Geometric inflation of deviations challenges neural quantum states in dynamics of quantum Ising models

Neural quantum states (NQS) have emerged as a powerful framework for simulating non-equilibrium dynamics in strongly correlated quantum systems, offering scalable variational representations of highly entangled states. Yet, accurate NQS simulations have been found to be surprisingly challenging in some physical regimes of limited complexity. Here, we address paradigmatic quench dynamics of a one-dimensional quantum Ising model as a controlled benchmark. Through supervised state reconstruction we establish substantially tighter empirical upper bounds on the required parameter count than previous estimates, ruling out representational limitations as the key obstruction. Instead, we uncover a geometric inflation of small deviations as a hitherto overlooked challenge for accurate solutions of the infinitesimal time-dependent variational principle (TDVP): the dynamical rotation of the kernel of the quantum geometric tensor (QGT) can suddenly lend physical significance to previously irrelevant parameter deviations. The stability of matrix product state solutions of the same TDVP suggests that the non-linearity of the neural network ansatz is the origin of the sensitivity. These results identify QGT-null-space rotation as a geometric diagnostic of sensitive NQS dynamics and as a concrete target for improving TDVP algorithms

Exploring the Relaxation Landscape of a 2D Quantum Magnet on a 256-Qubit Processor

How quantum matter relaxes far from equilibrium is a central open problem in many-body physics, and one for which analog quantum simulators are well positioned to move from confirming theory to discovering new physics. Here, we use a two-dimensional Rydberg atom array of 256 qubits to map the relaxation landscape of the two-dimensional transverse-field Ising model across its phase diagram. Beyond the expected rapid thermalization, we identify two further regimes. The first is a prethermal regime whose dynamics are governed by an effective XY model. The second, and most unexpected, is a crossover regime characterized by a slowdown in relaxation. This slowdown occurs precisely where state-of-the-art classical tensor-network methods lose control at late times, whereas the quantum simulation remains consistent across system sizes. These results establish Rydberg atom arrays as a platform for scientific discovery in nonequilibrium quantum many-body dynamics.

Comment on "Beyond-classical computation in quantum simulation"

A recent article [Science 388, 199-204 (2025)] investigates the applicability of numerical methods and a quantum processor unit in simulating a quantum annealing protocol. One of the findings indicates that Neural Quantum States - a versatile variational ansatz for the many-body wave function based on artificial neural networks - fail to reach the same accuracy as the quantum processor. In this comment we revisit these concerns, demonstrating that NQS can provide competitive results in some of the cases when accounting for the Monte-Carlo noise and large autocorrelation times between samples obtained from the final state.

Time-dependent variational Monte Carlo without bias

When combined with highly expressive ansatz functions such as neural quantum states, variational Monte Carlo (VMC) constitutes a versatile numerical approach to tackle the quantum many-body problem in and out of equilibrium. However, its traditional formulation exhibits a subtle estimation bias leading to inaccuracies, which can be particularly detrimental when addressing real time dynamics. In this work, we investigate two avenues to circumvent said estimation bias. First, we propose an unbiased variant of time-dependent VMC using self-normalized importance sampling with respect to a cutoff-based deformation of the Born distribution. We demonstrate the feasibility and accuracy of the approach in pathological and generic cases of quench dynamics. Furthermore, we explore an alternative sampling strategy based on active learning via the tensor cross interpolation (TCI). While we find that our choice of tensor network architecture lacks the required low rank property, the proposed TCI-based algorithm complements the conventional importance sampling paradigm, providing an alternative perspective that may be further explored in future work.

Simulating dynamics of the two-dimensional transverse-field Ising model: a comparative study of large-scale classical numerics

The quantum dynamics of many-qubit systems is an outstanding problem that has recently driven significant advances in both numerical methods and programmable quantum processing units. In this work, we employ a comprehensive toolbox of state-of-the-art numerical approaches to classically simulate the dynamics of the two-dimensional transverse field Ising model. Our methods include three different tensor network techniques -- matrix product states, tree-tensor networks, and two-dimensional tensor-networks under the belief propagation approximation -- as well as time-dependent variational Monte Carlo with Neural Quantum States. We focus on two paradigmatic dynamical protocols: (i) quantum annealing through a critical point and (ii) post-quench dynamics. Our extensive results show the quantitative predictions of various state-of-the-art numerical methods providing a benchmark for future numerical investigations and experimental studies with the aim to push the limitations on classical and QPUs. In particular, our work connects classical simulability to different regimes associated with quantum dynamics in Rydberg arrays - namely, quasi-adiabatic dynamics, the Kibble-Zurek mechanism, and quantum quenches.

Roughening dynamics of interfaces in the two-dimensional quantum Ising model

The properties of interfaces are key to understand the physics of matter. However, the study of quantum interface dynamics has remained an outstanding challenge. Here, we use large-scale Tree Tensor Network simulations to identify the dynamical signature of an interface roughening transition within the ferromagnetic phase of the 2D quantum Ising model. For initial domain wall profiles we find extended prethermal plateaus for smooth interfaces, whereas above the roughening transition the domain wall decays quickly. Our results can be readily explored experimentally in Rydberg atomic systems.

Time evolution of the quantum Ising model in two dimensions using Tree Tensor Networks

The numerical simulation of two-dimensional quantum many-body systems away from equilibrium constitutes a major challenge for all known computational methods. We investigate the utility of Tree Tensor Network (TTN) states to solve the dynamics of the quantum Ising model in two dimensions. Within the perturbative regime of small transverse fields, TTNs faithfully reproduce analytically known, but non-trivial and physically interesting results, for lattices up to $16 \times 16$ sites. Limitations of the method related to the rapid growth of entanglement entropy are explored within more general, paradigmatic quench settings. We provide and discuss comprehensive benchmarks regarding the benefit of \emph{GPU} acceleration and the impact of using local operator sums on the performance.

Disentangling Interacting Systems with Fermionic Gaussian Circuits: Application to Quantum Impurity Models

Tensor network quantum states are powerful tools for strongly correlated systems, tailored to capture local correlations such as in ground states with entanglement area laws. When applying tensor network states to interacting fermionic systems, a proper choice of the basis or orbitals can reduce the bond dimension of tensors and provide physically relevant orbitals. We introduce such a change of basis with unitary gates obtained from compressing fermionic Gaussian states into quantum circuits corresponding to various tensor networks. These circuits can reduce the ground state entanglement entropy and improve the performance of algorithms such as the density matrix renormalization group. We study the Anderson impurity model with one and two impurities to show the potential of the method for improving computational efficiency and interpreting impurity physics. Furthermore, fermionic Gaussian circuits can also suppress entanglement during the time evolution out of low-energy state. Last, we consider Gaussian multi-scale entanglement renormalization ansatz (GMERA) circuits which compress fermionic Gaussian states hierarchically. The emergent coarse-grained physical models from these GMERA circuits are studied in terms of their entanglement properties and suitability for performing time evolution.
