Abstract

We consider the mutual distribution of two linearly independent solutions y_1(x) and y_2(x) of the 1D Schroedinger equation with a random potential. Since individual distributions of $y_1$ and $y_2$ are log-normal, it is naturally to suggest that their mutual distribution is also log-normal. Such hypothesis is confirmed in the deep of the allowed and forbidden bands, but failed near the initial band edge. The mechanism of deviations from the log-normal form is elucidated, and the first correction to it is calculated. The latter allows to demonstrate broadening of the spectral lines in the universal conductance fluctuations. A lot of new information is obtained on the phase transition in the distribution P(ψ), where ψis a combined phase entering the evolution equations. According to the previous publications, this transition is related with appearance of the imaginary part of ψat a certain energy E_0, and is not accompanied by singularities in the system resistance. The real sense of this transition consists in the change of configuration of four Lyapunov exponents, which determine the general solution: there are two pairs of complex-conjugated exponents for E>E_0, while for E<E_0 all exponents become real. Realization of two different configurations is confirmed for energies in the deep of the allowed and forbidden bands; it proves the existence of the singular point E_0 at the formal level. The phase transition can be observed in optical systems, tracing the sign of the field in a wave, when the coordinate is changed.

The critical slowing down in training diffusion models

Computational sampling has been central to the sciences since the mid-20th century. While machine-learning-based approaches have recently enabled major advances, their behavior remains poorly understood, with limited theoretical control over when and why they succeed. Here we provide such insight for diffusion models---a class of generative schemes highly effective in practice---by analyzing their application to the $O(n)$ model of statistical field theory in the Gaussian limit $n \to \infty$. In this analytically tractable setting, we show that training a score model with a one-layer network architecture matching the exact solution exhibits a form of critical slowing down in parameter learning. This slowing down also impacts the generation process, indicating that the well-known difficulties of sampling near criticality persist even for learned generative models. To overcome this bottleneck, we consider the power of architectural depth. We find that using a two-layer architecture drastically reduces the critical slowing down, with the training time scaling logarithmically rather than quadratically with system size. Using a Fourier implementation of the architecture, we further show that this acceleration in training time can be achieved without drastically increasing operational complexity. Taken together, these results demonstrate that diffusion models can overcome the critical slowing down through appropriate architectural design, and establish a controlled framework for understanding and improving learned sampling methods in statistical physics and beyond.

Switching diffusivity selects Pareto tail exponent in random growth with redistribution

Random multiplicative growth with redistribution generates stationary Pareto wealth tails in the Bouchaud-Mézard model, but assumes a fixed multiplicative noise intensity. This is restrictive for physical and financial growth processes, where volatility (diffusivity) is often fluctuating. We replace the constant noise intensity by a switching diffusivity and ask how these fluctuations select the Pareto stationary tail. For a geometric Brownian motion with switching diffusivity, the long-time Gaussian limit holds when the redraw law has finite mean and variance. The asymptotic variance retains a contribution from diffusivity persistence. With redistribution and a general redraw law, the stationary large-wealth problem is characterized by a spectral condition for admissible algebraic modes. For a two-state diffusivity, an exact tail analysis gives a Pareto exponent interpolating between the high-diffusivity slow-refresh limit and the mean-diffusivity fast-refresh Bouchaud-Mézard limit.

Extreme-Scale Ising Machines with Cluster Mean-Field Theory

Scaling analog and digital Ising machines to larger problems requires overcoming finite device capacity and the cost of communication between devices. We present cluster mean-field theory (CMFT), a framework that partitions a large interaction graph into clusters sized to fit available hardware. Each cluster performs local updates independently, while interactions across cluster boundaries enter through periodically updated effective biases computed from boundary-spin averages. To reduce the error introduced by fixed cluster boundaries, we introduce dynamic partitioning, which cycles through multiple partitions so that interactions approximated by mean fields at one stage can act through instantaneous spins at another. On three-dimensional spin glasses and planted Pegasus instances, dynamic CMFT exhibits power-law decay of residual energy over sweep budgets. This shows that solution quality continues to improve with computational effort despite the mean-field approximation. An automated graph partitioner combined with a weighted recovery ratio provides a practical heuristic for selecting partition combinations on graphs without natural cut directions. We demonstrate CMFT on four GPUs with approximately four million p-bits, reaching comparable energy densities up to 15 times faster than a single-GPU implementation of the full graph. By coupling locally evolving clusters through programmable effective biases, CMFT provides a route to extreme-scale Ising machines on both analog and digital hardware.
