Abstract
We describe a matrix product state (MPS) extension for the Fermionic Quantum Emulator (FQE) software library. We discuss the theory behind symmetry-adapted MPSs for approximating many-body wave functions of spin-1/2 Fermions, and we present an open-source, MPS-enabled implementation of the FQE interface (MPS-FQE). The software uses the open-source pyblock3 and block2 libraries for most elementary tensor operations, and it can largely be used as a drop-in replacement for FQE that allows for more efficient but approximate emulation of larger Fermionic circuits. Finally, we show several applications relevant to both near-term and fault-tolerant quantum algorithms where approximate emulation of larger systems is expected to be useful: characterization of state preparation strategies for quantum phase estimation, the testing of different variational quantum eigensolver ansätze, the numerical evaluation of Trotter errors, and the simulation of general quantum dynamics problems. In all these examples, approximate emulation with MPS-FQE allows us to treat systems that are significantly larger than those accessible with a full statevector emulator.

Abstract
We present a machine learning (ML) framework for predicting Green's functions of molecular systems, from which photoemission spectra and quasiparticle energies at quantum many-body level can be obtained. Kernel ridge regression is adopted to predict self-energy matrix elements on compact imaginary frequency grids from static and dynamical mean-field electronic features, which gives direct access to real-frequency many-body Green's functions through analytic continuation and Dyson's equation. Feature and self-energy matrices are represented in a symmetry-adapted intrinsic atomic orbital plus projected atomic orbital basis to enforce rotational invariance. We demonstrate good transferability and high data efficiency of the proposed ML method across molecular sizes and chemical species by showing accurate predictions of density of states (DOS) and quasiparticle energies at the level of many-body perturbation theory (GW) or full configuration interaction. For the ML model trained on 48 out of 1995 molecules randomly sampled from the QM7 and QM9 data sets, we report the mean absolute errors of ML-predicted highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital energies to be 0.13 and 0.10 eV, respectively, compared to GW@PBE0. We further showcase the capability of this method by applying the same ML model to predict DOS for significantly larger organic molecules with up to 44 heavy atoms.

Abstract
block2 is an open source framework to implement and perform density matrix renormalization group and matrix product state algorithms. Out-of-the-box it supports the eigenstate, time-dependent, response, and finite-temperature algorithms. In addition, it carries special optimizations for ab initio electronic structure Hamiltonians and implements many quantum chemistry extensions to the density matrix renormalization group, such as dynamical correlation theories. The code is designed with an emphasis on flexibility, extensibility, and efficiency and to support integration with external numerical packages. Here, we explain the design principles and currently supported features and present numerical examples in a range of applications.

Abstract
We describe an ab initio approach to simulate L-edge X-ray absorption (XAS) and 2p3d resonant inelastic X-ray scattering (RIXS) spectroscopies. We model the strongly correlated electronic structure within a restricted active space and employ a correction vector formulation instead of sum-over-state expressions for the spectra, thus eliminating the need to calculate a large number of intermediate and final electronic states. We present benchmark simulations of the XAS and RIXS spectra of the iron complexes [FeCl4]1-/2- and [Fe(SCH3)4]1-/2- and interpret the spectra by deconvolving the correction vectors. Our approach represents a step toward simulating the X-ray spectroscopies of larger metal cluster systems that play a pivotal role in biology.

Abstract
Recent experimental advances have stimulated interest in the use of large, two-dimensional arrays of Rydberg atoms as a platform for quantum information processing and to study exotic many-body quantum states. However, the native long-range interactions between the atoms complicate experimental analysis and precise theoretical understanding of these systems. Here we use new tensor network algorithms capable of including all long-range interactions to study the ground state phase diagram of Rydberg atoms in a geometrically unfrustrated square lattice array. We find a greatly altered phase diagram from earlier numerical and experimental studies, revealed by studying the phases on the bulk lattice and their analogs in experiment-sized finite arrays. We further describe a previously unknown region with a nematic phase stabilized by short-range entanglement and an order from disorder mechanism. Broadly our results yield a conceptual guide for future experiments, while our techniques provide a blueprint for converging numerical studies in other lattices.

