Optimality of Lindblad unfolding in measurement phase transitions
arXiv:2111.11391 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevB.107.L140301
Abstract
Entanglement phase transitions in hybrid quantum circuits describe individual quantum trajectories rather than the measurement-averaged ensemble, despite the fact that results of measurements are not conventionally used for feedback. Here, we numerically demonstrate that a class of generalized measurements with identical measurement-averaged dynamics give different phases and phase transitions. We show that measurement-averaged destruction of Bell state entanglement is a useful proxy for determining which hybrid circuit yields the lowest-entanglement dynamics. We use this to argue that no unfolding of our model can avoid a volume law phase, which has implications for simulation of open quantum systems.
