We develop two cutting-edge approaches to construct deep neural networks representing the purified finite-temperature states of quantum many-body systems. Both methods commonly aim to represent the Gibbs state by a highly expressive neural-network wave function, exemplifying the idea of purification. The first method is an entirely deterministic approach to generate deep Boltzmann machines representing the purified Gibbs state exactly. This strongly assures the remarkable flexibility of the ansatz which can fully exploit the quantum-to-classical mapping. The second method employs stochastic sampling to optimize the network parameters such that the imaginary time evolution is well approximated within the expressibility of neural networks. Numerical demonstrations for transverse-field Ising models and Heisenberg models show that our methods are powerful enough to investigate the finite-temperature properties of strongly correlated quantum many-body systems, even when the problematic effect of frustration is present.

The variational wave functions based on neural networks have recently started to be recognized as a powerful ansatz to represent quantum many-body states accurately. In order to show the usefulness of the method among all available numerical methods,
it is imperative to investigate the performance in challenging many-body problems for which the exact solutions are not available. Here, we construct a variational wave function with one of the simplest neural networks, the restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM), and apply it to a fundamental but unsolved quantum spin Hamiltonian, the two-dimensional $J_1$-$J_2$ Heisenberg model on the square lattice. We supplement the RBM wave function with quantum-number projections, which restores the symmetry of the wave function and makes it possible to calculate excited states. Then, we perform a systematic investigation of the performance of the RBM. We show that, with the help of the symmetry, the RBM wave function achieves state-of-the-art accuracy both in ground-state and excited-state calculations. The study shows a practical guideline on how we achieve accuracy in a controlled manner.
Calculating the spectral function of two dimensional systems is arguably one of the most pressing challenges in modern computational condensed matter physics. While efficient techniques are available in lower dimensions, two dimensional systems prese
nt insurmountable hurdles, ranging from the sign problem in quantum Monte Carlo (MC), to the entanglement area law in tensor network based methods. We hereby present a variational approach based on a Chebyshev expansion of the spectral function and a neural network representation for the wave functions. The Chebyshev moments are obtained by recursively applying the Hamiltonian and projecting on the space of variational states using a modified natural gradient descent method. We compare this approach with a modified approximation of the spectral function which uses a Krylov subspace constructed from the Chebyshev wave-functions. We present results for the one-dimensional and two-dimensional Heisenberg model on the square lattice, and compare to those obtained by other methods in the literature.
One of the most fundamental problems in quantum many-body physics is the characterization of correlations among thermal states. Of particular relevance is the thermal area law, which justifies the tensor network approximations to thermal states with
a bond dimension growing polynomially with the system size. In the regime of sufficiently low temperatures, which is particularly important for practical applications, the existing techniques do not yield optimal bounds. Here, we propose a new thermal area law that holds for generic many-body systems on lattices. We improve the temperature dependence from the original $mathcal{O}(beta)$ to $tilde{mathcal{O}}(beta^{2/3})$, thereby suggesting diffusive propagation of entanglement by imaginary time evolution. This qualitatively differs from the real-time evolution which usually induces linear growth of entanglement. We also prove analogous bounds for the Renyi entanglement of purification and the entanglement of formation. Our analysis is based on a polynomial approximation to the exponential function which provides a relationship between the imaginary-time evolution and random walks. Moreover, for one-dimensional (1D) systems with $n$ spins, we prove that the Gibbs state is well-approximated by a matrix product operator with a sublinear bond dimension of $e^{sqrt{tilde{mathcal{O}}(beta log(n))}}$. This proof allows us to rigorously establish, for the first time, a quasi-linear time classical algorithm for constructing an MPS representation of 1D quantum Gibbs states at arbitrary temperatures of $beta = o(log(n))$. Our new technical ingredient is a block decomposition of the Gibbs state, that bears resemblance to the decomposition of real-time evolution given by Haah et al., FOCS18.
A Boltzmann machine is a stochastic neural network that has been extensively used in the layers of deep architectures for modern machine learning applications. In this paper, we develop a Boltzmann machine that is capable of modelling thermodynamic o
bservables for physical systems in thermal equilibrium. Through unsupervised learning, we train the Boltzmann machine on data sets constructed with spin configurations importance-sampled from the partition function of an Ising Hamiltonian at different temperatures using Monte Carlo (MC) methods. The trained Boltzmann machine is then used to generate spin states, for which we compare thermodynamic observables to those computed by direct MC sampling. We demonstrate that the Boltzmann machine can faithfully reproduce the observables of the physical system. Further, we observe that the number of neurons required to obtain accurate results increases as the system is brought close to criticality.
Characterizing states of matter through the lens of their ergodic properties is a fascinating new direction of research. In the quantum realm, the many-body localization (MBL) was proposed to be the paradigmatic ergodicity breaking phenomenon, which
extends the concept of Anderson localization to interacting systems. At the same time, random matrix theory has established a powerful framework for characterizing the onset of quantum chaos and ergodicity (or the absence thereof) in quantum many-body systems. Here we numerically study the spectral statistics of disordered interacting spin chains, which represent prototype models expected to exhibit MBL. We study the ergodicity indicator $g=log_{10}(t_{rm H}/t_{rm Th})$, which is defined through the ratio of two characteristic many-body time scales, the Thouless time $t_{rm Th}$ and the Heisenberg time $t_{rm H}$, and hence resembles the logarithm of the dimensionless conductance introduced in the context of Anderson localization. We argue that the ergodicity breaking transition in interacting spin chains occurs when both time scales are of the same order, $t_{rm Th} approx t_{rm H}$, and $g$ becomes a system-size independent constant. Hence, the ergodicity breaking transition in many-body systems carries certain analogies with the Anderson localization transition. Intriguingly, using a Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless correlation length we observe a scaling solution of $g$ across the transition, which allows for detection of the crossing point in finite systems. We discuss the observation that scaled results in finite systems by increasing the system size exhibit a flow towards the quantum chaotic regime.
