Abstract: 
A crucial step for understanding emergent physics of correlated systems is determining whether a particular model is emergent from ultraviolet physics. So far, a systematic way of detecting emergent behavior from ab initio calculations has yet to be available in the state-of-the-art model derivation procedures. In this study, we propose that low-energy emergent physics forms disjoint clusters in an extended descriptor space beyond just energy cutoffs. Working from highly-accurate many-body quantum Monte Carlo calculations of the ab initio hydrogen chains, we show that a cluster-based classification algorithm can detect a Heisenberg-like emergent subspace using a set of descriptors of the energy eigenstates.
