Distributed and communication-efficient solutions to linear equations with special sparse structure

In this paper we report two distributed and communication-efficient algorithms based on the multi-agent system are proposed to solve a system of linear equations with the Laplacian sparse system matrix. One algorithm is based on the gradient descent method in optimization. In this algorithm, the agents only share partial information instead of all of their collective state vectors to save significant communication. The other algorithm is obtained by approximating Newton’s method for a faster convergence rate. Although it requires twice as much communication as the first one, it is still communication-efficient given the low dimension of the information shared among agents. The convergence at a linear rate is proved for both algorithms, and a comprehensive comparison of their convergence rate, communication burden, and computation costs is also performed. The proposed algorithms can be applied to various systems to solve those problems that can be modeled as a system of linear equations with a Laplacian sparse system matrix. Simulation results with the electric power system illustrate their effectiveness.

Sensitivity of back‐projection algorithm (BPA) synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image formation to initial position, velocity, and attitude navigation errors

Abstract The Back‐Projection Algorithm (BPA) is a time‐domain‐matched filtering technique to form synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images. To produce high‐quality BPA images, precise navigation data for the radar platform must be known. Errors in position, velocity, or attitude result in improperly formed images that are corrupted by shifting and blurring. The contribution of this paper is the development of analytical expressions that characterise the relationship between navigation errors and image formation errors from an inertial navigation point of view, where trajectory estimation errors in position, velocity, and attitude propagate through time and cause compounding errors in the vehicle state vector. These analytical expressions are verified via simulated image formation and real‐data image formation.

A new scheme for perturbative triples correction to (0,1) sector of Fock space multi-reference coupled cluster method: Theory, implementation, and examples

We propose a new elegant strategy to implement third order triples correction in the light of many-body perturbation theory to the Fock space multi-reference coupled cluster method for the ionization problem. The computational scaling as well as the storage requirement is of key concerns in any many-body calculations. Our proposed approach scales as N{sup 6} does not require the storage of triples amplitudes and gives superior agreement over all the previous attempts made. This approach is capable of calculating multiple roots in a single calculation in contrast to the inclusion of perturbative triples in the equation of motion variant of the coupled cluster theory, where each root needs to be computed in a state-specific way and requires both the left and right state vectors together. The performance of the newly implemented scheme is tested by applying to methylene, boron nitride (B{sub 2}N) anion, nitrogen, water, carbon monoxide, acetylene, formaldehyde, and thymine monomer, a DNA base.

Simulating dirty bosons on a quantum computer

Abstract Quantum computers hold the potential to unlock new discoveries in complex quantum systems by enabling the simulation of physical systems that have heretofore been impossible to implement on classical computers due to intractability. A system of particular interest is that of dirty bosons, whose physics highlights the intriguing interplay of disorder and interactions in quantum systems, playing a central role in describing, for instance, ultracold gases in a random potential, doped quantum magnets, and amorphous superconductors. Here, we demonstrate how quantum computers can be used to elucidate the physics of dirty bosons in one and two dimensions. Specifically, we explore the disorder-induced delocalized-to-localized transition using adiabatic state preparation. In one dimension, the quantum circuits can be compressed to small enough depths for execution on currently available quantum computers. In two dimensions, the compression scheme is no longer applicable, thereby requiring the use of large-scale classical state vector simulations to emulate quantum computer performance. In addition, simulating interacting bosons via emulation of a noisy quantum computer allowed us to study the effect of quantum hardware noise on the physical properties of the simulated system. Our results suggest that scaling laws control how noise modifies observables versus its strength, the circuit depth, and the number of qubits. Moreover, we observe that noise impacts the delocalized and localized phases differently. A better understanding of how noise alters the observed properties of the simulated system is essential for leveraging near-term quantum devices for simulation of dirty bosons, and indeed for condensed matter systems in general.

Variational approaches to constructing the many-body nuclear ground state for quantum computing

Here, we explore the preparation of specific nuclear states on gate-based quantum hardware using variational algorithms. Large-scale classical diagonalizations of the nuclear shell model have reached sizes of 10 9 –10 10 basis states but are still severely limited by computational resources. Quantum computing can, in principle, solve such systems exactly with exponentially fewer resources than classical computing. Exact solutions for large systems require many qubits and large gate depth, but variational approaches can effectively limit the required gate depth. We use the unitary coupled cluster approach to construct approximations of the ground-state vectors, later to be used in dynamics calculations. The testing ground is the phenomenological shell model space, which allows us to mimic the complexity of the internucleon interactions. We find that often one needs to minimize over a large number of parameters, using a large number of entanglements that makes the application on existing hardware challenging. Prospects for rapid improvements with more capable hardware are, however, very encouraging.

Nonperturbative solution of scalar Yukawa model in two- and three-body Fock space truncations

The light-front Tamm-Dancoff method of finding the nonperturbative solutions in field theory is based on the Fock decomposition of the state vector, complemented by the sector-dependent nonperturbative renormalization scheme. We show in detail how to implement the renormalization procedure and to solve the simplest nontrivial example of the scalar Yukawa model in the two- and three-body Fock space truncations incorporating scalar “nucleon” and one or two scalar “pions”.

