Parabolic-hyperbolic splitting in support propagation for stochastic porous media equations

Deep learning offers a powerful approach to quantum many-body problems via neural network wavefunctions, but their optimization remains a severe bottleneck. Existing optimization methods, including natural gradient descent and stochastic reconfiguration, suffer from spectral gap-dependent convergence that limits their effectiveness on systems…

We propose a framework for the design and analysis of optimization algorithms in variational quantum Monte Carlo, drawing on geometric insights into the corresponding function space. The framework translates infinite-dimensional optimization dynamics into tractable parameter-space algorithms through a Galerkin projection onto the…
