• Abstract: Programmable quantum simulators based on Rydberg atom arrays are a fast-emerging quantum platform, bringing together long coherence times, high-fidelity operations, and large numbers of interacting qubits deterministically arranged in flexible geometries. Today's Rydberg array devices are demonstrating their utility as quantum simulators for studying phases and phase transitions in quantum matter. In this paper, we show that unprocessed and imperfect experimental projective measurement data can be used to enhance in silico simulations of quantum matter, by improving the performance of variational Monte Carlo simulations. As an example, we focus on data spanning the disordered-to-checkerboard transition in a $16 \times 16$ square lattice array [S. Ebadi et al. Nature 595, 227 (2021)] and employ data-enhanced variational Monte Carlo to train powerful autoregressive wavefunction ans\"atze based on recurrent neural networks (RNNs). We observe universal improvements in the convergence times of our simulations with this hybrid training scheme. Notably, we also find that pre-training with experimental data enables relatively simple RNN ans\"atze to accurately capture phases of matter that are not learned with a purely variational training approach. Our work highlights the promise of hybrid quantum--classical approaches for large-scale simulation of quantum many-body systems, combining autoregressive language models with experimental data from existing quantum devices.

  Given a quantum circuit containing d tunable RZ gates and G-d Clifford gates, can a learner perform purely classical inference to efficiently predict its linear properties? We prove that the sample complexity scaling linearly in d is necessary and sufficient to achieve a small prediction error, while the corresponding computational complexity may scale exponentially in d. We devise a kernel-based learning model capable of trading off prediction error and computational complexity, transitioning from exponential to scaling in many practical settings.

  Rydberg atom arrays are programmable quantum simulators capable of preparing interacting qubit systems in a variety of quantum states. In this paper, we demonstrate how pretraining modern RNNs on even small amounts of data significantly reduces the convergence time for a subsequent variational optimization of the wavefunction. This suggests that essentially any amount of measurements obtained from a state prepared in an experimental quantum simulator could provide significant value for neural-network-based VMC strategies.