Fault isolation and fault-tolerant control for Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy time-varying delay stochastic distribution systems

A fault isolation, estimation, and fault-tolerant control (FTC) scheme for nonlinear time-varying delay stochastic distribution control systems was presented in this paper. The Takagi-Sugeno fuzzy model was adopted to approach the nonlinear dynamics of time-varying delay systems. According to the output equivalence principle and Laplace transformation, an augmented state vector was given to solve the time-varying delay problem. When multiple actuator faults and interference occur simultaneously, fault detection, isolation and fault estimation was designed to obtained the fault information. To decouple faults and obtain the value and location information of the fault, the system was separated into two parts through the designed multiple conversion matrices, in which one subsystem was only affected by one actuator fault. This has simplified the design of fault isolation and estimation. A adaptive observer for fault estimation was given. Then, fault information such as the time, location, and size was determined. The observer gain matrices were calculated using linear matrix inequality (LMI). When a fault was detected and diagnosed, a FTC algorithm was devised using the proportional-integral control scheme to compensate the fault as much as possible. It has been shown that even if multiple faults actuator occurred simultaneously, the FTC controller still ensured the output probability density function of the system traced the desired probability density function when a fault occurred. Finally, the expected results were obtained through the simulation example, which confirmed the effectiveness of the method.

Chiral symmetry breaking, entanglement, and the nucleon spin decomposition

The nucleon is naturally viewed as a bipartite system of valence spin — defined by its non-vanishing chiral charge — and non-valence or sea spin. The sea spin can be traced over to give a reduced density matrix, and it is shown that the resulting entanglement entropy acts as an order parameter of chiral symmetry breaking in the nucleon. In the large-[Formula: see text] limit, the entanglement entropy vanishes and the valence spin accounts for all of the nucleon spin, while in the limit of maximal entanglement entropy, the nucleon loses memory of the valence spin and consequently has spin dominated by the sea. The nucleon state vector in the chiral basis, fit to low-energy data, gives a valence spin content consistent with experiment and lattice QCD determinations, and has large entanglement entropy.

QuanSimBench

QuanSimBench is a software program that performs a gate-by-gate simulation of a quantum computer with a full state vector formulation. It simulates a simplified version of Shor's algorithm with increasing number of qubits until resources are exhausted. The score (states/s) is how fast the Approximate Quantum Fourier Transform can be computed (the modular exponentiation is not timed). The goal is to quantify the ability of a computer to simulate ideal quantum circuits.

NWQ-sim

NWQSim is a quantum circuit simulation environment developed at PNNL. It currently includes two major components: a state-vector simulator (SV-Sim) and a density matrix simulator (DM-Sim) and we may add more components, such as a Clifford simulator, in the future effort. NWQSim has two language interface: C/C++ and Python. It supports Q#/QDK frontend through QIR and QIR-runtime. It supports Qiskit and Cirq frontends through OpenQASM. NWQSim runs on several backends: Intel-CPU, Intel-Xeon-Phi, AMD-CPU, AMD-GPU, NVIDIA-GPU, and IBM-CPU. It supports three modes: (1) single processor, such as a single CPU (with and without AVX2 and AVX512 acceleration), a single NVIDIA GPU or a single AMD GPU; (2) single-node-multi-processors, such as multi-CPUs/Xeon-Phis, multi-NVIDA/AMD GPUs; (3) multi-nodes, such as a CPU cluster, a Xeon-Phi cluster (e.g., ANL Theta, NERSC Cori), an NVIDIA cluster (e.g., ORNL Summit, NERSC Perlmutter).

Quantum Optimal Control Using High Performance Computing

This feasibility study developed numerical methods for the optimal control problem for realizing logical gates in closed quantum systems, where the evolution of the state vector is governed by the time dependent Schrodinger equation. The number of parameters in the control functions is made independent of the number of time steps by expanding them in terms of B-spline basis functions, with and without carrier waves. We use an interior point gradient-based technique from the IPOPT package to minimize the gate infidelity subject to amplitude constraints on the control functions. The symplectic Stromer-Verlet scheme is used to integrate a real-valued formulation of Schrodinger's equation in time and the gradient of the gate infidelity is obtained by solving the corresponding adjoint equation. This allows all components of the gradient to be calculated at the cost of solving three Schrodinger systems, independently of the number of parameters in the control functions. The correctness of the method is verified and applied to Hamiltonians that model the dynamics of coupled super-conducting qubits.

Predictive Complexity of Quantum Subsystems

We define predictive states and predictive complexity for quantum systems composed of distinct subsystems. This complexity is a generalization of entanglement entropy. It is inspired by the statistical or forecasting complexity of predictive state analysis of stochastic and complex systems theory but is intrinsically quantum. Predictive states of a subsystem are formed by equivalence classes of state vectors in the exterior Hilbert space that effectively predict the same future behavior of that subsystem for some time. As an illustrative example, we present calculations in the dynamics of an isotropic Heisenberg model spin chain and show that, in comparison to the entanglement entropy, the predictive complexity better signifies dynamically important events, such as magnon collisions. It can also serve as a local order parameter that can distinguish long and short range entanglement.

The Orbits of Jupiter’s Irregular Satellites

We report on the improved ephemerides for the irregular Jovian satellites. We used a combination of numerically integrated equations of motion and a weighted least-squares algorithm to fit the astrometric measurements. The orbital fits for 59 satellites are summarized in terms of state vectors, post-fit residuals, and mean orbital elements. The current data set appears to be sensitive to the mass of Himalia, which is constrained to the range of GM = 0.13–0.28 km{sup 3} s{sup −2}. Here, GM is the product of the Newtonian constant of gravitation, G and the body's mass, M . Our analysis of the orbital uncertainties indicates that 11 out of 59 satellites are lost owing to short data arcs. The lost satellites hold provisional International Astronomical Union (IAU) designations and will likely need to be rediscovered.
