Resource-adaptive quantum flow algorithms for quantum simulations of many-body systems: sub-flow embedding procedures

In this study, we utilized the quantum flow (QFlow) method to perform quantum simulations of correlated systems. The QFlow approach allows for sampling large sub-spaces of the Hilbert space by solving coupled variational problems in reduced dimensionality active spaces. Our research demonstrates that the circuits for evaluating the low dimensionality subproblems of the QFlow algorithms on quantum computers are significantly less complex than the parent (large subspace of the Hilbert space) problem, opening up possibilities for scalable and constant-circuit-depth quantum computing. Our simulations indicate that QFlow can be used to optimize a large number of wave function parameters without an increase in the required number of qubits. We were able to showcase that a variation of the QFlow procedure can optimize 1,100 wave function parameters using modest quantum resources. Furthermore, we investigated an adaptive approach known as the sub-flow approach, which involves a limited number of active spaces in the quantum flow process. Our findings shed light on the potential of QFlow in efficiently handling correlated systems via quantum simulations.

Exploring the exact limits of the real-time equation-of-motion coupled cluster cumulant Green's functions

In this paper, we analyze the properties of the recently proposed real-time equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (RT-EOM-CC) cumulant Green's function approach [J. Chem. Phys. 2020, 152, 174113]. We specifically focus on identifying the limitations of the original time-dependent coupled cluster (TDCC) ansatz and propose an enhanced double TDCC ansatz ensuring the exactness in the expansion limit. Additionally, we introduce a practical cluster-analysis-based approach for characterizing the peaks in the computed spectral function from the RT-EOM-CC cumulant Green's function approach, which is particularly useful for the assignments of satellite peaks when many-body effects dominate the spectra. Our preliminary numerical tests focus on reproducing, approximating, and characterizing the exact impurity Green's function of the three-site and four-site single impurity Anderson models using the RT-EOM-CC cumulant Green's function approach. The numerical tests allow us to have a direct comparison between the RT-EOM-CC cumulant Green's function approach and other Green's function approaches in the numerical exact limit.

Quantum Electrodynamics Coupled-Cluster Theory: Exploring Photon-Induced Electron Correlations

We present our successful implementation of the quantum electrodynamics coupled-cluster method with single and double excitations (QED-CCSD) for electronic and bosonic amplitudes, covering both individual and mixed excitation processes within the ExaChem program package, which relies on the Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods (TAMM) infrastructure. TAMM is a parallel heterogeneous tensor library designed for utilizing modern computing platforms, from laptops to leadership-class computing resources. This developed computational framework extends the traditional CCSD method to incorporate the intricate interplay between electronic and bosonic degrees of freedom, providing a comprehensive description of quantum phenomena. We discuss theoretical foundations, algorithmic details, and numerical benchmarks to demonstrate how the integration of bosonic degrees of freedom alters the electronic ground state. The interactions between electrons and photons within an optical cavity are modeled using the Pauli-Fierz Hamiltonian within the dipole approximation in the length gauge. The integration of QED effects within the CCSD framework contributes to a more accurate and versatile model for simulating complex quantum systems, thereby opening avenues for a better understanding, prediction, and manipulation of various physical phenomena.

Effective Many-body Interactions in Reduced-Dimensionality Spaces Through Neural Network Models

Accurately describing properties of challenging problems in physical sciences often requires complex mathematical models that are unmanageable to tackle head-on. Therefore, developing reduced dimensionality representations that encapsulate complex correlation effects in many-body systems is crucial to advance the understanding of these complicated problems. However, a numerical evaluation of these predictive models can still be associated with a significant computational overhead. To address this challenge, in this paper, we discuss a combined framework that integrates recent advances in the development of active-space representations of coupled cluster (CC) downfolded Hamiltonians with neural network approaches. The primary objective of this effort is to train neural networks to eliminate the computationally expensive steps required for evaluating hundreds or thousands of Hugenholtz diagrams, which correspond to multidimensional tensor contractions necessary for evaluating a many-body form of downfolded/effective Hamiltonians. Using small molecular systems (the H2O and HF molecules) as examples, we demonstrate that training neural networks employing effective Hamiltonians for a few nuclear geometries of molecules can accurately interpolate/ extrapolate their forms to other geometrical configurations characterized by different intensities of correlation effects. We also discuss differences between effective interactions that define CC downfolded Hamiltonians with those of bare Hamiltonians defined by Coulomb interactions in the active spaces.

