Sampling two-dimensional isometric tensor network states

Abstract

Sampling a quantum system's underlying probability distributions is an important computational task, e.g., for quantum advantage experiments and quantum Monte Carlo algorithms. Tensor networks are an invaluable tool for efficiently representing states of large quantum systems with limited entanglement. Algorithms for sampling one-dimensional (1D) tensor networks are well-established and utilized in several 1D tensor network methods. In this paper we introduce two novel sampling algorithms for two-dimensional (2D) isometric tensor network states (isoTNS) that generalize existing 1D tensor networks sampling algorithms. Our first proposed algorithm performs independent sampling and yields a single configuration together with its associated probability. The second algorithm employs a greedy search strategy to identify $K$ high-probability configurations and their corresponding probabilities. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of these algorithms across quantum states with varying entanglement and system size.
