Beyond-classical simulations using a quantum annealer
2025年5月23日(金) 10:00 - 11:15
Alberto Nocera (Senior Staff Scientist, Stewart Blusson Quantum Matter Institute, The University of British Columbia, Canada)
Join us for an electrifying online zoom talk featuring Dr. Alberto Nocera, the author of the groundbreaking Science article detailing D-Wave's quantum annealer outperforming classical supercomputers in simulating complex magnetic materials. D-Wave’s quantum annealer uses quantum annealing to efficiently solve optimization problems by finding low-energy states of complex systems. Unlike IBM and Quantinuum’s gate-based quantum computers, which are universal and execute algorithms via quantum circuits, D-Wave’s system is specialized but currently more scalable and practical for certain applications. While gate-based systems are still limited by noise and error rates, D-Wave’s annealer recently demonstrated a quantum advantage in simulating magnetic materials, outperforming classical supercomputers. This highlights a key difference: D-Wave excels in specific tasks today, while IBM and Quantinuum aim for broader, long-term quantum computational capabilities. Talk Abstract: Solving the equations governing the dynamics of interacting many-particle quantum systems is one of the biggest challenges in modern science. In 1982, Richard P. Feynman envisioned that the best way to emulate the behavior of many-particle quantum systems is to use another quantum system, starting the field of quantum simulation. Rather than seeking to solve the fundamental equations of quantum mechanics using conventional or classical computers, in quantum simulation one seeks to simulate a quantum system using an "analog device" mimicking its behavior, hoping to access solutions which are not easy to compute otherwise. In this talk, using the quantum annealing simulator device developed by D-Wave as a main tool, I will show that the use of tensor network methods has a key role in quantum simulation: besides benchmarking the quantum device, they can assess and help establishing its functionality beyond the classically simulatable regime [1].

Exploiting hidden low-rank structures in quantum field theories
2025年2月24日(月) 13:00 - 14:30
品岡 寛 (埼玉大学)
Tensor networks are a powerful tool for compressing wave functions and density matrices of quantum systems in physics. Recent developments have shown that tensor network techniques can efficiently compress many functions beyond these traditional objects. Notable examples include the solutions to turbulence in Navier–Stokes equations [1] and the computation of Feynman diagrams [2,3]. These advancements have heralded a new era in the use of tensor networks for expediting the resolution of various complex equations in physics. This talk will provide an overview of our work utilizing tensor networks for computations based on quantum field theories. First, we will introduce the Quantics/quantized Tensor Train (QTT) representation [3,4] for compressing the space-time dependence of correlation functions in quantum systems [5], leveraging inherent length-scale separation for efficient representation. Second, we will present a robust tool named "Quantics Tensor Cross Interpolation" [6], which learns a quantics low-rank representation of a given function. Applications include the computation of Brillouin zone integrals [6] and integration of complex self-energy Feynman diagrams for multiorbital electron-phonon impurity models [7]. Finally, we will introduce new algorithms [8] and open-source libraries [9] for tensor cross interpolation.

In this seminar, I will begin by discussing the fundamentals of noise modeling in quantum systems, followed by an overview of QEM techniques, including extrapolation, probabilistic error cancellation (PEC), virtual distillation, quantum subspace expansion, and Clifford data regression. Next, I will present advanced QEM methods, such as the stochastic PEC approach, which mitigates the effects of Lindblad terms in Lindblad master equations and the generalized quantum subspace expansion, which is a unified framework of QEM. I will also explore recent research on the information-theoretic analysis of QEM, shedding light on its fundamental limits and connections to non-Markovian dynamics. Furthermore, I will discuss studies combining QEM with quantum error correction to enhance the reliability of computations in the early fault-tolerant quantum computing era. Lastly, I will highlight the relevance of hybrid tensor networks, particularly their connections to quantum subspace expansion techniques.

The Long Road towards Quantum Simulations of the Standard Model
2024年12月6日(金) 11:00 - 12:00
Dorota Grabowska (Research Assistant Professor, InQubator for Quantum Simulations (IQuS), University of Washington, USA)
The Standard Model of Particle Physics, encapsulating the vast majority of our understanding of the fundamental nature of our Universe, is at its core a gauge theory. Much of the richness of its phenomenology can be traced back to the complicated interplay of its various gauged interactions. While massive theoretical and algorithmic developments in classical computing have allowed us to probe many of these aspects, there remain a plethora of open questions that do not seem amenable to these methods. With a fundamentally different computational strategy, quantum computers hold the potential to address these open questions. However, a long road lies ahead of us before this potential may be realized. In this talk, I discuss a key step on this journey: constructing lattice gauge Hamiltonians that can be efficiently simulated on digital quantum devices. In particular, I focus on recent work that develops a fully gauge fixed Hamiltonian for SU(2) without fermions. Not only is this formulation well-suited for "close to continuum" simulations, it is also significantly less non-local than might be initially expected.

