We calculate numerically the fidelity and its susceptibility for the ground state of the Dicke model. A minimum in the fidelity identifies the critical value of the interaction where a quantum phase crossover, the precursor of a phase transition for finite number of atoms N, takes place. The evolution of these observables is studied as a function of N, and their critical exponents evaluated. Using the critical exponents the universal curve for the specific susceptibility is recovered. An estimate to the precision to which the ground state wave function is numerically calculated is given, and found to have its lowest value, for a fixed truncation, in a vicinity of the critical coupling.

The notion of fidelity susceptibility, introduced within the context of quantum metric tensor, has been an important quantity to characterize the criticality near quantum phase transitions. We demonstrate that for topological phase transitions in Dirac models, provided the momentum space is treated as the manifold of the quantum metric, the fidelity susceptibility coincides with the curvature function whose integration gives the topological invariant. Thus the quantum criticality of the curvature function near a topological phase transition also describes the criticality of the fidelity suscep…
In idealized models of a quantum register and its environment, quantum information can be stored indefinitely by encoding it into a decoherence-free subspace (DFS). Nevertheless, perturbations to the idealized register-environment coupling will cause decoherence in any realistic setting. Expanding a measure for state preservation, the dynamical fidelity, in powers of the strength of the perturbations, we prove stability to linear order is a generic property of quantum state evolution. The effect of noise perturbation is quantified by a concise expression for the strength of the quadratic, lead…
We present a divide-and-conquer approach to deterministically prepare Dicke states $\lvert D_k^n\rangle$ (i.e., equal-weight superpositions of all $n$-qubit states with Hamming Weight $k$) on quantum computers. In an experimental evaluation for up to $n=6$ qubits on IBM Quantum Sydney and Montreal devices, we achieve significantly higher state fidelity compared to previous results [Mukherjee and others, TQE'2020], [Cruz and others, QuTe'2019]. The fidelity gains are achieved through several techniques: Our circuits first "divide" the Hamming weight between blocks of $n/2$ qubits, and then "con…

In order to analyze the fidelity susceptibility of non-relativistic field theories, which are important in condensed matter systems, we generalize the proposal to obtain the fidelity susceptibility holographically to Lifshitz geometries. It will be argued that this proposal can be used to study the fidelity susceptibility for various condensed matter systems. To demonstrated this, we will explicitly use this proposal to analyze the fidelity susceptibility for a non-relativistic many-body system, and argue that the fidelity susceptibility of this theory can be holographically obtained from a bu…
We investigate quantum phase transitions in one-dimensional quantum disordered lattice models, the Anderson model and the Aubry-André model, from the fidelity susceptibility approach. First, we find that the fidelity susceptibility and the generalized adiabatic susceptibility are maximum at the quantum critical points of the disordered models, through which one can locate the quantum critical point in disordered lattice models. Second, finite-size scaling analysis of the fidelity susceptibility and of the generalized adiabatic susceptibility show that the correlation length critical exponent a…
Quantum criticality usually occurs in many-body systems. Recently it was shown that the quantum Rabi model, which describes a two-level atom coupled to a single model cavity field, presents quantum phase transitions from a normal phase to a superradiate phase when the ratio between the frequency of the two level atom and the frequency of the cavity field extends to infinity. In this work, we study quantum phase transitions in the quantum Rabi model from the fidelity susceptibility perspective. We found that the fidelity susceptibility and the generalized adiabatic susceptibility present univer…
We compare the irreversible work produced in an infinitesimal sudden quench of a quantum system at zero temperature with its ground state fidelity susceptibility, giving an explicit relation between the two quantities. We find that the former is proportional to the latter but for an extra term appearing in the irreversible work which includes also contributions from the excited states. We calculate explicitly the two quantities in the case of the quantum Ising chain, showing that at criticality they exhibit different scaling behavior. The irreversible work, rescaled by square of the quench's a…
Symmetric ensembles of neutral atoms interacting via the Rydberg blockade are well-described by the Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian. We use this framework to study the problem of generating arbitrary superpositions of Dicke states of hyperfine qubits in such ensembles. The combination of the symmetric Rydberg blockade and microwaves that drive the qubits with a time-dependent phase is sufficient to make these ensembles completely controllable, in the sense that one can generate an arbitrary unitary transformation on the system. We apply this to the problem of state mapping. With currently feasible…
It was proposed by Miyaji et al. that the fidelity susceptibility of a state of a conformal field theory under a marginal deformation is holographically dual to the volume of a maximal time slice in the dual Anti de Sitter spacetime. We study this proposal by analyzing the leading and subleading divergences in these two quantities in two specific scenarios. We find that although the structure of the divergences in these two quantities is similar, their numerical coefficients are inconsistent with an exact relationship between these two quantities.
We characterize excited state quantum phase transitions in the two dimensional limit of the vibron model with the quantum fidelity susceptibility, comparing the obtained results with the information provided by the participation ratio. As an application, we perform fits using a four-body algebraic Hamiltonian to bending vibrational data for several molecular species and, using the optimized eigenvalues and eigenstates, we locate the eigenstate closest to the barrier to linearity and determine the linear or bent character of the different overtones.
The fidelity susceptibility measures sensitivity of eigenstates to a change of an external parameter. It has been fruitfully used to pin down quantum phase transitions when applied to ground states (with extensions to thermal states). Here we propose to use the fidelity susceptibility as a useful dimensionless measure for complex quantum systems. We find analytically the fidelity susceptibility distributions for Gaussian orthogonal and unitary universality classes for arbitrary system size. The results are verified by a comparison with numerical data.
For a field theory with a gravitational dual, we study holographic fidelity susceptibility for two states related by a deformation of a relevant operator. To do so, we study back reaction of a massive scalar field on the asymptotic behavior of the metric in an Einstein gravity coupled to a massive scalar field. Identifying the two states, holographically, with the original and back reacted geometries, the corresponding holographic fidelity susceptibility is given by the difference of the volume of an extremal time slice evaluated on the original and back reacted geometries.
We derive the exact expression for the Uhlmann fidelity between arbitrary thermal Gibbs states of the quantum XY model in a transverse field with finite system size. Using it, we conduct a thorough analysis of the fidelity susceptibility of thermal states for the Ising model in a transverse field. We compare the exact results with a common approximation that considers only the positive-parity subspace, which is shown to be valid only at high temperatures. The proper inclusion of the odd parity subspace leads to the enhancement of maximal fidelity susceptibility in the intermediate range of tem…
Automatic differentiation is an invaluable feature of machine learning and quantum machine learning software libraries. In this work it is shown how quantum automatic differentiation can be used to solve the condensed-matter problem of computing fidelity susceptibility, a quantity whose value may be indicative of a phase transition in a system. Results are presented using simulations including hardware noise for small instances of the transverse-field Ising model, and a number of optimizations that can be applied are highlighted. Error mitigation (zero-noise extrapolation) is applied within th…
The fidelity susceptibility has been used to detect quantum phase transitions in the Hermitian quantum many-body systems over a decade, where the fidelity susceptibility density approaches $+\infty$ in the thermodynamic limits. Here the fidelity susceptibility $χ$ is generalized to non-Hermitian quantum systems by taking the geometric structure of the Hilbert space into consideration. Instead of solving the metric equation of motion from scratch, we chose a gauge where the fidelities are composed of biorthogonal eigenstates and can be worked out algebraically or numerically when not on the exc…
