###### Abstract

The emergence of powerful deep generative models based on diffusion and flow matching has enabled the learning and modeling of complex distributions\. Learning quantum distributions, however, remains challenging due to the inherent difficulty of accurately modeling the meaningful physical properties of quantum states\. We propose Quantum Flow Matching \(QFM\), a novel generative model designed to learn quantum distribution by utilizing spin Wigner function and flow matching\. By converting density matrix into the spin Wigner function and leveraging functional flow matching to learn distributions in function space, QFM enables accurate and effective learning of multi\-qubit quantum distributions\. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method by evaluating physical quantities such as trace, purity, and entanglement entropy of the generated quantum states, accurately capturing the underlying physics of the given quantum distributions\.

## 1Introduction

Despite the unprecedented success of deep generative models, such as diffusion models\(Songet al\.,[2020](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib8); Hoet al\.,[2020](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib9)\)and flow matching\(Lipmanet al\.,[2022](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib5)\), learning the distributions of quantum states remains a challenging task\. Leveraging state\-of\-the\-art machine learning methods to model quantum states has been an interesting research direction\(Carrasquillaet al\.,[2019](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib19); Carleoet al\.,[2019](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib20)\)\. However, applying modern generative models directly to learn quantum distributions has not been successful for several reasons\. First, existing diffusion and flow matching methods are solely focused on learning representations of classical data such as images or classical PDEs\. These are inadequate for applications requiring consistency with important physical quantities such as purity, entanglement entropy, and quantum phases of matter\. Second, complex\-valued density matrices pose a significant challenge due to the sign structure problem, making previous methods unsuitable for handling them\(Westerhoutet al\.,[2020](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib10); Duganet al\.,[2023](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib1)\)\.

We bypass the direct learning of quantum states by converting them into spin Wigner function and learn the underlying distribution\. This approach allows us to effectively generate physically valid and accurate quantum states, which was not achievable by direct learning from density matrices\.To address this challenge, we propose Quantum Flow Matching \(QFM\), a novel generative modeling method that leverages flow matching to effectively learn the distributions of quantum states\. The procedure of QFM, summarized in Figure[1](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#S1.F1), can be illustrated in the following steps\. First, we convert quantum states into informationally complete functional representations using spin Wigner functions\. Second, we employ Functional Flow Matching \(FFM\) to learn the distribution of spin Wigner functions in function space\. This allows us to generate new spin Wigner functions that accurately reflect the underlying quantum distribution\. Finally, the new quantum states are reconstructed from these generated spin Wigner functions\.

Our contributions are summarized as follows:

- •We propose QFM, a pioneering generative model for quantum distributions that accurately capture the underlying physics of a given quantum system\.
- •We bypass the direct density matrix learning by using spin Wigner function\. FFM is utilized to leverage resolution\-invariant nature of functional models, enabling accurate reconstruction of quantum states from the learned spin Wigner functions\.
- •We demonstrate that our method effectively learns the underlying physics of given quantum systems by evaluating various physical quantities, such as trace, purity, and entanglement entropy\.

## 2Learning Quantum Distribution with Flow Matching

### 2\.1Quantum State to Spin Wigner Function

![Refer to caption](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301v1/x2.png)Figure 2:An Example of two\-qubit product statesρ1,ρ2\\rho\_\{1\},\\rho\_\{2\}\(top\) and two\-qubit maximally entangled statesσ1,σ2\\sigma\_\{1\},\\sigma\_\{2\}\(bottom\), in both density matrix \(left\) and spin Wigner function \(right\)\. For the spin Winger functions, parameterizations onθ1\\theta\_\{1\}andϕ1\\phi\_\{1\}are shown, withθ2\\theta\_\{2\}andϕ2\\phi\_\{2\}fixed atπ\\piandπ/2\\pi/2, respectively\. Random arbitrary single\-qubit rotation gatesU​\(α,β,γ\)=exp⁡\(−i​α​Z/2\)​exp⁡\(−i​β​Y/2\)​exp⁡\(−i​γ​Z/2\)U\(\\alpha,\\beta,\\gamma\)=\\exp\(\-i\\alpha Z/2\)\\exp\(\-i\\beta Y/2\)\\exp\(\-i\\gamma Z/2\)were applied to both qubits of\|00⟩\|00\\ranglefor the product states and to both qubits of\(\|00⟩\+\|11⟩\)/2\(\|00\\rangle\+\|11\\rangle\)/\\sqrt\{2\}for the maximally entangled states\. Unlike in the density matrix form, the product states and maximally entangled states are clearly distinguishable in the spin Wigner function representation\.Learning the distributions of quantum states using deep generative models requires effective classical representations of these quantum states\. Training the generative model using the state vector or density matrix representation alone is insufficient, as it does not ensure that important physical quantities are accurately captured\.

