Résumé :

Due to their immense representative power, neural network quantum states (NQS) have gained significant interest in current research. In recent advances in the field of NQS, it has been demonstrated that this approach can compete with state-of-the-art numerical techniques, making NQS a compelling alternative, in particular for the simulation of large, two-dimensional (2D) quantum systems. In this study, we show that recurrent neural network (RNN) wave functions can be employed to study systems relevant to current research in quantum many-body physics. Specifically, we employ a 2D tensorized gated RNN to explore the bosonic Hofstadter model with a variable local Hilbert space cutoff and long-range interactions. At first, we benchmark the RNN-NQS for the Hofstadter-Bose-Hubbard (HBH) Hamiltonian on a square lattice. We find that this method, despite the complexity of the wave function, is capable of efficiently identifying and representing most ground-state properties. Afterwards, we apply the method to an even more challenging model for current methods, namely, the Hofstadter model with long-range interactions. This model describes Rydberg-dressed atoms on a lattice subject to a synthetic magnetic field. We study systems of size up to 12×12 sites and identify three different regimes by tuning the interaction range and the filling fraction ν. In addition to phases known from the HBH model at short-range interaction, we observe bubble crystals and Wigner crystals for long-range interactions. Especially interesting is the evidence of a bubble crystal phase on a lattice, as this gives experiments a starting point for the search of clustered liquid phases, possibly hosting non-Abelian anyon excitations. In our work, we show that NQS are an efficient and reliable simulation method for quantum systems, which are the subject of current research. In particular, we demonstrate the ability of this method to simulate challenging systems with long-range interactions.
