Spectral convergence of sum-of-Gaussians tensor neural networks for many-electron Schrödinger equation

An improved version of the sum-of-Gaussians tensor neural network (SOG-TNN) architecture is presented for solving the many-electron Schrödinger equation for one-dimensional soft-Coulomb systems. Model reduction techniques are introduced to reduce the number of tensor-factorized bases under the SOG approximation of the kernel. The Slater determinant ansatz is employed so that the antisymmetric property of the wave function can be strictly preserved. Numerical results show that the SOG-TNN achieves high accuracy with remarkably small basis sizes. Robust spectral convergence with respect to the basis size is also observed, consistently characterized by a mixed algebraic-exponential model for the error decay. These findings validate that the SOG-TNN architecture provides an ultra-efficient and low-rank representation of complex multi-electron wave functions, shedding light on high-fidelity quantum calculations in larger-scale many-electron systems.
