- Abstract: Simulation of the single-particle tunneling problem by means of the
Suzuki-Trotter approximation (STA) is analyzed. Considered is a particle
hopping across a chain of sites in presence of a smooth position-dependent
potential profile with several local minima that arrange a tunneling problem
between the localized states in different minima. The STA error is found to
manifest itself in three ways: i) perturbative energy shifts, ii)
nonperturbartive renormalization of the tunneling rates, and iii) perturbative
leakage of the total probability to other states. Generally, the first type of
error is the most essential, as detuning of the tunneling resonance has to be
compared with exponentially small tunneling rates. In absence of detuning (e.g.
if the resonance is protected by symmetry), STA leads to exponential
enhancement of the tunneling rates. The last type of error classifies the
overall defect in the wave function and delineates the region of sufficiently
weak distortion of the wave function due to STA. The conducted analysis
confirms the naive criteria of applicability $\max\{T,P\}\ll\delta t^{-1}$
(with $T,P$ being the typical scales of kinetic and potential terms,
respectively), while also revealing the structure of error and its behavior
with system parameters. Analysis of the case of large Trotter step is also
performed, with the main result being the reconstruction of low-energy spectrum
due to coupling between states with energy difference close to $2\pi/\delta t$.
The connection of the obtained results with rigorous upper error bounds on the
STA error is discussed, with particular emphasis on why these rigorous bounds
are not always saturated. We also point out that the proposed problem can be
directly implemented on existing quantum devices [arXiv:2012.00921]. In
particular, we give a detailed description of an experimental design that
demonstrates the described physics.

A quantum analogue of the Thom's classical catastrophe would manifest itself, experimentally, via a reordering of the maxima of the probability density paralleled by avoided crossings of the energy levels.
A systematic exact (or, better, quasi-exact) construction of the relocalization instants is proposed here.
The approach is shown to yield the mutually consistent non-polynomial analytic potentials together with the related non-numerical multi-Gaussian-shaped wave functions.

We show that parameter-dependent noise -- induced by mini-batches or label perturbation -- is far more effective than Gaussian noise.
Our analysis reveals that parameter-dependent noise introduces a bias towards local minima with smaller noise variance, whereas spherical Gaussian noise does not.

We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront.
The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