The Wigner function effectively addresses these shortcomings by mapping a quantum density matrix onto a quasi\-probability distribution in classical phase space\(Rundleet al\.,[2017](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib4); Wigner,[1932](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib2)\)\. However, since the Wigner function has been primarily explored in continuous variable and infinite\-dimensional Hilbert spaces, such as in quantum optics and chemistry, its application in machine learning is still limited in these settings\(Duganet al\.,[2023](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib1)\)\.

In this work, we utilize spin Wigner function, which fully describes quantum systems of arbitrary \(including finite\) dimensions\(Tilmaet al\.,[2016](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib3); Rundleet al\.,[2017](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib4)\)\. This approach enables the application of deep generative models to a range of intriguing tasks involving finite\-dimensional Hilbert spaces, such as generating the ground state of a quantum spin chain with specific quantum phases\.

For an arbitrary quantum stateρ\\rho, the spin Wigner function is given byW​\(𝛀\)=Tr​\[ρ​U​\(𝛀\)​Π​U†​\(𝛀\)\]W\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)=\\mathrm\{Tr\}\[\\rho U\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\Pi U^\{\\dagger\}\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\], whereU​\(𝛀\)U\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)andΠ\\Piare analogous to the displacement and parity operator in the original Wigner function, respectively\. With an appropriate choice of Hermitian observableΠ\\Pi, along with unitaryUUand parameterization𝛀\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}, the original density matrix can be fully reconstructed asρ=dim​\(ρ\)​∫𝛀W​\(𝛀\)​U​\(𝛀\)​Π​U†​\(𝛀\)​𝑑𝛀\\rho=\\mathrm\{dim\}\(\\rho\)\\int\_\{\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\}W\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)U\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\Pi U^\{\\dagger\}\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)d\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}, where dim\(ρ\\rho\) is the dimensionality ofρ\\rho\.

Here,d​𝛀d\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}should be chosen such thatU​\(𝛀\)U\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)follows a Haar random, or unitary 2\-design, distribution\. Specifically, unitary 2\-design, denoted by𝒰\\mathcal\{U\}, is a distribution of unitary matrices where the expectation value matches that of the Haar distribution up to the second moment\. Then, the integral term of the reconstruction is given by

∫𝛀W​\(𝛀\)​Δ​\(𝛀\)​𝑑𝛀=𝔼𝒰​TrA​\[\(ρ⊗IB\)​U⊗2​Π⊗2​U†⁣⊗2\]\\displaystyle\\int\_\{\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\}W\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\Delta\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)d\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}=\\mathbb\{E\}\_\{\\mathcal\{U\}\}\\mathrm\{Tr\}\_\{A\}\[\(\\rho\\otimes I\_\{B\}\)U^\{\\otimes 2\}\\Pi^\{\\otimes 2\}U^\{\\dagger\\otimes 2\}\]=TrA​\[\(ρ⊗IB\)​\(cΠ,I​I\+cΠ,F​F\)\]=cΠ,I​IB\+cΠ,F​ρ,\\displaystyle=\\mathrm\{Tr\}\_\{A\}\[\(\\rho\\otimes I\_\{B\}\)\(c\_\{\\Pi,I\}I\+c\_\{\\Pi,F\}F\)\]=c\_\{\\Pi,I\}I\_\{B\}\+c\_\{\\Pi,F\}\\rho,whereΔ​\(𝛀\)≡U​\(𝛀\)​Π​U†​\(𝛀\)\\Delta\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\equiv U\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\Pi U^\{\\dagger\}\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\), and expectation over𝒰\\mathcal\{U\}is taken with respect to the Haar distribution\.IIandFFdenote identity and swap operator on the composite system, respectively, and the constants are calculated ascΠ,I=0c\_\{\\Pi,I\}=0andcΠ,F=1/dim​\(ρ\)c\_\{\\Pi,F\}=1/\\mathrm\{dim\}\(\\rho\)\(Mele,[2024](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib11)\)\. Therefore, we can fully reconstruct the original density matrixρ\\rho\.

