Transformer Wave Function for two dimensional frustrated magnets: emergence of a Spin-Liquid Phase in the Shastry-Sutherland Model

Luciano Loris Viteritti, Riccardo Rende, Alberto Parola +2

Understanding quantum magnetism in two-dimensional systems represents a lively branch in modern condensed-matter physics. In the presence of competing super-exchange couplings, mag…

Feature learning from non-Gaussian inputs: the case of Independent Component Analysis in high dimensions

Fabiola Ricci, Lorenzo Bardone, Sebastian Goldt

Deep neural networks learn structured features from complex, non-Gaussian inputs, but the mechanisms behind this process remain poorly understood. Our work is motivated by the obse…

A distributional simplicity bias in the learning dynamics of transformers

Riccardo Rende, Federica Gerace, Alessandro Laio +1

The remarkable capability of over-parameterised neural networks to generalise effectively has been explained by invoking a ``simplicity bias'': neural networks prevent overfitting…

Fine-tuning Neural Network Quantum States

Riccardo Rende, Sebastian Goldt, Federico Becca +1

Recent progress in the design and optimization of neural-network quantum states (NQSs) has made them an effective method to investigate ground-state properties of quantum many-body…

Learning from higher-order statistics, efficiently: hypothesis tests, random features, and neural networks

Eszter Székely, Lorenzo Bardone, Federica Gerace +1

Neural networks excel at discovering statistical patterns in high-dimensional data sets. In practice, higher-order cumulants, which quantify the non-Gaussian correlations between t…

A simple linear algebra identity to optimize Large-Scale Neural Network Quantum States

Riccardo Rende, Luciano Loris Viteritti, Lorenzo Bardone +2

Neural-network architectures have been increasingly used to represent quantum many-body wave functions. These networks require a large number of variational parameters and are chal…
