Abstract

We construct the first type of non-Euclidean non-autoregressive neural quantum state (NQS) in the form of the hyperbolic Restricted Boltzmann Machine (HRBM), which is studied in the variational Monte-Carlo (VMC) setting of the Quantum Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (QSK) model whose ground state exhibits volume-law entanglement. Across a 512-fold increase in the Hilbert space dimension corresponding to a system size increase from $N=14$ to $N=24$, HRBM NQS robustly outperforms its Euclidean version, the RBM NQS, in terms of better ground state energy optimization as well as lower Renyi-2 $S_2$ and von Neumann $S_{vN}$ absolute entanglement entropy reconstruction errors. More importantly, for all tested QSK system sizes, HRBM NQS demonstrates a superior expressivity in faithfully reproducing the entire entanglement spectrum of the QSK model from the top eigenvalues down to the tail end across 15 orders of magnitude, while RBM NQS consistently overestimates the sub-dominant modes. This work furnishes a proof-of-concept demonstrating that hyperbolic non-autoregressive NQS ansatze, thanks to the exponential volume of the hyperbolic geometry underlying their constructions, might be more natural at representing volume-law quantum systems than conventional Euclidean NQS. Furthermore, an interesting byproduct of this work is the polynomial scaling result of RBM-type NQS ansatze in the QSK volume-law system as the Hilbert space dimension increases exponentially.

New non-Euclidean neural quantum states from hyperbolic Lorentz recurrent architectures

H. L. Dao

In this work, we construct new non-Euclidean neural quantum states (NQS) based on hyperbolic Lorentz recurrent architectures (RNN/GRU). These constructions, together with the Poincare RNN NQS also newly constructed here, extend the class of previously introduced non-Eucllidean NQS which consists only of Poincare hyperbolic GRU. Using the Heisenberg J1J2 and J1J2J3 models consisting of 100 spins in the Variational Monte Carlo (VMC) setting, we show that the four hyperbolic RNN/GRU NQS variants are always able to furnish better representations of the ground state wavefunctions of the quantum systems than their respective Euclidean counterparts with the same architecture. In our experiments, among the four hyperbolic NQS, Lorentz RNN stands out in particular because despite having almost three times fewer parameters, it is capable of surpassing the more complex Poincare GRU and Lorentz GRU to emerge as the best overall hyperbolic NQS ansatz on many instances involving different J2 and (J2,J3) couplings. Given the findings from this work showing that the four newly constructed hyperbolic RNN/GRU NQS ansatze are able to outperform the well-established Euclidean RNN/GRU NQS in Heisenberg spin models, we establish the utility and efficiency of the hyperbolic Lorentz RNN/GRU NQS as well as the Poincare RNN/GRU NQS for future variational studies of quantum many-body systems, especially those exhibiting a hierarchical structure in the form of the different degrees of nearest-neighbor interactions.

Two-dimensional Hyperbolic RNN Neural Quantum State

H. L. Dao

In the first part of this work, we construct the first type of two-dimensional (2D) hyperbolic neural quantum state (NQS) in the form of the Lorentz 2DRNN (Recurrent Neural Network) and benchmark its performance against the Euclidean 2DRNN in the paradigmatic $N \times N$ 2D Transverse Field Ising Model (2DTFIM) setting with different lattice sizes up to N = 12 at different transverse magnetic field strengths. We find that hyperbolic Lorentz 2DRNN NQS robustly outperforms Euclidean 2DRNN NQS in our experiments when the system is at the phase transition point, where the physics can be described by a conformal field theory (CFT) - known via the AdS/CFT holographic duality to possess an underlying hyperbolic geometry. In the second part of this work, we benchmark the performances of recently introduced one-dimensional (1D) hyperbolic NQS ansatzes (including Poincare RNN/GRU and Lorentz RNN/GRU) against their Euclidean versions in $N \times N$ 2DTFIM, converted to a one-dimensional sequence. The findings extend our previous results showing that 1D hyperbolic NQS robustly outperforms 1D Euclidean NQS, thanks to the combined effects of the induced 1st and Nth neighbor interaction hierarchy and the CFT physics at criticality. While studies on larger system sizes remain future work, this study serves as a proof-of-concept for the utility, effectiveness, and superior performance of 1D and 2D hyperbolic NQS ansatzes compared to conventional Euclidean NQS models in many-body quantum systems - particularly those exhibiting structural hierarchy, criticality, or a combination of both.

