Graph lattice sums and graph zeta functions for long-range interacting quantum lattice models

Abstract

Taming the exponential increase of the Hilbert space dimension with system size in the simulation of gapped quantum lattice models is of the highest relevance for understanding and designing exotic quantum materials, where nonlocal interactions are of particular interest. High-order linked-cluster expansions provide access the solution of the eigenvalue problem for the infinite system, yet rely on the computation of high-dimensional oscillatory lattice sums with a graph structure, only approachable with Monte Carlo methods so far. This work resolves this issue, rendering all required graph lattice sums, referred to as graph zeta functions for kernels involving power-laws, computable. The resulting method reduces the evaluation time for state-of-the art series expansions from tenthousands of core-hours to minutes. After factorizing the lattice sum over blocks, each block is evaluated by the cheapest available strategy depending on its treewidth $\mathrm{tw}$. Basic blocks admit analytic forms in terms of generalized zeta functions. Series-parallel blocks with $\mathrm{tw}\le 2$ can be computed at linear cost in the number of graph nodes and in the size of the momentum grid using a semi-analytical algebra based on Epstein zeta functions and rapidly decaying Fourier series. Finally, for $\mathrm{tw}>2$, the method is combined with tensor-network bucket elimination yielding polynomial scaling of numerical work and memory in momentum grid size with exponents only growing with $\mathrm{tw}$ rather than with the number of vertices. Through use of FFT, the full momentum grid is recovered at the cost of a single momentum evaluation. We provide a detailed analysis of the precision and runtime of our method against analytic and numerical benchmarks. We further reproduce published Monte Carlo data for the transverse-field Ising model on different 1D, 2D, and 3D lattices, obtaining full agreement.

How many continuous measurements are needed to learn a vector?

One can recover vectors from $\mathbb{R}^m$ with arbitrary precision, using only $\lceil \log_2(m)\rceil +1$ continuous measurements that are chosen adaptively. This surprising result is explained and discussed, and we present applications to infinite-dimensional approximation problems.

IterativeCUR: Large Rank-Adaptive Approximation From a Small Recycled Sketch

The computation of accurate low-rank matrix approximations is central to improving the scalability of various techniques in machine learning, uncertainty quantification, and control. Traditionally, low-rank approximations are constructed using SVD-based approaches such as truncated SVD or Randomized SVD. Although these SVD approaches---especially Randomized SVD---have proven to be very computationally efficient, other low-rank approximation methods can offer even greater performance. One such approach is the CUR decomposition, which forms a low-rank approximation using direct row and column subsets of a matrix. Because CUR uses direct matrix subsets, it is also often better able to preserve native matrix structures like sparsity or non-negativity than SVD-based approaches and can facilitate data interpretation in many contexts. This paper introduces IterativeCUR, which draws on previous work in randomized numerical linear algebra to build a new algorithm that is highly competitive compared to prior work. IterativeCUR is adaptive in the sense that it takes as an input parameter the desired tolerance $ε$ and outputs (with arbitrarily high probability) an approximation of error bounded by $ε$, rather than requiring an a priori guess of the numerical rank. IterativeCUR typically runs significantly faster than both existing CUR algorithms and techniques such as Randomized SVD. Its asymptotic complexity is $\mathcal{O}(mn + (m+n)r^2)$ for an $m\times n$ matrix of output rank $r$. IterativeCUR relies on a single small sketch from the matrix that is successively downdated as the algorithm proceeds. We demonstrate through extensive experiments that IterativeCUR achieves up to $4\times$ speed-up over state-of-the-art pivoting-on-sketch approaches with no loss of accuracy, and up to $40\times$ speed-up over rank-adaptive randomized SVD approaches.

Multigrid with Linear Storage Complexity

As the discretization error for the solution of a partial differential equation (PDE) decreases, the precision required to store the corresponding coefficients naturally increases. Storing the solution's finite element coefficients explicitly requires $\mathcal O(n \log n)$ bits of storage, where $n$ is the number of degrees of freedom (DoFs). This paper presents a full multigrid method to compute the solution in a compressed format that reduces the storage complexity of the solution and intermediate vectors to $\mathcal O(n)$ bits. This reduction allows a matrix-free implementation to solve elliptic PDEs with an overall linear space complexity. For problems limited by the memory capacity of current supercomputers, we expect a memory footprint reduction of about an order of magnitude compared to state-of-the-art mixed-precision methods. We demonstrate the applicability of our algorithm by solving two model problems. Depending on the PDE and polynomial degree, but irrespective of the problem size, the solution vector on the finest grid requires between 4 and 12 bits per DoF, and the residual and correction require 3 to 6 bits each. Additional data is stored on the coarse grids with modestly increasing bit widths toward coarser grids.
