Efficient representation of quantum many-body states with deep neural networks

Xun Gao, L.-M. Duan

Abstract Part of the challenge for quantum many-body problems comes from the difficulty of representing large-scale quantum states, which in general requires an exponentially large number of parameters. Neural networks provide a powerful tool to represent quantum many-body states. An important open question is what characterizes the representational power of deep and shallow neural networks, which is of fundamental interest due to the popularity of deep learning methods. Here, we give a proof that, assuming a widely believed computational complexity conjecture, a deep neural network can efficiently represent most physical states, including the ground states of many-body Hamiltonians and states generated by quantum dynamics, while a shallow network representation with a restricted Boltzmann machine cannot efficiently represent some of those states.

Abstract Quantum state tomography is a crucial technique for characterizing the state of a quantum system, which is essential for many applications in quantum technologies. In recent years, there has been growing interest in leveraging neural networks to enhance the efficiency and accuracy of quantum state tomography. However, versatile methods that are broadly applicable across diverse reconstruction scenarios remain relatively underexplored. In this paper, we present two neural network-based approaches for both pure and mixed quantum state tomography: Restricted Feature Based Neural Network and Mixed States Neural Network, evaluate its effectiveness in comparison to existing neural network-based methods. We demonstrate that our proposed methods can achieve state-of-the-art results in reconstructing mixed quantum states from experimental data. Our work highlights the potential of neural networks in facilitating the development of quantum technologies. Source code is publicly available at https://github.com/luutn2002/uni-qst
