Disorder free many-body localization (MBL) can occur in interacting systems that can dynamically generate their own disorder. We address the thermal-MBL phase transition of two isotropic Heisenberg spin chains that are quasi-periodically coupled to each other. The spin chains are incommensurate and are coupled through a short range exchange interaction of the $XXZ$ type that decays exponentially with the distance. Using exact diagonalization, matrix product states and density matrix renormalization group, we calculate the time evolution of the entanglement entropy at long times and extract the inverse participation ratio in the thermodynamic limit. We show that this system has a robust MBL phase. We establish the phase diagram with the onset of MBL as a function of the interchain exchange coupling and of the incommensuration between the spin chains. The Ising limit of the interchain interaction optimizes the stability of the MBL phase over a broad range of incommensurations above a given critical exchange coupling. Incorporation of interchain spin flips significantly enhances entanglement between the spin chains and produces delocalization, favoring a pre-thermal phase whose entanglement entropy grows logarithmically with time.

Contemporary quantum devices are reaching new limits in size and complexity, allowing for the experimental exploration of emergent quantum modes. However, this increased complexity introduces significant challenges in device tuning and control. Here, we demonstrate autonomous tuning of emergent Majorana zero modes in a minimal realization of a Kitaev chain. We achieve this task using cross-platform transfer learning. First, we train a tuning model on a theory model. Next, we retrain it using a Kitaev chain realization in a two-dimensional electron gas. Finally, we apply this model to tune a Kitaev chain realized in quantum dots coupled through a semiconductor-superconductor section in a one-dimensional nanowire. Utilizing a convolutional neural network, we predict the tunneling and Cooper pair splitting rates from differential conductance measurements, employing these predictions to adjust the electrochemical potential to a Majorana sweet spot. The algorithm successfully converges to the immediate vicinity of a sweet spot (within 1.5 mV in 67.6% of attempts and within 4.5 mV in 80.9% of cases), typically finding a sweet spot in 45 minutes or less. This advancement is a stepping stone towards autonomous tuning of emergent modes in interacting systems, and towards foundational tuning machine learning models that can be deployed across a range of experimental platforms.

The Sherrington-Kirkpatrick (SK) model is a prototype of a complex non-convex energy landscape. Dynamical processes evolving on such landscapes and locally aiming to reach minima are generally poorly understood. Here, we study quenches, i.e. dynamics that locally aim to decrease energy. We analyse the energy at convergence for two distinct algorithmic classes, single-spin flip and synchronous dynamics, focusing on greedy and reluctant strategies. We provide precise numerical analysis of the finite size effects and conclude that, perhaps counter-intuitively, the reluctant algorithm is compatible with converging to the ground state energy density, while the greedy strategy is not. Inspired by the single-spin reluctant and greedy algorithms, we investigate two synchronous time algorithms, the sync-greedy and sync-reluctant algorithms. These synchronous processes can be analysed using dynamical mean field theory (DMFT), and a new backtracking version of DMFT. Notably, this is the first time the backtracking DMFT is applied to study dynamical convergence properties in fully connected disordered models. The analysis suggests that the sync-greedy algorithm can also achieve energies compatible with the ground state, and that it undergoes a dynamical phase transition.

For Ising models with complex energy landscapes, whether the ground state can be found by neural networks depends heavily on the Hamming distance between the training datasets and the ground state. Despite the fact that various recently proposed generative models have shown good performance in solving Ising models, there is no adequate discussion on how to quantify their generalization capabilities. Here we design a Hamming distance regularizer in the framework of a class of generative models, variational autoregressive networks (VAN), to quantify the generalization capabilities of various network architectures combined with VAN. The regularizer can control the size of the overlaps between the ground state and the training datasets generated by networks, which, together with the success rates of finding the ground state, form a quantitative metric to quantify their generalization capabilities. We conduct numerical experiments on several prototypical network architectures combined with VAN, including feed-forward neural networks, recurrent neural networks, and graph neural networks, to quantify their generalization capabilities when solving Ising models. Moreover, considering the fact that the quantification of the generalization capabilities of networks on small-scale problems can be used to predict their relative performance on large-scale problems, our method is of great significance for assisting in the Neural Architecture Search field of searching for the optimal network architectures when solving large-scale Ising models.
对于具有复杂能谱的伊辛模型,神经网络能否找到基态在很大程度上取决于训练数据集与基态之间的汉明距离。尽管最近提出的各种生成模型在求解伊辛模型时表现出了良好的性能,但如何量化它们的泛化能力还没有充分的讨论。在此,我们在一类生成模型--变异自回归网络(VAN)的框架内设计了一个汉明距离正则器,以量化与 VAN 结合的各种网络架构的泛化能力。正则化器可以控制地面状态与网络生成的训练数据集之间的重叠大小,这与找到地面状态的成功率一起构成了量化网络泛化能力的量化指标。我们对几种与 VAN 结合的原型网络架构(包括前馈神经网络、递归神经网络和图神经网络)进行了数值实验,以量化它们在求解伊辛模型时的泛化能力。此外,考虑到量化网络在小规模问题上的泛化能力可以用来预测它们在大规模问题上的相对性能,我们的方法对于帮助神经架构搜索领域在求解大规模 Ising 模型时寻找最优网络架构具有重要意义。