Abstract
Thanks to the high compression of the matrix product state (MPS) form of the wave function and the efficient site-by-site iterative sweeping optimization algorithm, the density matrix normalization group (DMRG) and its time-dependent variant (TD-DMRG) have been established as powerful computational tools in accurately simulating the electronic structure and quantum dynamics of strongly correlated molecules with a large number (101-2) of quantum degrees of freedom (active orbitals or vibrational modes). However, the quantitative characterization of the quantum many-body behaviors of realistic strongly correlated systems requires a further consideration of the interaction between the embedded active subsystem and the remaining correlated environment, e.g., a larger number (102-3) of external orbitals in electronic structure or infinite condensed-phase phononic modes in nucleus dynamics. To this end, we introduced three new post-DMRG and TD-DMRG approaches, namely (1) DMRG2sCI-MRCI and DMRG2sCI-ENPT by the reconstruction of selected configuration interaction (sCI) type of compact reference function from DMRG coefficients and the use of externally contracted MRCI (multireference configuration interaction) and Epstein-Nesbet perturbation theory (ENPT), without recourse to the expensive high order n-electron reduced density matrices (n-RDMs). (2) DMRG combined with RR-MRCI (renormalized residue-based MRCI), which improves the computational accuracy and efficiency of internally contracted (ic) MRCI by renormalizing the contracted bases with small-sized buffer environment(s) of a few external orbitals as probes based on quantum information theory. (3) HM (hierarchical mapping)-TD-DMRG in which a large environment is reduced to a small number of renormalized environmental modes (which accounts for the most vital system-environment interactions) through stepwise mapping transformation. These advances extend the efficacy of highly accurate DMRG/TD-DMRG computations to the quantitative characterization of the electronic structure and quantum dynamics in realistic strongly correlated systems coupled with large environments and are reviewed in this paper.

Abstract
We present the theory of a density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) algorithm which can solve for both the ground and excited states of non-Hermitian transcorrelated Hamiltonians and show applications in molecular systems. Transcorrelation (TC) accelerates the basis set convergence rate by including known physics (such as, but not limited to, the electron-electron cusp) in the Jastrow factor used for the similarity transformation. It also improves the accuracy of approximate methods such as coupled cluster singles and doubles (CCSD) as shown by recent studies. However, the non-Hermiticity of the TC Hamiltonians poses challenges for variational methods like DMRG. Imaginary-time evolution on the matrix product state (MPS) in the DMRG framework has been proposed to circumvent this problem, but this is currently limited to treating the ground state and has lower efficiency than the time-independent DMRG (TI-DMRG) due to the need to eliminate Trotter errors. In this work, we show that with minimal changes to the existing TI-DMRG algorithm, namely, replacing the original Davidson solver with the general Davidson solver to solve the non-Hermitian effective Hamiltonians at each site for a few low-lying right eigenstates, and following the rest of the original DMRG recipe, one can find the ground and excited states with improved efficiency compared to the original DMRG when extrapolating to the infinite bond dimension limit in the same basis set. An accelerated basis set convergence rate is also observed, as expected, within the TC framework.

Abstract
The ionization of molecular systems is important in many chemical processes, such as electron transfer and hot electron injection. Strong coupling between molecules and quantized fields (e.g., inside optical cavities) represents a new promising way to modify molecular properties in a non-invasive way. Recently, strong light-matter coupling has shown the potential to significantly improve the rates of hot electron driven processes, for instance, in water splitting. In this paper, we demonstrate that inside an optical cavity, the residual interaction between an outgoing free electron and the vacuum field is significant. We further show that since the quantized field is also interacting with the ionized molecule, the free electron and the molecular system are correlated. We develop a theoretical framework to account for the field induced correlation and show that the interaction between the free electron and the field, free electron-field interaction, has sizable effects on the ionization potential of typical organic molecules.

Abstract
We propose a method to calculate the spectral functions of many-body systems by Chebyshev expansion in the framework of matrix product states coupled with canonical orthogonalization (coCheMPS). The canonical orthogonalization can improve the accuracy and efficiency significantly because the orthogonalized Chebyshev vectors can provide an ideal basis for constructing the effective Hamiltonian in which the exact recurrence relation can be retained. In addition, not only the spectral function but also the excited states and eigenenergies can be directly calculated, which is usually impossible for other MPS-based methods such as time-dependent formalism or correction vector. The remarkable accuracy and efficiency of coCheMPS over other methods are demonstrated by calculating the spectral functions of spin chain and ab initio hydrogen chain. For the first time we demonstrate that Chebyshev MPS can be used to deal with ab initio electronic Hamiltonian effectively. We emphasize the strength of coCheMPS to calculate the low excited states of systems with sparse discrete spectrum. We also caution the application for electron-phonon systems with dense density of states.

