2 Motivation Recent advances in algorithms used by RBC/UKQCD have driven down the cost of simulating degenerate light quark pairs: 1 Extensive tuning of forces via Hasenbusch mass splitting [Phys. Lett. B ] 2 Shamir DWF Möbius DWF zmöbius DWF [Izubuchi et al., Lattice 2015] 3 Reduced L s approximation during molecular dynamics [proposed by Brower et al., arxiv: ; implemented by G. McGlynn, Lattice 2015] 4 Mixed precision CG: single precision inner solves, double precision defect correction RHMC strange and charm quark determinants are now the most expensive part of our evolution strategy Gauge 5800 s 11.6% Light quarks (L s = 14) s 36.1% L s = 14/L s = 32 correction det s 3.3% Strange and charm quarks (L s = 32) s 48.5% DED 170 s 0.3% Total s Table: Timings for one HMC trajectory of N f = physical mass a 1 3 GeV ensemble on a 12,288-node BG/Q partition [G. McGlynn, Ph.D. thesis] D. Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

3 Motivation (cont d.) These techniques are of limited use for RHMC: Unclear how to restart inner single-precision solver in the context of multishift CG Cost of multishift D D inversions at light quark masses largely negates potential gain from Hasenbusch splitting For I = 0 K ππ calculations with G-parity boundary conditions D D describes 4 flavors, and RHMC is needed for light quarks as well [C. Kelly, 15:50] Goal: Explore the exact one-flavor algorithm as an alternative to RHMC for simulating single quark flavors or degenerate G-parity quark pairs D. Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

4 The Exact One-Flavor Algorithm Introduced by TWQCD for efficient one-flavor simulations on GPU clusters History: 2009: Introduction [TWQCD, arxiv: ] 2014: Detailed derivation [Chen and Chiu, Phys. Lett. B ] 2014: Demonstration of 20% overall speed-up in N f = simulation with EOFA vs. RHMC for heavy quark [Chen and Chiu, arxiv: ] Main idea: Use block manipulations in spin space to write [ ] D(m1) 1 det = D(m 2) det (M 1 L) det (M R) with M L and M R Hermitian and positive-definite Contrast with RHMC, where we instead compute [ ] { [ D(m1) D D(m 1) det = det D(m 2) D D(m 2) using a rational approximation to the square root ]} 1/2 Exact in the sense that one does not need to take a fractional power of the fermion determinant to remove unwanted flavors D. Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

5 Derivation Sketch I [Chen and Chiu, Phys. Lett. B ] We begin by factoring the DWF Dirac operator: D w: Wilson Dirac operator c,d: Möbius parameters L ss : 5D hopping term (D DWF ) xx,ss = ( (c + d) D w + 1 ) xx δ ss + ( (c d) D w 1 ) xx L ss { ( = (D w) xx δ ss + δ ) } { xx d + c (1 + L) (1 L) 1 1 ss }{{ } d (1 L) + c (1 } + L) D EOFA (D w) xx δ ss + δ xx (P +M + + P M ) ss M ± does not involve the gauge field and can be worked out explicitly Shamir kernel: (c, d) = (1/2, 1/2) D DWF and D EOFA are the same operator Möbius kernel: (c, d) = (α/2, 1/2) D EOFA is dense but has a somewhat better condition number than D DWF H γ 5R 5D EOFA is Hermitian, but not positive-definite D. Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

6 Derivation Sketch II [Chen and Chiu, Phys. Lett. B ] Consider a slight generalization of D EOFA, in the chiral representation of γ µ : ( ) W M 5 + M +(m 1) (σ t) D(m 1, m 2) = (σ t) W M 5 + M (m 2) Applying the Schur det. identity to D EOFA (m) = D(m, m), and taking a ratio: det (D EOFA (m 1)) det (W M5 + M+(m1)) det (H (m1)) = Schur complements det (D EOFA (m 2)) det (W M 5 + M (m 2)) det (H +(m 2)) Defining ± R 5 (M ±(m 2) M ±(m 1)) = kω ±Ω ± ( m2 m1), also have: det ( D(m1, m ) 2) det ( det (W M5 + M+(m1)) det (H+(m2) +) ) = 1 = = D(m1, m 2) det (W M 5 + M (m 2)) det (H (m 1) + ) Finally, using Sylvester s determinant identity (det(1 + AB) = det(1 + BA)): [ ( )] 1 [ ( det (D EOFA(m 1)) det (D = det 1 + kω 1 EOFA(m 2)) H (m 1) Ω det 1 + kω 1 + Ω + H +(m 2) +P + }{{}}{{} M L Hermitian and pos.-def.! M R )] 1 D. Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

7 Derivation Sketch III [Chen and Chiu, Phys. Lett. B ] To simulate, we express the determinant as a path integral: 1 det (M 1 L) det (M = Dφ LDφ L R) DφRDφ R e φ L M Lφ L φ R M Rφ R φ L and φ R are bosonic pseudofermion fields with two spin components M L and M R contain nested matrix inverses expensive to compute with CG Easier to work with block form: M EOFA = 1 kp Ω 1 H(m 1 ) Ω P + kp + Ω 1 + Ω + P + H(m 2 ) + P + for which we have, in terms of an ordinary four-component spinor: det (D EOFA (m 1)) det (D EOFA (m = DφDφ e φ M EOFA φ 2)) EOFA evolution requires inversions of the general form ( H(m) + α ±P ± ) ψ = φ D. Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

