled-cluster method with single and double excitations (QED-CCSD) for electronic and bosonic amplitudes, covering both individual and mixed excitation processes within the ExaChem program package, which relies on the Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods (TAMM) infrastructure. TAMM is a parallel heterogeneous tensor library designed for utilizing modern computing platforms, from laptops to leadership-class computing resources. This developed computational framework extends the traditional CCSD method to incorporate the intricate interplay between electronic and bosonic degrees of freedom, providing a comprehensive description of quantum phenomena. We discuss theoretical foundations, algorithmic details, and numerical benchmarks to demonstrate how the integration of bosonic degrees of freedom alters the electronic ground state. The interactions between electrons and photons within an optical cavity are modeled using the Pauli-Fierz Hamiltonian within the dipole approximation in the length gauge. The integration of QED effects within the CCSD framework contributes to a more accurate and versatile model for simulating complex quantum systems, thereby opening avenues for a better understanding, prediction, and manipulation of various physical phenomena.

Quantum Electrodynamics Coupled-Cluster at Scale: High-Performance Implementation for Complex Systems

Nicholas P. Bauman, Himadri Pathak, Marcus D. Liebenthal +4 more

Coupled-cluster theory (CC) is a highly accurate and versatile method for simulating complex interactions within quantum systems. The extension of CC theory to model mixed electron-photon processes with quantum electrodynamics (QED) has improved our capability to predict cavity-modified chemistry, a field where photons are used as cost-effective and eco-friendly alternatives to catalyze/inhibit chemical reactions. However, calculations with CC methods, even without incorporating QED effects, are often prohibitively expensive. Simulations of larger systems require scalable infrastructures that exist for traditional CC methods but not for QED-CC methods. As such, we present a GPU-enabled, high-performance, open-source implementation of the quantum electrodynamics coupled-cluster method with single and double excitations (QED-CCSD) within the ExaChem quantum chemistry software package. ExaChem relies on the Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods (TAMM) infrastructure: a parallel heterogeneous tensor library designed to achieve scalable performance on modern heterogeneous supercomputing platforms. We discuss theoretical foundations, algorithmic details, and numerical benchmarks to showcase the larger systems that ExaChem can simulate and how the integration of photonic degrees-of-freedom alters their ground-state properties.

Accelerating Coupled-Cluster Calculations with GPUs: An Implementation of the Density-Fitted CCSD(T) Approach for Heterogeneous Computing Architectures Using OpenMP Directives

Dipayan Datta, Mark S. Gordon

An algorithm is presented for the coupled-cluster singles, doubles, and perturbative triples correction [CCSD(T)] method based on the density fitting or the resolution-of-the-identity (RI) approximation for performing calculations on heterogeneous computing platforms composed of multicore CPUs and graphics processing units (GPUs). The directive-based approach to GPU offloading offered by the OpenMP application programming interface has been employed to adapt the most compute-intensive terms in the RI-CCSD amplitude equations with computational costs scaling as O ( N O 2 N V 4 ), O ( N O 3 N V 3 ), and O ( N O 4 N V 2 ) (where N O and N V denote the numbers of correlated occupied and virtual orbitals, respectively) and the perturbative triples correction to execute on GPU architectures. The pertinent tensor contractions are performed using an accelerated math library such as cuBLAS or hipBLAS. Optimal strategies are discussed for splitting large data arrays into tiles to fit them into the relatively small memory space of the GPUs, while also minimizing the low-bandwidth CPU–GPU data transfers. The performance of the hybrid CPU–GPU RI-CCSD(T) code is demonstrated on pre-exascale supercomputers composed of heterogeneous nodes equipped with NVIDIA Tesla V100 and A100 GPUs and on the world’s first exascale supercomputer named “Frontier”, the nodes of which consist of AMD MI250X GPUs. Speedups within the range 4–8× relative to the recently reported CPU-only algorithm are obtained for the GPU-offloaded terms in the RI-CCSD amplitude equations. Applications to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons containing 16–66 carbon atoms demonstrate that the acceleration of the hybrid CPU–GPU code for the perturbative triples correction relative to the CPU-only code increases with the molecule size, attaining a speedup of 5.7× for the largest circumovalene molecule (C 66 H 20 ). The GPU-offloaded code enables the computation of the perturbative triples correction for the C 60 molecule using the cc-pVDZ/aug-cc-pVTZ-RI basis sets in 7 min on Frontier when using 12,288 AMD GPUs with a parallel efficiency of 83.1%.