Abstract
We describe an iterative formalism to compute influence functionals that describe the general quantum dynamics of a subsystem beyond the assumption of linear coupling to a quadratic bath. We use a space-time tensor network representation of the influence functional and investigate its approximability in terms of its bond dimension and time-like entanglement in the tensor network description. We study two numerical models, the spin-boson model and a model of interacting hard-core bosons in a 1D harmonic trap. We find that the influence functional and the intermediates involved in its construction can be efficiently approximated by low bond dimension tensor networks in certain dynamical regimes, which allows the quantum dynamics to be accurately computed for longer times than with direct time evolution methods. However, as one iteratively integrates out the bath, the correlations in the influence functional can first increase before decreasing, indicating that the final compressibility of the influence functional is achieved via non-trivial cancellation.

Abstract
We extend the finite-temperature Keldysh non-equilibrium coupled cluster theory (Keldysh-CC) [A. F. White and G. K.-L. Chan, J. Chem. Theory Comput. 15, 6137-6253 (2019)] to include a time-dependent orbital basis. When chosen to minimize the action, such a basis restores local and global conservation laws (Ehrenfest's theorem) for all one-particle properties while remaining energy conserving for time-independent Hamiltonians. We present the time-dependent Keldysh orbital-optimized coupled cluster doubles method in analogy with the formalism for zero-temperature dynamics, extended to finite temperatures through the time-dependent action on the Keldysh contour. To demonstrate the conservation property and understand the numerical performance of the method, we apply it to several problems of non-equilibrium finite-temperature dynamics: a 1D Hubbard model with a time-dependent Peierls phase, laser driving of molecular H2, driven dynamics in warm-dense silicon, and transport in the single impurity Anderson model.

Abstract
In this work, we simulate the electron dynamics in molecular systems with the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group (TD-DMRG) algorithm. We leverage the generality of the so-called tangent-space TD-DMRG formulation and design a computational framework in which the dynamics is driven by the exact nonrelativistic electronic Hamiltonian. We show that by parametrizing the wave function as a matrix product state, we can accurately simulate the dynamics of systems including up to 20 electrons and 32 orbitals. We apply the TD-DMRG algorithm to three problems that are hardly targeted by time-independent methods: the calculation of molecular (hyper)polarizabilities, the simulation of electronic absorption spectra, and the study of ultrafast ionization dynamics.

Abstract
In this work, we propose a new method to calculate molecular nonradiative electronic relaxation rates based on the numerically exact time-dependent density matrix renormalization group theory. This method could go beyond the existing frameworks under the harmonic approximation (HA) of the potential energy surface (PES) so that the anharmonic effect could be considered, which is of vital importance when the electronic energy gap is much larger than the vibrational frequency. We calculate the internal conversion (IC) rates in a two-mode model with Morse potential to investigate the validity of HA. We find that HA is unsatisfactory unless only the lowest several vibrational states of the lower electronic state are involved in the transition process when the adiabatic excitation energy is relatively low. As the excitation energy increases, HA first underestimates and then overestimates the IC rates when the excited state PES shifts toward the dissociative side of the ground state PES. On the contrary, HA slightly overestimates the IC rates when the excited state PES shifts toward the repulsive side. In both cases, a higher temperature enlarges the error of HA. As a real example to demonstrate the effectiveness and scalability of the method, we calculate the IC rates of azulene from S1 to S0 on the ab initio anharmonic PES approximated by the one-mode representation. The calculated IC rates of azulene under HA are consistent with the analytically exact results. The rates on the anharmonic PES are 30%-40% higher than the rates under HA.

Abstract
In this paper, we analyze the numerical aspects of the inherent multireference density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) calculations on top of the periodic Kohn-Sham density functional theory using the complete active space approach. The potential of the framework is illustrated by studying hexagonal boron nitride nanoflakes embedding a charged single boron vacancy point defect by revealing a vertical energy spectrum with a prominent multireference character. We investigate the consistency of the DMRG energy spectrum from the perspective of sample size, basis size, and active space selection protocol. Results obtained from standard quantum chemical atom-centered basis calculations and plane-wave based counterparts show excellent agreement. Furthermore, we also discuss the spectrum of the periodic sheet which is in good agreement with extrapolated data of finite clusters. These results pave the way toward applying the DMRG method in extended correlated solid-state systems, such as point defect qubit in wide band gap semiconductors.