To generalize this toNNqubits, there is flexibility in the choice ofU​\(𝛀\)U\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)andΠ\\Pi\. Throughout our work, we adhere to the conventions ofRundleet al\.\([2017](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib4)\), whereΠN\\Pi\_\{N\}is2N×2N2^\{N\}\\times 2^\{N\}diagonal matrix with2−N​\[1\+\(2N−1\)​2N\+1\]2^\{\-N\}\[1\+\(2^\{N\}\-1\)\\sqrt\{2^\{N\}\+1\}\]as the first element and2−N​\[1−2N\+1\]2^\{\-N\}\[1\-\\sqrt\{2^\{N\}\+1\}\]as the remaining elements\. This choice aligns with the previous calculations ofcΠ,Ic\_\{\\Pi,I\}andcΠ,Fc\_\{\\Pi,F\}\. The unitary operator and parameterization are generalized toUN​\(𝛀\)=⨂j=1Nei​θj​Zj​ei​ϕj​YjU\_\{N\}\(\\boldsymbol\{\\Omega\}\)=\\bigotimes\_\{j=1\}^\{N\}e^\{i\\theta\_\{j\}Z\_\{j\}\}e^\{i\\phi\_\{j\}Y\_\{j\}\}, where𝛀≡\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\\equiv\(θ→,ϕ→\)\(\\vec\{\\theta\},\\vec\{\\phi\}\)andZj​\(Yj\)Z\_\{j\}\(Y\_\{j\}\)denotes the PauliZ​\(Y\)Z\(Y\)operator onjj\-th qubit\.

Specifically, we reconstructNN\-qubit density matrixρ\\rhofrom spin Wigner Function by the following approximation:

ρ\\displaystyle\\rho=dim​\(ρ\)​𝔼𝒰​\[W​\(𝛀\)​Δ​\(𝛀\)\]\\displaystyle=\\mathrm\{dim\}\(\\rho\)\\mathbb\{E\}\_\{\\mathcal\{U\}\}\\left\[W\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\Delta\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\right\]=dim​\(ρ\)​∫⨂NS2W​\(𝛀\)​Δ​\(𝛀\)​∏i=1Nsin⁡ϕi​d​θ1​d​ϕ1​⋯​d​θN​d​ϕN\\displaystyle=\\mathrm\{dim\}\(\\rho\)\\int\_\{\\bigotimes^\{N\}\{S^\{2\}\}\}W\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\Delta\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\prod\_\{i=1\}^\{N\}\{\\sin\{\\phi\_\{i\}\}\}d\\theta\_\{1\}d\\phi\_\{1\}\\cdots d\\theta\_\{N\}d\\phi\_\{N\}≃πN⋅𝔼θi∼U​\[0,2​π\]ϕi∼U​\[0,π\]\[W​\(𝛀\)​Δ​\(𝛀\)​∏i=1Nsin⁡ϕi\]\.\\displaystyle\\simeq\\pi^\{N\}\\cdot\\mathop\{\\mathbb\{E\}\}\_\{\\begin\{subarray\}\{c\}\\theta\_\{i\}\\sim U\[0,2\\pi\]\\\\ \\phi\_\{i\}\\sim U\[0,\\pi\]\\end\{subarray\}\}\\left\[W\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\Delta\(\\mathbf\{\\Omega\}\)\\prod\_\{i=1\}^\{N\}\{\\sin\{\\phi\_\{i\}\}\}\\right\]\.
Using this approach, we can construct an informationally complete representation ofNN\-qubit density matrices with functions of2​N2Nparameters\. Figure[2](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#S2.F2)demonstrates the two\-qubit product states and maximally entangled states in the spin Wigner representation\.

### 2\.2Functional Flow Matching

Flow Matching \(FM\) is a continuous normalizing flow that models the integration of vector fieldutu\_\{t\}, or the flowϕt\\phi\_\{t\}, by learning the vector field of the prescribed dynamics\. This can be described with the ordinary differential equationdd​t​ϕt​\(Wt\)=ut​\(ϕt​\(Wt\)\)\\frac\{d\}\{dt\}\\phi\_\{t\}\(W\_\{t\}\)=u\_\{t\}\(\\phi\_\{t\}\(W\_\{t\}\)\), whereWtW\_\{t\}is the spin Wigner function at timet∈\[0,1\]t\\in\[0,1\]\.Lipmanet al\.\([2022](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib5)\)proposed conditional flow matching objective \(CFM\), that learns the marginal vector fieldut​\(Wt\)u\_\{t\}\(W\_\{t\}\)which corresponds to the target probability density pathpt​\(Wt\)p\_\{t\}\(W\_\{t\}\), known to be more stable and robust compared to diffusion models\(Hoet al\.,[2020](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib9); Songet al\.,[2020](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib8)\)\. The CFM objective is given by

ℒCFM=𝔼t∼U​\(0,1\),Wt∼pt​\(Wt\)∥vt\(Wt\)−ut\(Wt\|W1\)∥2,\\displaystyle\\mathcal\{L\}\_\{\\text\{CFM\}\}=\\mathbb\{E\}\_\{t\\sim U\(0,1\),W\_\{t\}\\sim p\_\{t\}\(W\_\{t\}\)\}\{\\\|v\_\{t\}\(W\_\{t\}\)\-u\_\{t\}\(W\_\{t\}\|W\_\{1\}\)\\\|^\{2\}\},wherevt​\(W\)v\_\{t\}\(W\)is a trainable neural network\.

