要旨:
We investigate notions of complexity of states in continuous quantum-many
body systems. We focus on Gaussian states which include ground states of free
quantum field theories and their approximations encountered in the context of
the continuous version of Multiscale Entanglement Renormalization Ansatz. Our
proposal for quantifying state complexity is based on the Fubini-Study metric.
It leads to counting the number of applications of each gate (infinitesimal
generator) in the transformation, subject to a state-dependent metric. We
minimize the defined complexity with respect to momentum preserving quadratic
generators which form $\mathfrak{su}(1,1)$ algebras. On the manifold of
Gaussian states generated by these operations the Fubini-Study metric
factorizes into hyperbolic planes with minimal complexity circuits reducing to
known geodesics. Despite working with quantum field theories far outside the
regime where Einstein gravity duals exist, we find striking similarities
between our results and holographic complexity proposals.