Abstract
We introduce the transcorrelated Density Matrix Renormalization Group (tcDMRG) theory for the efficient approximation of the energy for strongly correlated systems. tcDMRG encodes the wave function as a product of a fixed Jastrow or Gutzwiller correlator and a matrix product state. The latter is optimized by applying the imaginary-time variant of time-dependent (TD) DMRG to the non-Hermitian transcorrelated Hamiltonian. We demonstrate the efficiency of tcDMRG with the example of the two-dimensional Fermi-Hubbard Hamiltonian, a notoriously difficult target for the DMRG algorithm, for different sizes, occupation numbers, and interaction strengths. We demonstrate fast energy convergence of tcDMRG, which indicates that tcDMRG could increase the efficiency of standard DMRG beyond quasi-monodimensional systems and provides a generally powerful approach toward the dynamic correlation problem of DMRG.

Abstract
![]()
Computational spectroscopy is becoming a mandatory tool for the interpretation of the
complex, and often congested, spectral maps delivered by modern non-linear multi-pulse
techniques. The fields of Electronic Structure Methods,
Non-Adiabatic Molecular Dynamics, and Theoretical
Spectroscopy represent the three pillars of the virtual ultrafast
optical spectrometer, able to deliver transient spectra in
silico from first principles. A successful simulation strategy requires a
synergistic approach that balances between the three fields, each one having its very
own challenges and bottlenecks. The aim of this Perspective is to demonstrate that,
despite these challenges, an impressive agreement between theory and experiment is
achievable now regarding the modeling of ultrafast photoinduced processes in complex
molecular architectures. Beyond that, some key recent developments in the three fields
are presented that we believe will have major impacts on spectroscopic simulations in
the very near future. Potential directions of development, pending challenges, and
rising opportunities are illustrated.

Abstract
Constructing matrix product operators (MPOs) is at the core of the modern density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) and its time dependent formulation. For the DMRG to be conveniently used in different problems described by different Hamiltonians, in this work, we propose a new generic algorithm to construct the MPO of an arbitrary operator with a sum-of-products form based on the bipartite graph theory. We show that the method has the following advantages: (i) it is automatic in that only the definition of the operator is required; (ii) it is symbolic thus free of any numerical error; (iii) the complementary operator technique can be fully employed so that the resulting MPO is globally optimal for any given order of degrees of freedom; and (iv) the symmetry of the system could be fully employed to reduce the dimension of MPO. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the new algorithm, the MPOs of Hamiltonians ranging from the prototypical spin-boson model and the Holstein model to the more complicated ab initio electronic Hamiltonian and the anharmonic vibrational Hamiltonian with the sextic force field are constructed. It is found that for the former three cases, our automatic algorithm can reproduce exactly the same MPOs as the optimally hand-crafted ones already known in the literature.

Abstract
We present a novel methodology through casting the dynamical density matrix renormalization group (DDMRG) into the matrix product state (MPS) formulation to calculate the spectroscopy at finite temperature for molecular aggregates. The frequency domain algorithm can avoid the time evolution accumulation of error and is naturally suitable for parallelization, in addition to facile graphic processing unit (GPU) acceleration. The high accuracy is demonstrated by simulating the optical spectra of vibronic model systems ranging from an exactly solvable dimer model to a more complex real-world perylene bisimide (PBI) J-aggregate. The relationship between the 0-0 emission strength and the exciton thermal coherent length is discussed for linearly stacked aggregates. The computing performance largely boosted by GPU demonstrates that DDMRG emerges as a promising method to study dynamical properties for complex systems.

Abstract
The time dependent density matrix renormalization group (TD-DMRG) has become one of the cutting edge methods of quantum dynamics for complex systems. In this paper, we comparatively study the accuracy of three time evolution schemes in the TD-DMRG, the global propagation and compression method with the Runge-Kutta algorithm (P&C-RK), the time dependent variational principle based methods with the matrix unfolding algorithm (TDVP-MU), and with the projector-splitting algorithm (TDVP-PS), by performing benchmarks on the exciton dynamics of the Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex. We show that TDVP-MU and TDVP-PS yield the same result when the time step size is converged and they are more accurate than P&C-RK4, while TDVP-PS tolerates a larger time step size than TDVP-MU. We further adopt the graphical processing units to accelerate the heavy tensor contractions in the TD-DMRG, and it is able to speed up the TDVP-MU and TDVP-PS schemes by up to 73 times.
