Machine learning topological phases in real space

We develop a supervised machine learning algorithm that is able to learn topological phases of finite condensed matter systems from bulk data in real lattice space. The algorithm employs diagonalization in real space together with any supervised learning algorithm to learn topological phases through an eigenvector ensembling procedure. We combine our algorithm with decision trees and random forests to successfully recover topological phase diagrams of Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) models from bulk lattice data in real space and show how the Shannon information entropy of ensembles of lattice eigenvectors can be used to retrieve a signal detailing how topological information is distributed in the bulk. We further use insights obtained from these information entropy signatures to engineer global topological features from real space lattice data that still carry most of the topological information in the lattice, while greatly diminishing the size of feature space, thus effectively amounting to a topological lattice compression. Finally, we explore the theoretical possibility of interpreting the information entropy topological signatures in terms of emergent information entropy wave functions, which lead us to Heisenberg and Hirschman uncertainty relations for topological phase transitions. The discovery of Shannon information entropy signals associated with topological phase transitions from the analysis of data from several thousand SSH systems illustrates how model explainability in machine learning can advance the research of exotic quantum materials with properties that may power future technological applications such as qubit engineering for quantum computing.
