Our method introduces a neural network architecture specifically designed to represent bosonic quantum states on a 1D lattice chain. We successfully achieve the ground state of the Bose-Hubbard model, demonstrating the superiority of the adaptive momentum optimizer for convergence speed and stability. Notably, our approach offers flexibility in simulating various lattice geometries and potentially larger system sizes, making it a valuable tool for exploring complex quantum phenomena. This work represents a substantial advancement in the field of quantum simulation, opening new possibilities for investigating previously challenging systems.

Solving the Schrödinger equation for interacting many-body quantum systems faces computational challenges due to exponential scaling with system size. This complexity limits the study of important phenomena in materials science and physics. We develop an Artificial Neural Network (ANN)-driven algorithm to simulate fermionic systems on lattices. Our method uses Pauli matrices to represent quantum states, incorporates Markov Chain Monte Carlo sampling, and leverages an adaptive momentum optimizer. We demonstrate the algorithm's accuracy by simulating the Heisenberg Hamiltonian on a one-dimensional lattice, achieving results with an error in the order of 10−4 compared to exact diagonalization. Furthermore, we successfully model a magnetic phase transition in a two-dimensional lattice under an applied magnetic field. Importantly, our approach avoids the sign problem common to traditional Fermionic Monte Carlo methods, enabling the investigation of frustrated systems. This work demonstrates the potential of ANN-based algorithms for efficient simulation of complex quantum systems, opening avenues for discoveries in condensed matter physics and materials science.
The design of deep neural network (DNN) architectures is a complex and computationally intensive task. Traditional methods often rely on manual tuning or random search, which are inefficient in exploring the exponentially large architectural space. This paper proposes a novel approach to DNN architecture optimization leveraging quantum-inspired algorithms. Specifically, we explore the application of algorithms inspired by quantum annealing and quantum Monte Carlo methods to efficiently search for optimal DNN configurations. Our framework aims to minimize the trade-off between accuracy, latency, and energy consumption – key considerations in real-world DNN deployments. We present a theoretical framework and outline a methodology for integrating these quantum-inspired techniques. The core idea is to map the architectural design problem onto a suitable quantum system, allowing for the parallel exploration of potential solutions. This research provides a new direction for automated DNN design, potentially leading to significant improvements in performance and efficiency.
The field of quantum chemistry has long been defined by the central computational challenge of the quantum many-body fermionic system problem, main the electronic Schrödinger equation. This exponential scaling makes it computationally intractable to solve, the exact governing electronic Schrödinger equation. Approximation methods have been developed, ranging from the widely used Density Functional Theory (DFT) to Coupled Cluster (CC) theory. While powerful, these conventional approaches often involve controlled truncations which caused a trade-off between accuracy, leaving many systems—particularly those with strong electron correlation—beyond the reach of ab initio simulation. Furthermore, the famous fermionic sign oscillation problem is particularly severe in stochastic methods like Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC). 1 Traditional Ansätze are also frequently engineered specifically for particular systems, which results in a fragmentation of results and fundamentally limits the transferability.

Abstract Computing the ground state of interacting quantum matter is a long-standing challenge, especially for complex two-dimensional systems. Recent developments have highlighted the potential of neural quantum states to solve the quantum many-body problem by encoding the many-body wavefunction into artificial neural networks. However, this method has faced the critical limitation that existing optimization algorithms are not suitable for training modern large-scale deep network architectures. Here, we introduce a minimum-step stochastic-reconfiguration optimization algorithm, which allows us to train deep neural quantum states with up to 10 6 parameters. We demonstrate our method for paradigmatic frustrated spin-1/2 models on square and triangular lattices, for which our trained deep networks approach machine precision and yield improved variational energies compared to existing results. Equipped with our optimization algorithm, we find numerical evidence for gapless quantum-spin-liquid phases in the considered models, an open question to date. We present a method that captures the emergent complexity in quantum many-body problems through the expressive power of large-scale artificial neural networks.