Capturing many-body correlation effects with quantum and classical computing

Theoretical descriptions of excited states of molecular systems in high-energy regimes are crucial for supporting and driving many experimental efforts at light source facilities. However, capturing their complicated correlation effects requires formalisms that provide a hierarchical infrastructure of approximations. These approximations lead to an increased overhead in classical computing methods, and therefore, decisions regarding the ranking of approximations and the quality of results must be made on purely numerical grounds. The emergence of quantum computing methods has the potential to change this situation. In this study, we demonstrate the efficiency of Quantum Phase Estimator (QPE) in identifying core-level states relevant to x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. We compare and validate the QPE predictions with exact diagonalization and real-time equation-of-motion coupled cluster formulations, which are some of the most accurate methods for states dominated by collective correlation effects.

Picasso: Memory-Efficient Graph Coloring Using Palettes With Applications in Quantum Computing

A coloring of a graph is an assignment of colors to vertices such that no two neighboring vertices have the same color. The need for memory-efficient coloring algorithms is motivated by their application in computing clique partitions of graphs arising in quantum computations where the objective is to map a large set of Pauli strings into a compact set of unitaries. We present Picasso, a randomized memory-efficient iterative parallel graph coloring algorithm with theoretical sublinear space guarantees under practical assumptions. The parameters of our algorithm provide a trade-off between coloring quality and resource consumption. To assist the user, we also propose a machine learning model to predict the coloring algorithm's parameters considering these trade-offs. We provide a sequential and a parallel implementation of the proposed algorithm. We perform an experimental evaluation on a 64-core AMD CPU equipped with 512 GB of memory and an Nvidia A100 GPU with 40GB of memory. For a small dataset where existing coloring algorithms can be executed within the 512 GB memory budget, we show up to 68x memory savings. On massive datasets we demonstrate that GPU-accelerated Picasso can process inputs with 49.5x more Pauli strings (vertex set in our graph) and 2,478x more edges than state-of-the-art parallel approaches.

Integrating Subsystem Embedding Subalgebras and Coupled Cluster Green's Function: A Theoretical Foundation for Quantum Embedding in Excitation Manifold

In this study, we introduce a novel approach to coupled-cluster Green's function (CCGF) embedding by seamlessly integrating conventional CCGF theory with the state-of-the-art sub-system embedding sub-algebras coupled cluster (SES-CC) formalism. This integration focuses primarily on delineating the characteristics of the sub-system and the corresponding segments of the Green's function, defined explicitly by active orbitals. Crucially, our work involves the adaptation of the SES-CC paradigm, addressing the left eigenvalue problem through a distinct form of Hamiltonian similarity transformation. This advancement not only facilitates a comprehensive representation of the interaction between the embedded sub-system and its surrounding environment but also paves the way for the quantum mechanical description of multiple embedded domains, particularly by employing the emergent quantum flow algorithms. Our theoretical underpinnings further set the stage for a generalization to multiple embedded sub-systems. This expansion holds significant promise for the exploration and application of non-equilibrium quantum systems, enhancing the understanding of system-environment interactions. In doing so, the research underscores the potential of SES-CC embedding within the realm of quantum computations and multi-scale simulations, promising a good balance between accuracy and computational efficiency.

Quantum flow algorithms for simulating many-body systems on quantum computers

We conducted quantum simulations of strongly correlated systems using the quantum flow (QFlow) approach, which enables sampling large sub-spaces of the Hilbert space through coupled eigenvalue problems in reduced dimensionality active spaces. Our QFlow algorithms significantly reduce circuit complexity and pave the way for scalable and constant-circuit-depth quantum computing. Our simulations show that QFlow can optimize the collective number of wave function parameters without increasing the required qubits using active spaces having an order of magnitude fewer number of parameters.