8 The Hybrid Monte Carlo Algorithm We perform dynamical QCD simulations using the HMC algorithm Idea: Generate a Markov chain of gauge field configurations by evolving a Hamiltonian system in (unphysical) molecular dynamics time Generalized coordinate: Gauge field (U x,µ) Conjugate momentum: π x,µ su(3) Hamiltonian: H = 1 2 π2 + S g[u] + S f [U] Equations of motion: { τ U x,µ = π x,µu x,µ ( ) τ π x,µ = T a x,µ a Sg[U] + S f [U] Metropolis accept/reject step corrects for finite precision integration Accept new gauge field U x,µ with probability Paccept = min ( 1, e H) Implementing this for EOFA requires: 1 Action S f [U] 2 Pseudofermion heatbath 3 Pseudofermion contribution to momentum update π x,µ π x,µ T a ( a x,µs f [U] ) τ Tests performed on two N f = Shamir DWF ensembles: 16I: , β = 2.13, (am l, am h ) = (0.01, 0.032) [Phys. Rev. D76, ] 32I: , β = 2.25, (am l, am h ) = (0.004, 0.03) [Phys. Rev. D93, ] D. Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

9 I. Action: Equivalence of EOFA and RHMC for Möbius DWF Relation between RHMC determinant ratios and EOFA determinant ratios: { [ ]} D 1/2 ( D DWF (m 1) (c + d) L s ) + m 1 (c d) Ls 12L 3 T [ ] DEOFA (m 1) det = det D D DWF (m 2) (c + d) Ls + m 2 (c d) Ls D EOFA (m 2) ] [ D(mq) D(mq+ mq) det Exact RHMC EOFA m q log(rw) RHMC EOFA N rw (a) Free 4 5 lattice, m q = 0.01, α = 4.0 (Möbius scale), 20 stochastic hits. (b) 16I. Reweight am h = in N rw steps with 10 hits per step. Observe significantly smaller systematic and statistical errors for EOFA Cheaper to perform quark mass reweighting with EOFA! D.

Heatbath At start of HMC trajectory: draw η with P (η) e η2 /2, compute φ = M 1/2 EOFA η Still requires rational approximation x 1/2 α 0 + N p α l=1 l/(β l + x) Defining γ l = (1 + β l ) 1, can show Np ] M 1/2 EOFA α01 + α lγ l [1 + kγ lp Ω 1 Ω P kγ lp +Ω 1 + Ω +P + H(m 1) γ l P H(m 2) γ lβ l +P + l=1 ±P ± has large number of zero modes not invertible!

Momentum Update EOFA pseudofermion force is { a x,µs f [U] = kχ L γ5r5 ( a x,µ D w ) χl kχ R γ5r5 ( a x,µ D w ) χr χ L = [H(m 1)] 1 Ω P φ, χ R = [H(m 2) +P +] 1 Ω +P +φ Compared to RHMC: Cheaper to evaluate Somewhat smaller total force, with F L F R Percentage EOFA RHMC F EOFA = F RHMC = Percentage EOFA (L) EOFA (R) F L = F R = F Figure: Lattice-wide distribution of EOFA and RHMC total forces by link F Figure: Lattice-wide distribution of EOFA force contributions from L and R terms by link D.

Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

14 Optimizations II: Accelerating EOFA Heatbath Following TWQCD, we use the chronological inversion method introduced by Brower et al. to forecast CG guesses [Nucl. Phys. B484, ] Forecast solution to (H + α l ±P ±) ψ = φ by minimizing Ψ[x] = x (H + α l ±P ±) x φ x x φ over the space of accumulated solutions for previous shifts α l CG Iterations L Zero Last Solution Forecasted R Pole Test: 16I, 10 poles in rational approximation Find 30% reduction in total iteration count No additional gain from sharing solutions between L and R terms D. Murphy (Lattice 2016) EOFA Domain Wall Fermion Simulations July 27th, / 17

15 Conclusions and Next Steps We have: Independently implemented TWQCD s EOFA, and performed basic algorithmic tests Reproduced 16I ensemble using EOFA to evolve the heavy flavor Partially implemented and tested a number of optimizations: 1 Even-odd preconditioning 2 Optimized BG/Q assembly for sparse matrix applications (BAGEL) 3 Mixed-precision CG 4 Forecasted CG guesses for heatbath 5 Hasenbusch mass splitting Next steps: Better ideas to ameliorate the cost of the EOFA heatbath? Tuning Sexton-Weingarten integration and/or Hasenbusch mass splitting? G-parity simulations with EOFA light quarks Port to P. Boyle s Grid library: is a further speed-up possible if we perform deflated sparse matrix inversions with HDCR? [Poster by A. Yamaguchi and P. Boyle] We expect a gain over RHMC with a fully optimized and tuned implementation of EOFA, but the exact gain is difficult to predict! Thank you! D.