To learn the distribution of spin Wigner function, we utilize Functional Flow Matching, which is a functional version of FM\(Kerriganet al\.,[2023](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib6)\), generalized to the function space, implemented with Fourier Neural Operator\(Liet al\.,[2020](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib7)\)\. It features a resolution\-invariant property of functional models, and we leverage it when reconstructing the generated spin Wigner functions back into the quantum states\.

## 3Experiments

Single Qubit: Trace, Purity\.We first demonstrate the generation of single\-qubit density matrices using QFM\. Our objective is to generate quantum states with a specified purityα=Tr​\[ρ2\]\\alpha=\\mathrm\{Tr\}\[\\rho^\{2\}\], whereρ\\rhodenotes density matrix of the quantum state\. Moreover, we also examine the trace of the generated data to ensure it satisfies the unit trace constraint\.

We conduct experiments with a synthetic dataset consisting of 7000 pure states \(α=1\\alpha=1\) and mixed states \(α∈\{0\.625,0\.905\}\\alpha\\in\\\{0\.625,0\.905\\\}\)\. Single\-qubit quantum states can be expressed as\(I\+𝐧⋅𝝈\)/2\(I\+\\mathbf\{n\}\\cdot\\boldsymbol\{\\sigma\}\)/2, where𝐧\\mathbf\{n\}and𝝈\\boldsymbol\{\\sigma\}are Bloch and Pauli vectors, respectively\. Datasets of purityα\\alphaare prepared by sampling𝐧\\mathbf\{n\}from uniform distribution with the constraint‖𝐧‖2=2​α−1\\\|\\mathbf\{n\}\\\|\_\{2\}=\\sqrt\{2\\alpha\-1\}\.

Table 1:Quantitative comparisons of QFM and direct learning of FM on a single qubit\.α\\alpha,Tr​\[ρ\]\\mathrm\{Tr\}\[\\rho\]andTr​\[ρ2\]\\mathrm\{Tr\}\[\\rho^\{2\}\]represent the purity of training dataset, average values of the trace, and the purity over the generated quantum states, respectively\.Table 2:Quantitative comparisons of QFM and direct learning of FM on multi qubits\.SS,Tr​\[ρ\]\\mathrm\{Tr\}\[\\rho\]andS​\(ρA\)S\(\\rho\_\{A\}\)represent the entanglement entropy of training dataset, the average values of the trace, and the entanglement entropy over the generated quantum states, respectively\.Multi qubits: Trace, Entanglement Entropy\.We further demonstrate the capability of QFM in a multi\-qubit setting\. Specifically, we focus on generating 2\-qubit quantum states with a desired entanglement entropyS=−Tr​\[ρA​log​ρA\]S=\-\\mathrm\{Tr\}\[\\rho\_\{A\}\\mathrm\{log\}\\rho\_\{A\}\], whereρA\\rho\_\{A\}is the reduced density matrix\. We prepare a synthetic dataset consisting of 900 quantums states with fixed entanglement entropyS=0\.7S=0\.7\. This is done by initializing two\-qubit quantum states with an entanglement entropy of 0\.7 and applying random arbitrary single\-qubit rotations\.

Tables[1](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#S3.T1)and[2](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#S3.T2)present a comparative analysis between QFM and direct learning of FM using density matrices\. QFM effectively captures the physical quantities of the dataset compared to direct learning of FM\. This is demonstrated by its better performance in the target purity values \(Table[1](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#S3.T1)\) and entanglement entropy \(Table[2](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#S3.T2)\)\.

## 4Future Work

One potential future direction is extending the method to larger multi\-qubits system such as generating genuinely multipartite entangled states\(Goyeneche and Życzkowski,[2014](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib12)\)and the ground states of generalized cluster Hamiltonian with specific quantum phases\(Caroet al\.,[2022](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib14); Gil\-Fusteret al\.,[2024](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib15)\)\. Another interesting direction is quantum error mitigation by leveraging generative model as denoiser and formulating as solving an inverse problem\(Kawaret al\.,[2022](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib17); Chunget al\.,[2022](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib16); Shim and Kim,[2024](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib18)\)\. Lastly, by simultaneously utilizing Quantum Autoencoders\(Romeroet al\.,[2017](https://arxiv.org/html/2607.00301#bib.bib13)\), our method potentially enables the accurate generation of high\-dimensional quantum states, which have been intractable due to heavy computational costs\.