Implementation of Tensor Network Simulation TN-Sim under NWQ-Sim

Aaron C. Hoyt, Jonathan S. Bersson, Sean Garner +2 more

Large-scale tensor network simulations are crucial for developing robust complexity-theoretic bounds on classical quantum simulation, enabling circuit cutting approaches, and optimizing circuit compilation, all of which aid efficient quantum computation on limited quantum resources. Modern exascale high-performance computing platforms offer significant potential for advancing tensor network quantum circuit simulation capabilities. We implement TN-Sim, a tensor network simulator backend within the NWQ-Sim software package that utilizes the Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods (TAMM) framework to support both distributed HPC-scale computations and local simulations with ITensor. To optimize the scale up in computation across multiple nodes we implement a task based parallelization scheme to demonstrate parallelized gate contraction for wide quantum circuits with many gates per layer. Through the integration of the TAMM framework with Matrix Product State (MPS) tensor network approaches, we deliver a simulation environment that can scale from local systems to HPC clusters. We demonstrate an MPS tensor network simulator running on the state-of-the-art Perlmutter (NVIDIA) supercomputer and discuss the potential portability of this software to HPC clusters such as Frontier (AMD) and Aurora (Intel). We also discuss future improvements including support for different tensor network topologies and enhanced computational efficiency.

Exploring the exact limits of the real-time equation-of-motion coupled cluster cumulant Green’s functions

Bo Peng, Himadri Pathak, Ajay Panyala +3 more

In this paper, we analyze the properties of the recently proposed real-time equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (RT-EOM-CC) cumulant Green's function approach [Rehr et al., J. Chem. Phys. 152, 174113 (2020)]. We specifically focus on identifying the limitations of the original time-dependent coupled cluster (TDCC) ansatz and propose an enhanced double TDCC ansatz, ensuring the exactness in the expansion limit. In addition, we introduce a practical cluster-analysis-based approach for characterizing the peaks in the computed spectral function from the RT-EOM-CC cumulant Green's function approach, which is particularly useful for the assignments of satellite peaks when many-body effects dominate the spectra. Our preliminary numerical tests focus on reproducing, approximating, and characterizing the exact impurity Green's function of the three-site and four-site single impurity Anderson models using the RT-EOM-CC cumulant Green's function approach. The numerical tests allow us to have a direct comparison between the RT-EOM-CC cumulant Green's function approach and other Green's function approaches in the numerical exact limit.

New algorithm for tensor contractions on multi-core CPUs, GPUs, and accelerators enables CCSD and EOM-CCSD calculations with over 1000 basis functions on a single compute node

Ilya A. Kaliman, Anna I. Krylov

A new hardware-agnostic contraction algorithm for tensors of arbitrary symmetry and sparsity is presented. The algorithm is implemented as a stand-alone open-source code libxm. This code is also integrated with general tensor library libtensor and with the Q-Chem quantum-chemistry package. An overview of the algorithm, its implementation, and benchmarks are presented. Similarly to other tensor software, the algorithm exploits efficient matrix multiplication libraries and assumes that tensors are stored in a block-tensor form. The distinguishing features of the algorithm are: (i) efficient repackaging of the individual blocks into large matrices and back, which affords efficient graphics processing unit (GPU)-enabled calculations without modifications of higher-level codes; (ii) fully asynchronous data transfer between disk storage and fast memory. The algorithm enables canonical all-electron coupled-cluster and equation-of-motion coupled-cluster calculations with single and double substitutions (CCSD and EOM-CCSD) with over 1000 basis functions on a single quad-GPU machine. We show that the algorithm exhibits predicted theoretical scaling for canonical CCSD calculations, O(N6), irrespective of the data size on disk. © 2017 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
