quantum system interacting with other quantum systems experiences these other systems asan effective environment. The environment is the result of integrating out all the other degrees of freedom in the network, and can be represented by a Feynman-Vernon influence functional (IF)acting on system of interest. A network is characterized by the constitutive systems, how they interact, and the topology of those interactions. Here we show that for networks having the topology of locally tree-like graphs, the Feynman-Vernon influence functional can be determined in a new version of the cavity or Belief Propagation (BP) method. In the BP update stage, cavity IFs are mapped to cavity IFs, while in the BP output stage cavity IFs are combined to output IFs. We compute the fixed point of of this version of BP for harmonic oscillator systems interacting uniformly. We discuss Replica Symmetry and the effects of disorder in this context.

The task of classifying the entanglement properties of a multipartite quantum state poses a remarkable challenge due to the exponentially increasing number of ways in which quantum systems can share quantum correlations. Tackling such challenge requi res a combination of sophisticated theoretical and computational techniques. In this paper we combine machine-learning tools and the theory of quantum entanglement to perform entanglement classification for multipartite qubit systems in pure states. We use a parameterisation of quantum systems using artificial neural networks in a restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM) architecture, known as Neural Network Quantum States (NNS), whose entanglement properties can be deduced via a constrained, reinforcement learning procedure. In this way, Separable Neural Network States (SNNS) can be used to build entanglement witnesses for any target state.
Adiabatic quantum optimization offers a new method for solving hard optimization problems. In this paper we calculate median adiabatic times (in seconds) determined by the minimum gap during the adiabatic quantum optimization for an NP-hard Ising spi n glass instance class with up to 128 binary variables. Using parameters obtained from a realistic superconducting adiabatic quantum processor, we extract the minimum gap and matrix elements using high performance Quantum Monte Carlo simulations on a large-scale Internet-based computing platform. We compare the median adiabatic times with the median running times of two classical solvers and find that, for the considered problem sizes, the adiabatic times for the simulated processor architecture are about 4 and 6 orders of magnitude shorter than the two classical solvers times. This shows that if the adiabatic time scale were to determine the computation time, adiabatic quantum optimization would be significantly superior to those classical solvers for median spin glass problems of at least up to 128 qubits. We also discuss important additional constraints that affect the performance of a realistic system.
We investigate the occurrence of the phenomenon of many-body localization (MBL) on a D-Wave 2000Q programmable quantum annealer. We study a spin-1/2 transverse-field Ising model defined on a Chimera connectivity graph, with random exchange interactio ns and random longitudinal fields. On this system we experimentally observe a transition from an ergodic phase to an MBL phase. We first theoretically show that the MBL transition is induced by a critical disorder strength for individual energy eigenstates in a Chimera cell, which follows from the analysis of the mean half-system block entanglement, as measured by the von Neumann entropy. We show the existence of an area law for the block entanglement over energy eigenstates for the MBL phase, which stands in contrast with an extensive volume scaling in the ergodic phase. The identification of the MBL critical point is performed via the measurement of the maximum variance of the mean block entanglement over the disorder ensemble as a function of the disorder strength. Our results for the energy density phase diagram also show the existence of a many-body mobility edge in the energy spectrum. The time-independent disordered Ising Hamiltonian is then experimentally realized by applying the reverse annealing technique allied with a pause-quench protocol on the D-Wave device. We then characterize the MBL critical point through magnetization measurements at the end of the annealing dynamics, obtaining results compatible with our theoretical predictions for the MBL transition.
We introduce and explore a one-dimensional hybrid quantum circuit model consisting of both unitary gates and projective measurements. While the unitary gates are drawn from a random distribution and act uniformly in the circuit, the measurements are made at random positions and times throughout the system. By varying the measurement rate we can tune between the volume law entangled phase for the random unitary circuit model (no measurements) and a quantum Zeno phase where strong measurements suppress the entanglement growth to saturate in an area-law. Extensive numerical simulations of the quantum trajectories of the many-particle wavefunctions (exploiting Clifford circuitry to access systems up to 512 qubits) provide evidence for a stable weak measurement phase that exhibits volume-law entanglement entropy, with a coefficient decreasing with increasing measurement rate. We also present evidence for a novel continuous quantum dynamical phase transition between the weak measurement phase and the quantum Zeno phase, driven by a competition between the entangling tendencies of unitary evolution and the disentangling tendencies of projective measurements. Detailed steady-state and dynamic critical properties of this novel quantum entanglement transition are accessed.
Classical models with complex energy landscapes represent a perspective avenue for the near-term application of quantum simulators. Until now, many theoretical works studied the performance of quantum algorithms for models with a unique ground state. However, when the classical problem is in a so-called clustering phase, the ground state manifold is highly degenerate. As an example, we consider a 3-XORSAT model defined on simple hypergraphs. The degeneracy of classical ground state manifold translates into the emergence of an extensive number of $Z_2$ symmetries, which remain intact even in the presence of a quantum transverse magnetic field. We establish a general duality approach that restricts the quantum problem to a given sector of conserved $Z_2$ charges and use it to study how the outcome of the quantum adiabatic algorithm depends on the hypergraph geometry. We show that the tree hypergraph which corresponds to a classically solvable instance of the 3-XORSAT problem features a constant gap, whereas the closed hypergraph encounters a second-order phase transition with a gap vanishing as a power-law in the problem size. The duality developed in this work provides a practical tool for studies of quantum models with classically degenerate energy manifold and reveals potential connections between glasses and gauge theories.
