A Global Spacetime Optimization Approach to the Real-Space Time-Dependent Schr\"odinger Equation

The time-dependent Schr\"odinger equation (TDSE) in real space is fundamental to understanding the dynamics of many-electron quantum systems, with applications ranging from quantum chemistry to condensed matter physics and materials science. However, solving the TDSE for complex fermionic systems remains a significant challenge, particularly due to the need to capture the time-evolving many-body correlations, while the antisymmetric nature of fermionic wavefunctions complicates the function space in which these solutions must be represented. We propose a general-purpose neural network framework for solving the real-space TDSE, Fermionic Antisymmetric Spatio-Temporal Network, which treats time as an explicit input alongside spatial coordinates, enabling a unified spatiotemporal representation of complex, antisymmetric wavefunctions for fermionic systems. This approach formulates the TDSE as a global optimization problem, avoiding step-by-step propagation and supporting highly parallelizable training. The method is demonstrated on five benchmark problems, achieving excellent agreement with reference solutions across all cases. These results demonstrate the method's accuracy and flexibility within the bound-state manifold across various dimensions and interaction regimes. While the current localized Ansatz inherently restricts the description of extensive ionization and continuum states, the method demonstrates the capability to stably simulate coherent multi-electron dynamics over extended time windows. Our framework offers a highly expressive alternative to traditional basis-dependent or mean-field methods, opening new possibilities for ab initio simulations of time-dependent quantum systems, with applications in quantum dynamics, molecular control, and ultrafast spectroscopy.

Retrievable Domain-Sensitive Feature Memory for Multi-Domain Recommendation

With the increase in the business scale and number of domains in online advertising, multi-domain ad recommendation has become a mainstream solution in the industry. The core of multi-domain recommendation is effectively modeling the commonalities and distinctions among domains. Existing works are dedicated to designing model architectures for implicit multi-domain modeling while overlooking an in-depth investigation from a more fundamental perspective of feature distributions. This paper focuses on features with significant differences across various domains in both distributions and effects on model predictions. We refer to these features as domain-sensitive features, which serve as carriers of domain distinctions and are crucial for multi-domain modeling. Experiments demonstrate that existing multi-domain modeling methods may neglect domain-sensitive features, indicating insufficient learning of domain distinctions. To avoid this neglect, we propose a domain-sensitive feature attribution method to identify features that best reflect domain distinctions from the feature set. Further, we design a memory architecture that extracts domain-specific information from domain-sensitive features for the model to retrieve and integrate, thereby enhancing the awareness of domain distinctions. Extensive offline and online experiments demonstrate the superiority of our method in capturing domain distinctions and improving multi-domain recommendation performance.

Confidence-Aware Multi-Field Model Calibration

Accurately predicting the probabilities of user feedback, such as clicks and conversions, is critical for advertisement ranking and bidding. However, there often exist unwanted mismatches between predicted probabilities and true likelihoods due to the rapid shift of data distributions and intrinsic model biases. Calibration aims to address this issue by post-processing model predictions, and field-aware calibration can adjust model output on different feature field values to satisfy fine-grained advertising demands. Unfortunately, the observed samples corresponding to certain field values can be seriously limited to make confident calibrations, which may yield bias amplification and online disturbance. In this paper, we propose a confidence-aware multi-field calibration method, which adaptively adjusts the calibration intensity based on confidence levels derived from sample statistics. It also utilizes multiple fields for joint model calibration according to their importance to mitigate the impact of data sparsity on a single field. Extensive offline and online experiments show the superiority of our method in boosting advertising performance and reducing prediction deviations.

Few-photon single ionization of cold rubidium in the over-the-barrier regime

Photoionization of the rubidium (Rb) atoms cooled in a magneto-optical trap, characterized by the coexistence of the ground 5$S_{1/2}$ and the excited 5$P_{3/2}$ states, is investigated experimentally and theoretically with the 400 nm femtosecond laser pulses at intensities of $I=3\times10^9$ W/cm$^2$ - $4.5\times10^{12}$ W/cm$^2$. Recoil-ion momentum distribution (RIMD) of Rb$^+$ exhibits rich ring-like structures and their energies correspond to one-photon ionization of the 5$P_{3/2}$ state, two-photon and three-photon ionizations of the 5$S_{1/2}$ state, respectively. With the increasing of $I$, we find that experimental signals near zero-momentum (NZM) in RIMDs resulted from the 5$P_{3/2}$ state enhance dramatically and its peaked Rb$^+$ momenta dwindle obviously while that from the 5$S_{1/2}$ state is maintained. Meanwhile, the ion-yield ratio of the 5$S_{1/2}$ over the 5$P_{3/2}$ states varies from $I$ to $I^{1.5}$ as $I$ increases. These features indicate a transition from perturbative ionization to strong-perturbative ionization for the 5$P_{3/2}$ state. Numerical simulations by solving the time-dependent Schrödinger equation (TDSE) can qualitatively explain the measurements of RIMD, photoion angular distributions, as well as ion-yield ratio. However, some discrepancies still exist, especially for the NZM dip, which could stem from the electron-electron correlation that is neglected in the present TDSE simulations since we have adopted the single-active-electron approximation.
