• Authors: Jos\'e Garre-Rubio, Laurens Lootens, Andr\'as Moln\'ar
• Abstract summary: We classify the different ways in which matrix product states (MPSs) can stay invariant under the action of matrix product operator (MPO) symmetries. This is achieved through a local characterization of how the MPSs, that generate a ground space, remain invariant under a global MPO symmetry.

• Abstract: We classify the different ways in which matrix product states (MPSs) can stay invariant under the action of matrix product operator (MPO) symmetries. This is achieved through a local characterization of how the MPSs, that generate a ground space, remain invariant under a global MPO symmetry. This characterization yields a set of quantities satisfying the coupled pentagon equations, associated with a module category over the fusion category that describes the MPO symmetry. Equivalence classes of these quantities provide complete invariants for an MPO symmetry protected phase: they are robust under continuous deformations of the MPS tensor, and two phases with the same equivalence class can be connected by a symmetric gapped path. Our techniques match and extend the known renormalization fixed point classifications and facilitate the numerical study of these systems. For MPO symmetries described by a group, we recover the symmetry protected topological order classification for unique and degenerate ground states. Moreover, we study the interplay between time reversal symmetry and an MPO symmetry and we also provide examples of our classification, together with explicit constructions based on groups. Finally, we elaborate on the connection between our setup and gapped boundaries of two-dimensional topological systems, where MPO symmetries also play a key role.

  We investigate the impact of weight space permutation symmetries on variational inference. We devise a symmetric symmetrization mechanism for constructing permutation invariant variational posteriors. We show that the symmetrized distribution has a strictly better fit to the true posterior, and that it can be trained using the original ELBO objective.

The symmetry transformations and the corresponding generators are modeled with fully connected neural networks trained with a specially constructed loss function. The two new elements in this work are the use of a reduced-dimensionality latent space and the generalization to transformations invariant with respect to high-dimensional oracles.