TAMM: Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods

Tensor contraction operations in computational chemistry consume significant fractions of computing time on large-scale computing platforms. The widespread use of tensor contractions between large multi-dimensional tensors in describing electronic structure theory has motivated the development of multiple tensor algebra frameworks targeting heterogeneous computing platforms. In this paper, we present Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods (TAMM), a framework for productive and performance-portable development of scalable computational chemistry methods. The TAMM framework decouples the specification of the computation and the execution of these operations on available high-performance computing systems. With this design choice, the scientific application developers (domain scientists) can focus on the algorithmic requirements using the tensor algebra interface provided by TAMM whereas high-performance computing developers can focus on various optimizations on the underlying constructs such as efficient data distribution, optimized scheduling algorithms, efficient use of intra-node resources (e.g., GPUs). The modular structure of TAMM allows it to be extended to support different hardware architectures and incorporate new algorithmic advances. We describe the TAMM framework and our approach to sustainable development of tensor contraction-based methods in computational chemistry applications. We present case studies that highlight the ease of use as well as the performance and productivity gains compared to other implementations.

Impact of high-rank excitations on accuracy of the unitary coupled cluster downfolding formalism

In this paper, we evaluate the accuracy of the Hermitian form of the downfolding procedure utilizing the double unitary coupled cluster Ansatz (DUCC) on the H6 and H8 benchmark systems. The computational infrastructure employs the occupation-number-representation codes to construct the matrix representation of arbitrary second-quantized operators, enabling the exact representation of exponentials of various operators. The tests utilize external excitations estimated from standard single-reference coupled cluster methods (SR-CC) to demonstrate that higher-rank SR-CC external amplitudes were necessary to describe the energies in the strongly correlated regime adequately. We show that this approach can offset problems of the corresponding SR-CC theories associated with losing the variational character of corresponding energies.

High-throughput ab initio reaction mechanism exploration in the cloud with automated multi-reference validation

Quantum chemical calculations on atomistic systems have evolved into a standard approach to study molecular matter. These calculations often involve a significant amount of manual input and expertise although most of this effort could be automated, which would alleviate the need for expertise in software and hardware accessibility. Here, we present the AutoRXN workflow, an automated workflow for exploratory high-throughput lectronic structure calculations of molecular systems, in which (i) density functional theory methods are exploited to deliver minimum and transition-state structures and corresponding energies and properties, (ii) coupled cluster calculations are then launched for optimized structures to provide more accurate energy and property estimates, and (iii) multi-reference diagnostics are evaluated to back check the coupled cluster results and subject hem to automated multi-configurational calculations for potential multi-configurational cases. All calculations are carried out in a cloud environment and support massive computational campaigns. Key features of all omponents of the AutoRXN workflow are autonomy, stability, and minimum operator interference. We highlight the AutoRXN workflow at the example of an autonomous reaction mechanism exploration of the mode of action of a homogeneous catalyst for the asymmetric reduction of ketones.

Coupled cluster downfolding techniques: a review of existing applications in classical and quantum computing for chemical systems

In this manuscript, we provide an overview of the recent developments of the coupled cluster (CC) downfolding methods, where the ground-state problem of a quantum system is represented through effective/downfolded Hamiltonians defined using active spaces. All CC downfolding techniques discussed here are derived from a single-reference exponential ansatz for the ground-state problem. We discuss several extensions of the non-Hermitian and Hermitian downfolding approaches to the time domain and the so-called quantum flows. We emphasize the important role of downfolding formalisms in transitioning chemical applications from noisy quantum devices to scalable and error-corrected quantum computers.

Modeling singlet fission on a quantum computer

We present a use case of practical utility of quantum computing by employing a quantum computer in the investigation of the linear H$_4$ molecule as a simple model to comply with the requirements of singlet fission. We leverage a series of independent strategies to bring down the overall cost of the quantum computations, namely 1) tapering off qubits in order to reduce the size of the relevant Hilbert space; 2) measurement optimization via rotations to eigenbases shared by groups of qubit-wise commuting (QWC) Pauli strings; 3) parallel execution of multiple state preparation + measurement operations, implementing quantum circuits onto all 20 qubits available in the Quantinuum H1-1 quantum hardware. We report results that satisfy the energetic prerequisites of singlet fission and which are in excellent agreement with the exact transition energies (for the chosen one-particle basis), and much superior to classical methods deemed computationally tractable for singlet fission candidates

