contents Machine-learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) have made a significant contribution to the recent progress in the fields of computational materials and chemistry due to the MLIPs' ability of accurately approximating energy landscapes of quantum-mechanical models while being orders of magnitude more computationally efficient. However, the computational cost and number of parameters of many state-of-the-art MLIPs increases exponentially with the number of atomic features. Tensor (non-neural) networks, based on low-rank representations of high-dimensional tensors, have been a way to reduce the number of parameters in approximating multidimensional functions, however, it is often not easy to encode the model symmetries into them. In this work we develop a formalism for rank-efficient equivariant tensor networks (ETNs), i.e. tensor networks that remain invariant under actions of SO(3) upon contraction. All the key algorithms of tensor networks like orthogonalization of cores and DMRG-based algorithms carry over to our equivariant case. Moreover, we show that many elements of modern neural network architectures like message passing, pulling, or attention mechanisms, can in some form be implemented into the ETNs. Based on ETNs, we develop a new class of polynomial-based MLIPs that demonstrate superior performance over existing MLIPs for multicomponent systems.
