| Summary: | We investigate the challenge of classical simulation of unitary quantum dynamics with variational Monte Carlo approaches, addressing the instabilities and high computational demands of existing methods. By systematically analyzing the convergence of stochastic infidelity optimizations, examining the variance properties of key stochastic estimators, and evaluating the error scaling of multiple dynamical discretization schemes, we provide a thorough formalization and significant improvements to the projected time-dependent Variational Monte Carlo (p-tVMC) method. We benchmark our approach on a two-dimensional Ising quench, achieving state-of-the-art performance. This work establishes p-tVMC as a powerful framework for simulating the dynamics of large-scale two-dimensional quantum systems, surpassing alternative VMC strategies on the investigated benchmark problems. |