We investigate the non-Abelian Thouless pumping in a disorder tunable Lieb chain with degenerate flat bands. The results reveal that quasiperiodic disorder will cause a topological phase transition from the trivial (without non-Abelian Thouless pumping) to the non-trivial (with non-Abelian Thouless pumping) phase. The mechanism behind is that the monopole originally outside the topological region can be driven into the topological region due to the introduction of quasiperiodic disorder. Moreover, since the corresponding monopole will turn into a nodal line to spread beyond the boundaries of the topological region, the system with large disorder strength will result in the disappearance of non-Abelian Thouless pumping. Furthermore, we numerically simulate the Thouless pumping of non-Abelian systems, and the evolution results of center of mass' displacement are consistent with the Chern number. Finally, we discuss the localization properties of the system and find that, similar to [PRL 130, 206401(2023)], the inverse Anderson transition does not occur in the system with the increase of quasiperiodic strength, while the system still maintains the coexistence of localized and extended states.

Brain-like self-assembled networks can infer and analyze information out of unorganized noisy signals with minimal power consumption. These networks are characterized by spatiotemporal avalanches and their crackling behavior, and their physical models are expected to predict and understand their computational capabilities. Here, we use a network theory-based approach to provide a physical model for percolative tunnelling networks, found in Ag-hBN system, consisting of nodes (atomic clusters) of Ag intercalated in the hBN van der Waals layers. By modeling a single edge plasticity through constitutive electrochemical filament formation, and annihilation through Joule heating, we identify independent parameters that determine the network connectivity. We construct a phase diagram and show that a small region of the parameter space contains signals which are long-range temporally correlated, and only a subset of them contains crackling avalanche dynamics. Physical systems spontaneously selforganize to this region for possibly maximizing the efficiency of information transfer.

We performed high-frequency (0.4 to 1.7 MHz) measurements of the internal friction (IF) on 14 bulk metallic glasses (MGs). It is found that 12 of these MGs display relaxation IF peaks at temperatures T= 400-500 K, which are weakly affected by heat treatment within the amorphous state. The corresponding relaxation time is about 0.3 microseconds. This fast relaxation is reported for the first time in the literature. The apparent activation enthalpy for 4 MGs is determined.

Emerging experimental platforms use amorphousness, a constrained form of disorder, to tailor meta-material properties. We study localization under this type of disorder in a class of $2D$ models generalizing recent experiments on photonic systems. We explore two kinds of localization that emerge in these models: Anderson localization by disorder, and the existence of compact, macroscopically degenerate localized states as in many crystalline flat bands. We find localization properties to depend on the symmetry class within a family of amorphized kagom'{e} tight-binding models, set by a tunable synthetic magnetic field. The flat-band-like degeneracy innate to kagom'{e} lattices survives under amorphousness without on-site disorder. This phenomenon arises from the cooperation between the structure of the compact localized states and the geometry of the amorphous graph. For particular values of the field, such states emerge in the amorphous system that were not present on the kagom'{e} lattice in the same field. For generic states, the standard paradigm of Anderson localization is found to apply as expected for systems with particle-hole symmetry (class D), while a similar interpretation does not extend to our results in the general unitary case (class A). The structure of amorphous graphs, which arise in current photonics experiments, allows exact statements about flat-band-like states, including such states that only exist in amorphous systems, and demonstrates how the qualitative behavior of a disordered system can be tuned at fixed graph topology.

We study the critical behaviors of the ground and first excited states in the one-dimensional nonreciprocal Aubry-Andr{'e}-Harper model using both the self-normal and biorthogonal fidelity susceptibilities. We demonstrate that fidelity susceptibilities serve as a probe for the phase transition in the nonreciprocal AAH model. For ground states, characterized by real eigenenergies across the entire regime, both fidelity susceptibilities near the critical points scale as $N^{2}$, akin to the Hermitian AAH model. However, for the first-excited states, where $mathcal{PT}$ transitions occur, the fidelity susceptibilities exhibit distinct scaling laws, contingent upon whether the lattice consists of even or odd sites. For even lattices, the self-normal fidelity susceptibilities near the critical points continue to scale as $N^{2}$. For odd lattices, the biorthogonal fidelity susceptibilities diverge, while the self-normal fidelity susceptibilities exhibit linear behavior, indicating a novel scaling law.

For odd lattices, the biorthogonal fidelity susceptibilities diverge,\u0000while the self-normal fidelity susceptibilities exhibit linear behavior,\u0000indicating a novel scaling law.","PeriodicalId":501066,"journal":{"name":"arXiv - PHYS - Disordered Systems and Neural Networks","volume":"27 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140800514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
We investigate a quantum perceptron implemented on a quantum circuit using a repeat until method. We evaluate this from the perspective of capacity, one of the performance evaluation measures for perceptions. We assess a Gardner volume, defined as a volume of coefficients of the perceptron that can correctly classify given training examples using the replica method. The model is defined on the quantum circuit. Nevertheless, it is straightforward to assess the capacity using the replica method, which is a standard method in classical statistical mechanics. The reason why we can solve our model by the replica method is the repeat until method, in which we focus on the output of the measurements of the quantum circuit. We find that the capacity of a quantum perceptron is larger than that of a classical perceptron since the quantum one is simple but effectively falls into a highly nonlinear form of the activation function.