菊池 勇太 (クオンティニュアム株式会社 Quantum Algorithms and Machine Learning Research Scientist)
エルマル・ルラーバイ (HPC Architecture and Performance Engineer, National Energy Research Scientific Computing Center (NERSC), Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL), USA)Speaker: Yuta Kikuchi Title: Simulating Floquet scrambling circuits on trapped-ion quantum computers Abstract: Complex quantum many-body dynamics spread initially localized quantum information across the entire system. Information scrambling refers to such a process, whose simulation is one of the promising applications of quantum computing. We demonstrate the Hayden-Preskill recovery protocol and the interferometric protocol for calculating out-of-time-ordered correlators to study the scrambling property of a one-dimensional kicked-Ising model on 20-qubit trapped-ion quantum processors. The simulated quantum circuits have a geometrically local structure that exhibits the ballistic growth of entanglement, resulting in the circuit depth being linear in the number of qubits for the entire state to be scrambled. We experimentally confirm the growth of signals in the Hayden-Preskill recovery protocol and the decay of out-of-time-ordered correlators at late times. As an application of the created scrambling circuits, we also experimentally demonstrate the calculation of the microcanonical expectation values of local operators adopting the idea of thermal pure quantum states. Speaker: Ermal Rrapaj Title: Exact block encoding of imaginary time evolution with universal quantum neural networks Abstract: Quantum computers have been widely speculated to offer significant advantages in obtaining the ground state of difficult Hamiltonian in chemistry and physics. The imaginary-time evolution method is a well-known approach used for obtaining the ground state in quantum many-body problems on a classical computer. In this work we develop a practical method for such purpose. We develop a constructive approach to generate quantum neural networks capable of representing the exact thermal states of all many-body qubit Hamiltonians. The Trotter expansion of the imaginary-time propagator is implemented through an exact block encoding by means of a unitary, restricted Boltzmann machine architecture. Marginalization over the hidden-layer neurons (auxiliary qubits) creates the non-unitary action on the visible layer. Then, we introduce a unitary deep Boltzmann machine architecture, in which the hidden-layer qubits are allowed to couple laterally to other hidden qubits. We prove that this wave function ansatz is closed under the action of the imaginary-time propagator and, more generally, can represent the action of a universal set of quantum gate operations. We provide analytic expressions for the coefficients for both architectures, thus enabling exact network representations of thermal states without stochastic optimization of the network parameters. In the limit of large imaginary time, the ansatz yields the ground state of the system. The number of qubits grows linearly with the system size and total imaginary time for a fixed interaction order. Both networks can be readily implemented on quantum hardware via mid-circuit measurements of auxiliary qubits. If only one auxiliary qubit is measured and reset, the circuit depth scales linearly with imaginary time and system size, while the width is constant. Alternatively, one can employ a number of auxiliary qubits linearly proportional to the system size, and circuit depth grows linearly with imaginary time only.

Using a trapped ion quantum computer for hamiltonian simulations
2024年2月28日(水) 10:30 - 12:00
リナルディ エンリコ (クオンティニュアム株式会社 Quantum Machine Learning and Algorithms Senior Research Scientist)
Trapped ion quantum computers, like the H-series quantum hardware by Quantinuum, robustly encode quantum information in long lived and precise qubits. However, utilizing the hardware efficiently requires a full-stack workflow from software libraries to hardware compilers. In this talk we introduce the relevant elements of this stack in the context of solving the quantum dynamics of a spin system on H-series hardware: we start from the definition of the Hamiltonian operator in the qubit Hilbert space using the open-source pytket python library and we define the quantum circuits in measurements to run, on a simulator first and on hardware later.

Energy spectrum and time evolution of a SU(2) pure gauge lattice theory on a quantum annealer
2023年12月18日(月) 14:00 - 15:00
Emanuele Mendicelli (Postdoctoral Research Associate, Department of Mathematical Sciences, University of Liverpool, UK)
Lattice gauge theory is an indispensable tool for non-Abelian fields, such as those in quantum chromodynamics where lattice results have been of central importance for several decades. Recent studies suggest that quantum hardware could extend the reach of lattice gauge theory to inaccessible phenomena due to the need for an exponentially large amount of resources, the so-called sign problem. Among the available quantum hardware gate-based quantum computer are well know but less common quantum annealer can play a role too. In this talk we briefly report one of the first use of D-Wave quantum annealer to study the energy spectrum and the time evolution of a SU(2) pure gauge lattice theory in its Hamiltonian formulation. In particular we present how to extract the energy spectrum using the quantum Quantum Annealer Eigensolver algorithm and perform the time evolution using the Kitaev-Feynman clock states. Despite the nosy hardware, no error mitigation techniques were needed but the usability of the D-Wave hardware was extended by simply block-diagonalizing the Hamiltonian.
