• Abstract: The detection of quantum and classical phase transitions in the absence of an order parameter is possible using the Fisher information metric (FIM), also known as fidelity susceptibility. Here, we propose and investigate an unsupervised machine learning (ML) task: estimating the FIM given limited samples from a multivariate probability distribution of measurements made throughout the phase diagram. We utilize an unsupervised ML method called ClassiFIM (developed in a companion paper) to solve this task and demonstrate its empirical effectiveness in detecting both quantum and classical phase transitions using a variety of spin and fermionic models, for which we generate several publicly available datasets with accompanying ground-truth FIM. We find that ClassiFIM reliably detects both topological (e.g., XXZ chain) and dynamical (e.g., metal-insulator transition in Hubbard model) quantum phase transitions. We perform a detailed quantitative comparison with prior unsupervised ML methods for detecting quantum phase transitions. We demonstrate that ClassiFIM is competitive with these prior methods in terms of appropriate accuracy metrics while requiring significantly less resource-intensive training data compared to the original formulation of the prior methods. In particular, ClassiFIM only requires classical (single-basis) measurements. As part of our methodology development, we prove several theorems connecting the classical and quantum fidelity susceptibilities through equalities or bounds. We also significantly expand the existence conditions of the fidelity susceptibility, e.g., by relaxing standard differentiability conditions. These results may be of independent interest to the mathematical physics community.

  We study the identification of quantum phases of matter, at zero temperature, when only part of the phase diagram is known in advance.

  We show that a measure of information flow from the quantum system to the classical measurement record undergoes a phase transition in correspondence with the measurement-induced phase transition (MIPT) This transition determines the eavesdropper's (in)ability to learn properties of an unknown initial quantum state of the system. We focus on three applications of interest: Pauli expectation values, many-body fidelity, and global charge in $U(1)$-symmetric dynamics.

  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.
