• Abstract: We describe a neural network architecture and training procedure designed to model electronic ground and excited states of arbitrary molecular systems. By indirectly learning a latent, implicit basis representation of the electronic-state Hamiltonian, the model offers a unified treatment of multiple electronic states, conical intersections, and non-adiabatic couplings. The formalism can be further extended to learn consistent latent representations of additional operators such as transition dipole moments, for example. To demonstrate the general capabilities of our architecture, we train and evaluate networks on two realistic photochemical systems, thymine and azobenzene. The resulting models accurately reproduce energies and oscillator strengths for the ground- and low-lying excited states relevant to the photochemistry of these systems. We highlight the performance of the trained networks by studying critical molecular geometries, including conical intersections and excited state minima. By construction, the proposed framework also recovers the emergence of Berry phase accumulation around conical intersections. By pairing key mathematical structure from quantum chemistry with the representation learning power of transformers, the presented architecture offers a qualitatively new path toward fast and accurate ground- and excited-state simulations.
