Quantum resource localizability transitions in deep thermalization

Xiaozhou Feng, Chang Liu, Zihan Cheng +2

We investigate how quantum resource constraints affect deep thermalization, the emergence of universal local wavefunction distributions from partial measurements of a quantum many-…

Pseudoentanglement from tensor networks

Zihan Cheng, Xiaozhou Feng, Matteo Ippoliti

Pseudoentangled states are defined by their ability to hide their entanglement structure: they are indistinguishable from random states to any observer with polynomial resources, y…

Hardness of observing strong-to-weak symmetry breaking

Xiaozhou Feng, Zihan Cheng, Matteo Ippoliti

Spontaneous symmetry breaking (SSB) is the cornerstone of our understanding of quantum phases of matter. Recent works have generalized this concept to the domain of mixed states in…

Charge and Spin Sharpening Transitions on Dynamical Quantum Trees

Xiaozhou Feng, Nadezhda Fishchenko, Sarang Gopalakrishnan +1

The dynamics of monitored systems can exhibit a measurement-induced phase transition (MIPT) between entangling and disentangling phases, tuned by the measurement rate. When the dyn…

Dynamics of Pseudoentanglement

Xiaozhou Feng, Matteo Ippoliti

The dynamics of quantum entanglement plays a central role in explaining the emergence of thermal equilibrium in isolated many-body systems. However, entanglement is notoriously har…

Postselection-free experimental observation of the measurement-induced phase transition in circuits with universal gates

Xiaozhou Feng, Jeremy Côté, Stefanos Kourtis +1

Monitored many-body systems can exhibit a phase transition between entangling and disentangling dynamical phases by tuning the strength of measurements made on the system as it evo…
