Quantum targeted energy transfer through machine learning tools.

Abstract

In quantum targeted energy transfer, bosons are transferred from a certain crystal site to an alternative one, utilizing a nonlinear resonance configuration similar to the classical targeted energy transfer. We use a computational method based on machine learning algorithms in order to investigate selectivity as well as efficiency of the quantum transfer in the context of a dimer and a trimer system. We find that our method identifies resonant quantum transfer paths that allow boson transfer in unison. The method is readily extensible to larger lattice systems involving nonlinear resonances.
