Adaptive Tensor Network Simulation via Entropy-Feedback PID Control and GPU-Accelerated SVD

Abstract

Tensor network methods, particularly those based on Matrix Product States (MPS), provide a powerful framework for simulating quantum many-body systems. A persistent computational challenge in these methods is the selection of the bond dimension chi, which controls the trade-off between accuracy and computational cost. Fixed bond dimension strategies either waste resources in low-entanglement regions or lose fidelity in high-entanglement regions. This work introduces an adaptive bond dimension management framework that uses von Neumann entropy feedback coupled with a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller to dynamically adjust chi at each bond during simulation. An Exponential Moving Average (EMA) filter stabilizes entropy measurements against transient fluctuations, and a predictive scheduling module anticipates future bond dimension requirements from entropy trends. The per-bond granularity of the allocation ensures that computational resources concentrate where entanglement is largest. The framework integrates GPU-accelerated Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) via CuPy and the cuSOLVER backend, achieving individual SVD speedups of 4.1x at chi=256 and 7.1x at chi=2048 relative to CPU-based NumPy for isolated matrix factorisations (measured on an NVIDIA A100-SXM4-40GB GPU with CuPy 13.4.1 and CUDA 12.8). At the system level, benchmarks on the spin-1/2 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg chain demonstrate a 2.7x reduction in total DMRG wall time compared to fixed-chi simulations, with energy accuracy within 0.1% of the Bethe ansatz solution. Integration with the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) algorithm yields ground-state energies per site converging to E/N = -0.4432 for the isotropic Heisenberg model at chi = 128. Validation against Amazon Web Services (AWS) Braket SV1 statevector simulator confirms agreement within 2-5% for small systems.