Real-time Equation-of-Motion Coupled-Cluster Cumulant Green's Function Method: Heterogeneous Parallel Implementation Based on the Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods Infrastructure

We report the implementation of the real-time equation-of-motion coupled-cluster (RT-EOM-CC) cumulant Green's function method [J. Chem. Phys. 152, 174113 (2020)] within the Tensor Algebra for Many-body Methods (TAMM) infrastructure. TAMM is a massively parallel heterogeneous tensor library designed for utilizing forthcoming exascale computing resources. The two-body electron repulsion matrix elements are Cholesky-decomposed, and we imposed spin-explicit forms of the various operators when evaluating the tensor contractions. Unlike our previous real algebra Tensor Contraction Engine (TCE) implementation, the TAMM implementation supports fully complex algebra. The RT-EOM-CC singles (S) and doubles (D) time-dependent amplitudes are propagated using a first-order Adams--Moulton method. This new implementation shows excellent scalability tested up to 500 GPUs using the Zn-porphyrin molecule with 655 basis functions, with parallel efficiencies above 90\% up to 400 GPUs. The TAMM RT-EOM-CCSD was used to study core photo-emission spectra in the formaldehyde and ethyl trifluoroacetate (ESCA) molecules. Simulations of the latter involve as many as 71 occupied and 649 virtual orbitals. The relative quasiparticle ionization energies and overall spectral functions agree well with available experimental results.

Quantum algorithms for generator coordinate methods

This paper discusses quantum algorithms for the generator coordinate method (GCM) that can be used to benchmark molecular systems. The GCM formalism defined by exponential operators with exponents defined through generators of the Fermionic U(N) Lie algebra (Thouless theorem) offers a possibility of probing large sub-spaces using low-depth quantum circuits. In the present studies, we illustrate the performance of the quantum algorithm for constructing a discretized form of the Hill-Wheeler equation for ground and excited state energies. We also generalize the standard GCM formulation to multi-product extension that when collective paths are properly probed, can systematically introduce higher rank effects and provide elementary mechanisms for symmetry purification when generator states break the spatial or spin symmetries. The GCM quantum algorithms also can be viewed as an alternative to existing variational quantum eigensolvers, where multi-step classical optimization algorithms are replaced by a single-step procedure for solving the Hill-Wheeler eigenvalue problem.

Sub-system self-consistency in coupled cluster theory

In this Communication, we provide numerical evidence indicating that the standard single-reference coupled-cluster (CC) energies can be calculated alternatively to its copybook definition. We demonstrate that the CC energies can be reconstructed by diagonalizing the effective Hamiltonians describing correlated sub-systems of the many-body system. In the extreme case, we provide numerical evidence that the CC energy can be reproduced through the diagonalization of the effective Hamiltonian describing sub-system composed of a single electron. These properties of CC formalism can be exploited to design protocols to define effective interactions in sub-systems used as a probe to calculate the energy of the entire system and introduce a new type of self-consistency for approximate CC approaches.

Triple excitations in Green's function coupled cluster solver for studies of strongly correlated systems in the framework of self-energy embedding theory

Embedding theories became important approaches used for accurate calculations of both molecules and solids. In these theories, a small chosen subset of orbitals is treated with an accurate method, called an impurity solver, capable of describing higher correlation effects. Ideally, such a chosen fragment should contain multiple orbitals responsible for the chemical and physical behavior of the compound. Handing a large number of chosen orbitals presents a very significant challenge for the current generation of solvers used in the physics and chemistry community. Here, we develop a Green's function coupled cluster singles doubles and triples (GFCCSDT) solver that can be used for a quantitative description in both molecules and solids. This solver allows us to treat orbital spaces that are inaccessible to other accurate solvers. At the same time, GFCCSDT maintains high accuracy of the resulting self-energy. Moreover, in conjunction with the GFCCSD solver, it allows us to test the systematic convergence of computational studies. Developing the CC family of solvers paves the road to fully systematic Green's function embedding calculations in solids. In this paper, we focus on the investigation of GFCCSDT self-energies for a strongly correlated problem of SrMnO$_3$ solid. Subsequently, we apply this solver to solid MnO showing that an approximate variant of GFCCSDT is capable of yielding a high accuracy orbital resolved spectral function.
