$\widetilde{O}(N^2)$ Representation of General Continuous Anti-symmetric Function
Abstract: In quantum mechanics, the wave function of fermion systems such as many-body electron systems are anti-symmetric (AS) and continuous, and it is crucial yet challenging to find an ansatz to represent them. This paper addresses this challenge by presenting an ${\widetilde O}(N2)$ ansatz based on permutation-equivariant functions. We prove that our ansatz can represent any AS continuous functions, and can accommodate the determinant-based structure proposed by Hutter [14], solving the proposed open problems that ${O}(N)$ Slater determinants are sufficient to provide universal representation of AS continuous functions. Together, we offer a generalizable and efficient approach to representing AS continuous functions, shedding light on designing neural networks to learn wave functions.
