As the deep neural networks are being applied to complex tasks, the size of the networks and architecture increases and their topology becomes more complicated too. At the same time, training becomes slow and at some instances inefficient.…

We develop a density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm for the simulation of quantum circuits. This algorithm can be seen as the extension of time-dependent DMRG from the usual situation of hermitian Hamiltonian matrices to…

In reconstruction analysis of galaxy redshift surveys, one works backwards from the observed galaxy distribution to the primordial density field in the same region, then evolves the primordial fluctuations forward in time with an N-body…
