Abstract

Neural networks have been proposed as efficient numerical wave function Ans\"atze, which can be used to variationally search a wide range of functional forms for ground-state solutions. These neural network methods are also advantageous in that more variational parameters and system degrees of freedom can be easily added. We benchmark the methodology by using neural networks to study several different integrable bosonic quantum systems in one dimension and compare our results to the exact solutions. While testing the scalability of the procedure to systems with many particles, we also introduce using symmetric function inputs to the neural network to enforce exchange symmetries of indistinguishable particles.

Machine learning one-dimensional spinless trapped fermionic systems with neural-network quantum states

J. W. T. Keeble, M. Drissi, Abel Rojo-Francàs +2 more

We compute the ground-state properties of fully polarized, trapped, one-dimensional fermionic systems interacting through a Gaussian potential. We use an antisymmetric artificial neural network, or neural quantum state, as an Ansatz for the wave function and use machine learning techniques to variationally minimize the energy of systems from two to six particles. We provide extensive benchmarks for this toy model with other many-body methods, including exact diagonalization and the Hartree-Fock approximation. The neural quantum state provides the best energies across a wide range of interaction strengths. We find very different ground states depending on the sign of the interaction. In the nonperturbative repulsive regime, the system asymptotically reaches crystalline order. In contrast, the strongly attractive regime shows signs of bosonization. The neural quantum state continuously learns these different phases with an almost constant number of parameters and a very modest increase in computational time with the number of particles.

Symmetries and Many-Body Excitations with Neural-Network Quantum States

Kenny Choo, Giuseppe Carleo, Nicolas Regnault +1 more

Artificial neural networks have been recently introduced as a general ansatz to represent many-body wave functions. In conjunction with variational Monte Carlo calculations, this ansatz has been applied to find Hamiltonian ground states and their energies. Here, we provide extensions of this method to study excited states, a central task in several many-body quantum calculations. First, we give a prescription that allows us to target eigenstates of a (nonlocal) symmetry of the Hamiltonian. Second, we give an algorithm to compute low-lying excited states without symmetries. We demonstrate our approach with both restricted Boltzmann machines and feed-forward neural networks. Results are shown for the one-dimensional spin-1/2 Heisenberg model, and for the one-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model. When comparing to exact results, we obtain good agreement for a large range of excited-states energies. Interestingly, we find that deep networks typically outperform shallow architectures for high-energy states.

Efficient solutions of fermionic systems using artificial neural networks

Even Marius Nordhagen, Jane Kim, Bryce Fore +2 more

In this study, we explore the similarities and differences between variational Monte Carlo techniques that employ conventional and artificial neural network representations of the ground-state wave function for fermionic systems. Our primary focus is on shallow neural network architectures, specifically the restricted Boltzmann machine, and we examine unsupervised learning algorithms that are appropriate for modeling complex many-body correlations. We assess the advantages and drawbacks of conventional and neural network wave functions by applying them to a range of circular quantum dot systems. Our findings, which include results for systems containing up to 90 electrons, emphasize the efficient implementation of these methods on both homogeneous and heterogeneous high-performance computing facilities.

Deep neural networks as variational solutions for correlated open quantum systems

Johannes Mellak, Enrico Arrigoni, Wolfgang von der Linden

Abstract In this work we apply deep neural networks to find the non-equilibrium steady state solution to correlated open quantum many-body systems. Motivated by the ongoing search to find more powerful representations of (mixed) quantum states, we design a simple prototypical convolutional neural network and show that parametrizing the density matrix directly with more powerful models can yield better variational ansatz functions and improve upon results reached by neural density operator based on the restricted Boltzmann machine. Hereby we give up the explicit restriction to positive semi-definite density matrices. However, this is fulfilled again to good approximation by optimizing the parameters. The great advantage of this approach is that it opens up the possibility of exploring more complex network architectures that can be tailored to specific physical properties. We show how translation invariance can be enforced effortlessly and reach better results with fewer parameters. We present results for the dissipative one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model and a two-dimensional dissipative Heisenberg model compared to exact values.

Method to Solve Quantum Few-Body Problems with Artificial Neural Networks

Hiroki Saito

A machine learning technique to obtain the ground states of quantum few-body systems using artificial neural networks is developed. Bosons in continuous space are considered and a neural network is optimized in such a way that when particle positions are input into the network, the ground-state wave function is output from the network. The method is applied to the Calogero-Sutherland model in one-dimensional space and Efimov bound states in three-dimensional space.
