Noise robust neural network architecture

In which we propose neural network architecture (dune neural network) for recognizing general noisy image without adding any artificial noise in the training data. By representing each free parameter of the network as an uncertainty interval, and applying a linear transformation to each input element, we show that the resulting architecture achieves decent noise robustness when faced with input data with white noise. We apply simple dune neural networks for MNIST dataset and demonstrate that even for very noisy input images which are hard for human to recognize, our approach achieved better test set accuracy than human without dataset augmentation. We also find that our method is robust for many other examples with various background patterns added.

Parametrized path integral formulation for large fermion systems

The exchange antisymmetry between identical fermions gives rise to the well known fermion sign problem, in the form of large cancellation between positive and negative contribution to the partition function, making any simulation methods which directly sample this partition function exponentially difficult to converge. In this work, we employ path integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) and build upon the recently discovered fictitious particle model to investigate the fermion sign problem further. We consider the validity and invalidity condition for the method of parametrized path integral formulation of the partition function and extrapolation to circumvent the fermion sign problem. For the valid region of our method, our simulation shows that we may give accurate prediction of the energy for large fermion systems, which is much beyond the capability of the direct sampling in the traditional method. In particular, we find and verify a simple universal relation for high temperature noninteracting particles or strongly repulsive interacting particles at low temperatures.

Path integral molecular dynamics for anyons, bosons and fermions

In this article we develop a general method to numerically calculate physical properties for a system of anyons with path integral molecular dynamics. We provide a unified method to calculate the thermodynamics of identical bosons, fermions and anyons. Our method is tested and applied to systems of anyons, bosons and fermions in a two-dimensional harmonic trap. We also consider a method to calculate the energy for fermions as an application of the path integral molecular dynamics to simulate the anyon model.

Path integral molecular dynamics for thermodynamics and Green's function of ultracold spinor bosons

Most recently, the path integral molecular dynamics has been successfully used to consider the thermodynamics of single-component identical bosons and fermions. In this work, the path integral molecular dynamics is developed to simulate the thermodynamics, Green's function and momentum distribution of two-component bosons in three dimensions. As an example of our general method, we consider the thermodynamics of up to sixteen bosons in a three-dimensional harmonic trap. For noninteracting spinor bosons, our simulation shows a bump in the heat capacity. As the repulsive interaction strength increases, however, we find the gradual disappearance of the bump in the heat capacity. We believe this simulation result can be tested by ultracold spinor bosons with optical lattices and magnetic-field Feshbach resonance to tune the inter-particle interaction. We also calculate Green's function and momentum distribution of spinor bosons. Our work facilitates the exact numerical simulation of spinor bosons, whose property is one of the major problems in ultracold Bose gases.

Numerical calculation of Green's function and momentum distribution for spin-polarized fermions by path integral molecular dynamics

Most recently, path integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) has been successfully applied to perform simulations of identical bosons and fermions by B. Hirshberg et al.. In this work, we demonstrate that PIMD can be developed to calculate Green's function and extract momentum distribution for spin-polarized fermions. In particular, we show that the momentum distribution calculated by PIMD has potential application to numerous quantum systems, such as cold atom simulation of Mott insulator in Fermi-Hubbard model.

Path integral molecular dynamics simulations for Green's function in a system of identical bosons

Path integral molecular dynamics (PIMD) has been successfully applied to perform simulations of large bosonic systems in a recent work (Hirshberg et al., PNAS, 116, 21445 (2019)). In this work we extend PIMD techniques to study Green's function for bosonic systems. We demonstrate that the development of the original PIMD method enables us to calculate Green's function and extract momentum distribution from our simulations. We also apply our method to systems of identical interacting bosons to study Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless transition around its critical temperature.
