Ground-state spaces of frustration-free Hamiltonians
Bibliographic record
Abstract
We study the ground-state space properties for frustration-free Hamiltonians. We introduce a concept of “reduced spaces” to characterize local structures of ground-state spaces. For a many-body system, we characterize mathematical structures for the set Θk of all the k-particle reduced spaces, which with a binary operation called join forms a semilattice that can be interpreted as an abstract convex structure. The smallest nonzero elements in Θk, called atoms, are analogs of extreme points. We study the properties of atoms in Θk and discuss its relationship with ground states of k-local frustration-free Hamiltonians. For spin-1/2 systems, we show that all the atoms in Θ2 are unique ground states of some 2-local frustration-free Hamiltonians. Moreover, we show that the elements in Θk may not be the join of atoms, indicating a richer structure for Θk beyond the convex structure. Our study of Θk deepens the understanding of ground-state space properties for frustration-free Hamiltonians, from the new perspective of reduced spaces.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
