SUMMARY:Variational embedding for quantum ground-state energy problems
LOCATION:Hill 525
DESCRIPTION:In this talk, we consider the quantum many body problems and introduce a su
 m-of-squares SDP hierarchy approximating the ground-state energy from below
  with a natural quantum embedding interpretation. We establish the connecti
 ons between our approach and other variational methods for lower bounds, in
 cluding the RDM method in quantum chemistry and the Anderson bounds. Additi
 onally, inspired by the quantum information theory, we propose efficient st
 rategies for optimizing cluster selection to tighten SDP relaxations while 
 staying within a computational budget. Numerical experiments are presented 
 to demonstrate the effectiveness of our strategy. As a by-product of our in
 vestigation, we find that quantum entanglement has the potential to capture
  the underlying graph of the many-body Hamiltonian.\n
