Abstract

Understanding properties of quantum matter is an outstanding challenge in science. In this paper, we demonstrate how machine-learning methods can be successfully applied for the classification of various regimes in single-particle and many-body systems. We realize neural network algorithms that perform a classification between regular and chaotic behavior in quantum billiard models with remarkably high accuracy. We use the variational autoencoder for autosupervised classification of regular/chaotic wave functions, as well as demonstrating that autoencoders could be used as a tool for detection of anomalous quantum states, such as quantum scars. By taking this method further, we show that machine-learning techniques allow us to pin down the transition from integrability to many-body quantum chaos in Heisenberg XXZ spin chains. For both cases, we confirm the existence of universal W shapes that characterize the transition. Our results pave the way for exploring the power of machine-learning tools for revealing exotic phenomena in quantum many-body systems.
