Exploring exotic configurations with anomalous features using deep learning: Application of classical and quantum-classical hybrid anomaly detection

In this article we present the application of classical and quantum-classical hybrid anomaly detection schemes to explore exotic configuration with anomalous features. We consider the Anderson model as a prototype where we define two types of anomalies - a high conductance in presence of strong impurity and low conductance in presence of weak impurity - as a function of random impurity distribution. Such anomalous outcome constitutes an imperceptible fraction of the data set and is not a part of the training process. These exotic configurations, which can be a source of rich new physics, usually remain elusive to conventional classification or regression methods and can be tracked only with a suitable anomaly detection scheme. We also present a systematic study of the performance of the classical and the quantum-classical hybrid anomaly detection method and show that the inclusion of a quantum circuit significantly enhances the performance of anomaly detection which we quantify with suitable performance metrics. Our approach is quite generic in nature and can be used for any system that relies on a large number of parameters to find their new configurations which can hold exotic new features.

Energy risk analysis with Dynamic Amplitude Estimation and Piecewise Approximate Quantum Compiling

We generalize the Approximate Quantum Compiling algorithm into a new method for CNOT-depth reduction, which is apt to process wide target quantum circuits. Combining this method with state-of-the-art techniques for error mitigation and circuit compiling, we present a 10-qubit experimental demonstration of Iterative Amplitude Estimation on a quantum computer. The target application is the derivation of the Expected Value of contract portfolios in the energy industry. In parallel, we also introduce a new variant of the Quantum Amplitude Estimation algorithm which we call Dynamic Amplitude Estimation, as it is based on the dynamic circuit capability of quantum devices. The algorithm achieves a reduction in the circuit width in the order of the binary precision compared to the typical implementation of Quantum Amplitude Estimation, while simultaneously decreasing the number of quantum-classical iterations (again in the order of the binary precision) compared to the Iterative Amplitude Estimation. The calculation of the Expected Value, VaR and CVaR of contract portfolios on quantum hardware provides a proof of principle of the new algorithm.

Geometrical picture of the electron-electron correlation at the large-D limit

In electronic structure calculations, the correlation energy is defined as the difference between the mean field and the exact solution of the non relativistic Schrödinger equation. Such an error in the different calculations is not directly observable as there is no simple quantum mechanical operator, apart from correlation functions, that correspond to such quantity. Here, we use the dimensional scaling approach, in which the electrons are localized at the large-dimensional scaled space, to describe a geometric picture of the electronic correlation. Both, the mean field, and the exact solutions at the large-D limit have distinct geometries. Thus, the difference might be used to describe the correlation effect. Moreover, correlations can be also described and quantified by the entanglement between the electrons, which is a strong correlation without a classical analog. Entanglement is directly observable and it is one of the most striking properties of quantum mechanics and bounded by the area law for local gapped Hamiltonians of interacting many-body systems. This study opens up the possibility of presenting a geometrical picture of the electron-electron correlations and might give a bound on the correlation energy. The results at the large-D limit and at D=3 indicate the feasibility of using the geometrical picture to get a bound on the electron-electron correlations.

Hybrid Classical-Quantum Autoencoder for Anomaly Detection

We propose a Hybrid classical-quantum Autoencoder (HAE) model, which is a synergy of a classical autoencoder (AE) and a parametrized quantum circuit (PQC) that is inserted into its bottleneck. The PQC augments the latent space, on which a standard outlier detection method is applied to search for anomalous data points within a classical dataset. Using this model and applying it to both standard benchmarking datasets, and a specific use-case dataset which relates to predictive maintenance of gas power plants, we show that the addition of the PQC leads to a performance enhancement in terms of precision, recall, and F1 score. Furthermore, we probe different PQC Ansätze and analyse which PQC features make them effective for this task.

Black hole in Nielsen-Olesen vortex

In this article, we calculate the classical vortex solution of a spontaneously broken gauge theory interacting with gravity in (2+1)-dimension. We also calculate the conditions for the formation of a (2+1)-dimensional black hole due to magnetic vortex (a Nielsen-Olesen vortex). The semiclassical Hawking temperature for this black hole is calculated, where we see that the temperature of a BTZ black hole increases or decreases without changing the size of the horizon if we insert the magnetic vortex fields in the black hole. Finally, the first law of black hole thermodynamics is described for this particular solution, which shows that the additional work terms from the scalar and gauge fields compensate the change in the temperature relative to its usual value for the BTZ solution.

Dimensional Interpolation for Random Walk

We employ a simple and accurate dimensional interpolation formula for the shapes of random walks at $D=3$ and $D=2$ based on the analytically known solutions at both limits $D=\infty$ and $D=1$. The results obtained for the radii of gyration of an arbitrary shaped object are about $2\%$ error compared with accurate numerical results at $D = 3$ and $D = 2$. We also calculated the asphericity for a three-dimensional random walk using the dimensional interpolation formula. Result agrees very well with the numerically simulated result. The method is general and can be used to estimate other properties of random walks.

Dimensional interpolation for metallic hydrogen

We employ a simple and mostly accurate dimensional interpolation formula using dimensional limits $D=1$ and $D=\infty$ to obtain $D=3$ ground-state energy of metallic hydrogen. We also present results describing the phase transitions for different symmetries of three-dimensional structure lattices. The interpolation formula not only predicts fairly accurate energies but also predicts a correct functional form of the energy as a function of the lattice parameters. That allows us to calculate different physical quantities such as the bulk modulus, Debye temperature, and critical transition temperature, from the gradient and the curvature of the energy curve as a function of the lattice parameters. These theoretical calculations suggest that metallic hydrogen is a likely candidate for high temperature superconductivity. The dimensional interpolation formula is robust and might be useful to obtain the energies of complex many-body systems.

Unorthodox dimensional interpolations for He, Li, Be atoms and hydrogen molecule

We present a simple interpolation formula using dimensional limits $D=1$ and $D=\infty$ to obtain the $D=3$ ground-state energies of atoms and molecules. For atoms, these limits are linked by first-order perturbation terms of electron-electron interactions. This unorthodox approach is illustrated by ground-states for two, three, and four electron atoms, with modest effort to obtain fairly accurate results. Also, we treat the ground-state of H$_2$ over a wide range of the internuclear distance R, and compares well with the standard exact results from the Full Configuration Interaction method. Similar dimensional interpolations may be useful for complex many-body systems.
