Circuit-based characterization of finite-temperature quantum phases and self-correcting quantum memory
Ruochen Ma, Vedika Khemani, Shengqi Sang
Quantum phases at zero temperature can be characterized as equivalence classes under local unitary transformations: two ground states within a gapped phase can be transformed into…
Mixed-state phases from local reversibility
Shengqi Sang, Leonardo A. Lessa, Roger S. K. Mong +3
We propose a refined definition of mixed-state phase equivalence based on locally reversible channel circuits. We show that such circuits preserve topological degeneracy and the lo…
Higher-form anomaly and long-range entanglement of mixed states
Leonardo A. Lessa, Shengqi Sang, Tsung-Cheng Lu +2
In open quantum systems, we directly relate anomalies of higher-form symmetries to the long-range entanglement of any mixed state with such symmetries. First, we define equivalence…
