Large classes of quantum scarred Hamiltonians from matrix product states

Motivated by the existence of exact many-body quantum scars in the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) chain, in this work we explore the connection between matrix product state (MPS) wave functions and many-body quantum scarred Hamiltonians. We provide a method to systematically search for and construct parent Hamiltonians with towers of exact eigenstates composed of quasiparticles on top of an MPS wave function. These exact eigenstates have low entanglement in spite of being in the middle of the spectrum, thus violating the strong eigenstate thermalization hypothesis. Using our approach, we recover the AKLT chain starting from the MPS of its ground state, and we derive the most general nearest-neighbor Hamiltonian that shares the AKLT quasiparticle tower of exact eigenstates. We further apply this formalism to other simple MPS wave functions, and derive families of Hamiltonians that exhibit AKLT-like quantum scars. As a consequence, we also construct a scar-preserving deformation that connects the AKLT chain to the integrable spin-1 pure biquadratic model. Finally, we also derive other families of Hamiltonians that exhibit types of exact quantum scars, including a $\textit{U}$(1)-invariant perturbed Potts model.

Monolayer CrCl 3 as an Ideal Test Bed for the Universality Classes of 2D Magnetism

The monolayer halides CrX 3 (X=Cl, Br, I) attract significant attention for realizing 2D magnets with genuine long-range order (LRO), challenging the Mermin-Wagner theorem. In this work, we show that monolayer CrCl 3 has the unique benefit of exhibiting tunable magnetic anisotropy upon applying a compressive strain. This opens the possibility to use CrCl 3 for producing and studying both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic 2D Ising-type LRO as well as the Berezinskii-Kosterlitz-Thouless (BKT) regime of 2D magnetism with quasi-LRO. Using state-of-the-art density functional theory, we explain how realistic compressive strain could be used to tune the monolayer's magnetic properties so that it could exhibit any of these phases. Building on large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we compute the phase diagram of strained CrCl 3 , as well as the magnon spectrum with spin-wave theory. Our results highlight the eminent suitability of monolayer CrCl 3 to achieve very high BKT transition temperatures, around 50 K, due to their singular dependence on the weak easy-plane anisotropy of the material.

10 kV Class 14 MHz Isolated Power Supply

This paper presents a single-switch based isolated power supply, utilizing a PCB based core-less transformer to achieve high inter-winding isolation and low common-mode capacitance. Detailed design procedure, considering the transformer to achieve full range ZVS, minimize voltage stress and minimize RMS currents is presented. The proposed methodology is experimentally validated at 14 MHz, with a load variation of 10:1 in output power and a maximum output power of 4 W. The proposed power supply is useful in applications such as MV gate drives and sensors.

A Scalable Pipeline for Gigapixel Whole Slide Imaging Analysis on Leadership Class HPC Systems

Whole Slide Imaging (WSI) captures microscopic details of a patient's histopathological features at multiple res-olutions organized across different levels. Images produced by WSI are gigapixel-sized, and saving a single image in memory requires a few gigabytes which is scarce since a complicated model occupies tens of gigabytes. Performing a simple met-ric operation on these large images is also expensive. High-performance computing (HPC) can help us quickly analyze such large images using distributed training of complex deep learning models. One popular approach in analyzing these images is to divide a WSI image into smaller tiles (patches) and then train a simpler model with these reduced-sized but large numbers of patches. However, we need to solve three pre-processing challenges efficiently for pursuing this patch-based approach. 1) Creating small patches from a high-resolution image can result in a high number (hundreds of thousands per image) of patches. Storing and processing these images can be challenging due to a large number of I/O and arithmetic operations. To reduce I/Oand memory accesses, an optimal balance between the size and number of patches must exist to reduce I/O and memory accesses. 2) WSI images may have tiny annotated regions for cancer tissue and a significant portion with normal and fatty tissues; correct patch sampling should avoid dataset imbalance. 3) storing and retrieving many patches to and from disk storage might incur I/O latency while training a deep learning model. An efficient distributed data loader should reduce I/O latency during the training and inference steps. This paper explores these three challenges and provides empirical and algorithmic solutions deployed on the Summit supercomputer hosted at the Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility.

A Perspective on Scalable AI on High-Performance Computing and Leadership Class Supercomputing Facilities [Industrial and Governmental Activities]

Many scientific applications that support the mission of the US Department of Energy (US-DoE) require modeling complex engineering and/or physical systems. Here, examples of such complex systems arise from: (a) materials science to develop new compounds with exceptional mechanical and thermodynamical properties (e.g., resistance to mechanical stresses and high temperatures), (b) structural and nuclear engineering to model the temporal evolution of the structural damage of concrete shields exposed to continuous neutron and gamma radiations emitted by the nuclear reactor core, (c) urban sciences (e.g., transportation and smart buildings), and (d) power grid systems.