Neural Quantum States in Non-Stabilizer Regimes: Benchmarks with Atomic Nuclei

James W. T. Keeble, Alessandro Lovato, Caroline E. P. Robin

As neural networks are known to efficiently represent classes of tensor-network states as well as volume-law-entangled states, identifying which properties determine the representational capabilities of neural quantum states (NQS) remains an open question. We construct NQS representations of ground states of medium-mass atomic nuclei, which typically exhibit significant entanglement and non-stabilizerness, to study their performance in relation to the quantum complexity of the target state. Leveraging a second-quantized formulation of NQS tailored for nuclear-physics applications, we perform calculations in active orbital spaces using a restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM), a prototypical NQS ansatz. For a fixed number of configurations, we find that states with larger non-stabilizerness are systematically harder to learn, as evidenced by reduced accuracy. This finding suggests that non-stabilizerness is a primary factor governing the compression and representational efficiency of RBMs in entangled regimes, and motivates extending these studies to more sophisticated network architectures.

Quantum Correlations in Ising Spin Rings using an RBM Neural-Network State Framework

AkilArasan Vinayagam

The simulation of interacting many-body quantum systems is a central chal- lenge in condensed matter physics due to the exponential growth of the Hilbert space with system size. In this project, we implement a Neural Network Quantum State (NQS) ansatz based on a Complex Restricted Boltzmann Machine (RBM) to solve for the ground state of the 1D Transverse Field Ising Model (TFIM). Using Variational Monte Carlo (VMC) optimization via Stochastic Reconfiguration (SR), we successfully train the network to approximate the ground state wave function across the paramagnetic-ferromagnetic phase transition. We benchmark our results against Exact Diagonalization (ED) for small systems (N = 12), demonstrating high accuracy in ground state energy estimation. Furthermore, we investigate quantum correlations and order parameters, specifically the transverse magnetization mx and longitudinal spin-spin correlations Czz(r), highlighting the RBM’s ability to capture long-range order and critical behavior near the quantum critical point hx/J = 1.

Entanglement and optimization within autoregressive neural quantum states

Andrew Jreissaty, Hang Zhang, Jairo C. Quijano +2 more

Neural quantum states (NQSs) are powerful variational ansätze capable of representing highly entangled quantum many-body wavefunctions. While the average entanglement properties of ensembles of restricted Boltzmann machines are well understood, the entanglement structure of autoregressive NQSs such as recurrent neural networks and transformers remains largely unexplored. We perform large-scale simulations of ensembles of random autoregressive wavefunctions for chains of up to 256 spins and uncover signatures of transitions in their average entanglement scaling, entanglement spectra, and correlation functions. We show that the standard softmax normalization of the wavefunction suppresses entanglement and fluctuations, and introduce a square modulus normalization function that restores them. Finally, we connect the insights gained from our entanglement and activation function analysis to initialization strategies for finding the ground states of strongly correlated Hamiltonians via variational Monte Carlo.

Parametric Quantum State Tomography with HyperRBMs

Simon Tonner, Viet T. Tran, Richard Kueng

Quantum state tomography (QST) is essential for validating quantum devices but suffers from exponential scaling in system size. Neural-network quantum states, such as Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs), can efficiently parameterize individual many-body quantum states and have been successfully used for QST. However, existing approaches are point-wise and require retraining at every parameter value in a phase diagram. We introduce a parametric QST framework based on a hypernetwork that conditions an RBM on Hamiltonian control parameters, enabling a single model to represent an entire family of quantum ground states. Applied to the transverse-field Ising model, our HyperRBM achieves high-fidelity reconstructions from local Pauli measurements on 1D and 2D lattices across both phases and through the critical region. Crucially, the model accurately reproduces the fidelity susceptibility and identifies the quantum phase transition without prior knowledge of the critical point. These results demonstrate that hypernetwork-modulated neural quantum states provide an efficient and scalable route to tomographic reconstruction across full phase diagrams.
