The QISG suite: High-performance codes for studying quantum Ising spin glasses.

We release a set of GPU programs for the study of the Quantum (S = 1 / 2) Spin Glass on a square lattice, with binary couplings. The library contains two main codes: MCQSG (that carries out Monte Carlo simulations using both the Metropolis and the Parallel Tempering algorithms, for the problem formulated in the Trotter-Suzuki approximation), and EDQSG (that obtains the extremal eigenvalues of the Transfer Matrix using the Lanczos algorithm). EDQSG has allowed us to diagonalize transfer matrices with size up to 2 36 × 2 36. From its side, MCQSG running on four NVIDIA A100 cards delivers a sub-picosecond time per spin-update, a performance that is competitive with dedicated hardware. We include as well in our library GPU programs for the analysis of the spin configurations generated by MCQSG. Finally, we provide two auxiliary codes: the first generates the lookup tables employed by the random number generator of MCQSG; the second one simplifies the execution of multiple runs using different input data. Program Title: QISG Suite CPC Library link to program files: https://doi.org/10.17632/g97sn2t8z2.1 Licensing provisions: MIT Programming language: CUDA-C Nature of problem: The critical properties of quantum disordered systems are known only in a few, simple, cases whereas there is a growing interest in gaining a better understanding of their behaviour due to the potential application of quantum annealing techniques for solving optimization problems. In this context, we provide a suite of codes, that we have recently developed, to the purpose of studying the 2D Quantum Ising Spin Glass. Solution method: We provide a highly tuned multi-GPU code for the Montecarlo simulation of the 2D QISG based on a combination of Metropolis and Parallel Tempering algorithms. Moreover, we provide a code for the evaluation of the eigenvalues of the transfer matrix of the 2D QISG for size up to L=6. The eigenvalues are computed by using the classic Lanczos algorithm that, however, relies on a custom multi-GPU-CPU matrix-vector product that speeds-up dramatically the execution of the algorithm.
