Representability-Aware Neural Networks for Reduced Density Matrices: Application to Fractional Chern Insulators
A new neural network framework has been developed to predict two-particle reduced density matrices (2-RDMs) with a focus on representability conditions. This framework has been applied to study fractional Chern insulators, specifically in the context of twisted bilayer MoTe$_2$. The results indicate that the neural network achieves high accuracy while using significantly fewer parameters compared to traditional methods.
- ▪The neural network framework incorporates representability conditions through its architecture and loss function.
- ▪It can predict 2-RDMs on large momentum meshes by interpolating results from smaller meshes.
- ▪The best-performing neural network achieved an accuracy of 97.07%-98.18% relative to exact diagonalization results.
