Dimensionality reduction of the many-body problem using coupled-cluster subsystem flow equations: Classical and quantum computing perspective
Abstract
We discuss reduced-scaling strategies employing the recently introduced subsystem embedding subalgebra (SES) coupled-cluster (CC) formalism to describe quantum many-body systems. These strategies utilize properties of the SES CC formulations where the equations describing certain classes of subsystems can be integrated into computational flows composed of coupled eigenvalue problems of reduced dimensionality. Additionally, these flows can be determined at the level of the CC ansatz by the inclusion of selected classes of cluster amplitudes, which define the wave-function "memory" of possible partitioning of the many-body system into constituent subsystems. One of the possible ways of solving these coupled problems is through implementing procedures where the information is passed between the subsystems in a self-consistent manner. As a special case we consider local flow formulations where the local character of correlation effects can be closely related to the properties of subsystem embedding subalgebras employing a localized molecular basis. We also generalize flow equations to the time domain and to downfolding methods utilizing a double-exponential unitary CC ansatz, where the reduced dimensionality of constituent subproblems offers a possibility of efficient utilization of limited quantum resources in modeling realistic systems.
