Hello, I’m Vinit!

I am a Ph.D. candidate at the Department of Chemistry at Purdue University, West Lafayette, advised by Prof. Sabre Kais, studying quantum many body systems using Simulations, Quantum Computation and Machine Learning. I have been working with Tensor Networks to understand the behavior of quantum entanglement in higher dimensions and arbitrary graphs. I strive to find emergent quantum phases of matter and study their phase transitions.

A study of the evolution of a quantum state under the action of an Approximate Ground State Projector (AGSP). We are performing direct analysis to bound the worst case of growth of entanglement rank and entropy which might lead to area laws in higher dimensions or improve the bounds of the subvolume laws. In the project, we are using GPU-accelerated Tensor Network architecture by combining MPNUM and CuPy.

Physical Review B

Principles of Machine Learning are applied to physical models that support skyrmion phases in two dimensions. Using Convolutional Neural Network successful predictions on various phases of the skyrmion model were obtained. The training scheme based on features of the input configuration makes reliable prediction of magnetization, spin chirality, magnetic field and temperature.

Application of Mixture Density Networks for Constraining Cross Sections from Swarm Measurements. The Swarm problem was simulated with Boltzmann Equations using Numerical Methods and Parallel Algorithms. We used Variational Autoencoder to find the critical features characterizing the transport coefficients and cross-sections. Recurrent Neural Network was used to capture the sequence to sequence mapping of the Inverse Swarm Problem.
