Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

We introduce the Sequency Hierarchy Truncation (SeqHT) scheme for reducing the resources required for state preparation and time evolution in quantum simulations, based upon a truncation in sequency. For the <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><mml:mi>&amp;#x03BB;</mml:mi><mml:msup><mml:mi>&amp;#x03D5;</mml:mi><mml:mn>4</mml:mn></mml:msup></mml:math> interaction in scalar field theory, or any interaction with a polynomial expansion, upper bounds on the contributions of operators of a given sequency are derived. For the systems we have examined, observables computed in sequency-truncated wavefunctions, including quantum correlations as measured by magic, are found to step-wise converge to their exact values with increasing cutoff sequency. The utility of SeqHT is demonstrated in the adiabatic state preparation of the <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><mml:mi>&amp;#x03BB;</mml:mi><mml:msup><mml:mi>&amp;#x03D5;</mml:mi><mml:mn>4</mml:mn></mml:msup></mml:math> anharmonic oscillator ground state using IBM's quantum computer <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><mml:mrow class="MJX-TeXAtom-ORD"><mml:mtext mathvariant="monospace">ibm_sherbrooke</mml:mtext></mml:mrow></mml:math>. Using SeqHT, the depth of the required quantum circuits is reduced by <mml:math xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><mml:mo>&amp;#x223C;</mml:mo><mml:mn>30</mml:mn><mml:mi mathvariant="normal">&amp;#x0025;</mml:mi></mml:math>, leading to significantly improved determinations of observables in the quantum simulations. More generally, SeqHT is expected to lead to a reduction in required resources for quantum simulations of systems with a hierarchy of length scales.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not 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.
