The study of integrable systems has led to significant advancements in our understanding of many-body physics. We design a series of numerical experiments to analyze the integrability of a mass-imbalanced two-body system through energy-level statistics and deep learning of wave functions. The level spacing distributions are fitted by a Brody distribution and the fitting parameter ω is found to separate the integrable and nonintegrable mass ratios by a critical line ω=0. The convolutional neural network built from the probability density images could identify the transition points between integrable and nonintegrable systems with high accuracy, yet in a much shorter computation time. A brilliant example of the network's ability is to identify a new integrable mass ratio 1/3 by learning from the known integrable case of equal mass, with a remarkable network confidence of 98.22%. The robustness of our neural networks is further enhanced by adversarial learning, where samples are generated by standard and quantum perturbations mixed in the probability density images and the wave functions, respectively.

Abstract The relative motion of three impenetrable particles on a ring, in our case two identical fermions and one impurity, is isomorphic to a triangular quantum billiard. Depending on the ratio κ of the impurity and fermion masses, the billiards can be integrable or non-integrable (also referred to in the main text as chaotic). To set the stage, we first investigate the energy level distributions of the billiards as a function of 1/κ ∈ [0, 1] and find no evidence of integrable cases beyond the limiting values 1/κ = 1 and 1/κ = 0. Then, we use machine learning tools to analyze properties of probability distributions of individual quantum states. We find that convolutional neural networks can correctly classify integrable and non-integrable states. The decisive features of the wave functions are the normalization and a large number of zero elements, corresponding to the existence of a nodal line. The network achieves typical accuracies of 97%, suggesting that machine learning tools can be used to analyze and classify the morphology of probability densities obtained in theory or experiment.

In the past decades, methods to solve the ground state given a quantum many-body Hamiltonian have been well established. In this work, we consider an inverse problem and demonstrate that convolutional neural network (CNN) can predict the physical parameters of interacting Hamiltonians, such as coupling strengths and magnetic fields, providing the quantum many-body wave-functions as the ground states. We propose QubismNet that consists of two main parts: the Qubism map that visualizes the ground states (or the purified reduced density matrices) as images, and a CNN that maps the images to the target physical parameters. QubismNet exhibits impressive powers of learning and generalization on several quantum spin models. While the training samples are restricted to the states from certain ranges of the parameters, QubismNet can accurately predict the parameters of the states beyond such training regions. For instance, our results show that QubismNet can predict the magnetic fields near the critical point by learning from the states away from the critical vicinity. Our work provides a data-driven way to infer the Hamiltonians that give the designed ground states, and therefore would benefit the existing and future generations of quantum technologies such as Hamiltonian-based quantum simulations.
The study of interacting quantum many-body systems is constrained by the exponential growth of the Hilbert space with system size, which limits both numerical simulations and theoretical understanding. This thesis explores how the interplay between disorder and interactions shapes localization and ergodicity in quantum many-body systems, using the exact diagonalization method, and how machine learning can serve as an alternative approach for studying these systems. We first investigate the many-body localization problem in a one-dimensional SU(2)-invariant random antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain using exact and sparse matrix diagonalization methods. By analyzing energy level gap-ratio statistics, participation ratio, entanglement entropy and the entanglement spectral parameter as a function of disorder strength under di!erent random coupling distributions, we identify clear qualitative di!erences from the widely studied random field Heisenberg chain. For system sizes up to L = 24, signatures of localized behaviour are much less pronounced than in the case of the random field model. Motivated by the limitations of conventional numerical methods, we examine machine learning as a scalable paradigm for many-body physics. Using the Bose- Hubbard model in one and two dimensions as a benchmark, we test HUBBARDNET, a deep neural network architecture, by replacing standard stochastic gradient descent with adaptive moment estimation (ADAM), adjusting the learning rate for improved optimization, and introducing physics-informed output activations that can resolve extremely small wave-function amplitudes. This approach yields ground-state energy errors reduced by orders of magnitude and wave function fidelities exceeding 99%, remaining robust across four decades of interaction strength and over superfluid, Mott-insulating, and quantum chaotic regimes. Beyond energy prediction, the trained models accurately reproduce generalized inverse participation ratios and multifractal dimensions for ground and excited states, capturing localization, delocalization, and multifractality across the spectrum, with excited-state training explicitly guided by fractal dimensions that encode the multifractal properties of the wave functions.
One of the main reasons why the physics of quantum many-body systems is hard \nlies in the curse of dimensionality: \nThe number of states of such systems increases exponentially with the number of degrees of freedom involved. \nAs a result, computations for realistic systems become intractable, \nand even numerical methods are limited to comparably small system sizes. \nMany efforts in modern physics research are therefore concerned with \nfinding efficient representations of quantum states and \nclever approximations schemes that would allow them to characterize physical systems of interest. \n \nMeanwhile, Deep Learning (DL) has solved many non-scientific problems \nthat have been unaccessible to conventional methods for a similar reason. \nThe concept underlying DL is to extract knowledge from data \nby identifying patterns and regularities. \nThe remarkable success of DL has excited many physicists about \nthe prospect of leveraging its power to solve intractable problems in physics. \nAt the same time, DL turned out to be an interesting complex many-body \nproblem in itself. \nIn contrast to its widespread empirical applications, \nthe theoretical foundation of DL is strongly underdeveloped. \nIn particular, as long as its decision-making process and result interpretability remain opaque, \nDL can not claim the status of a scientific tool. \n \nIn this thesis, I explore the interface between DL and quantum many-body physics, \nand investigate DL both as a tool and as a subject of study. \nThe first project presented here is a theory-based study of \na fundamental open question about the role of width and the number of parameters in deep neural networks. \nIn this work, we consider a DL setup for the image recognition task on standard benchmarking datasets. \nWe combine controlled experiments with a theoretical analysis, including analytical calculations for a toy model. \nThe other three works focus on the application of Restricted Boltzmann Machines as generative models \nfor the task of wavefunction reconstruction from measurement data on a quantum many-body system. \nFirst, we implement this approach as a software package, making it available as a tool for experimentalists. \nFollowing the idea that physics problems can be used to characterize DL tools, \nwe then use our extensive knowledge of this setup to conduct a systematic study of \nhow the RBM complexity scales with the complexity of the physical system. \nFinally, in a follow-up study we focus on the effects of parameter pruning techniques \non the RBM and its scaling behavior.
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.
