Lecture Notes: Introduction to random unitary circuits and the measurement-induced entanglement phase transition
Brian Skinner
These are lecture notes compiled for a short lecture series at the 2023 Condensed Matter Summer School at the University of Minnesota. They are designed to be conversational and fu…
Exact solution for the filling-induced thermalization transition in a 1D fracton system
Calvin Pozderac, Steven Speck, Xiaozhou Feng +2
We study a random circuit model of constrained fracton dynamics, in which particles on a one-dimensional lattice undergo random local motion subject to both charge and dipole momen…
Measurement-induced phase transitions on dynamical quantum trees
Xiaozhou Feng, Brian Skinner, Adam Nahum
Monitored many-body systems fall broadly into two dynamical phases, ``entangling'' or ``disentangling'', separated by a transition as a function of the rate at which measurements a…
Measurement and entanglement phase transitions in all-to-all quantum circuits, on quantum trees, and in Landau-Ginsburg theory
Adam Nahum, Sthitadhi Roy, Brian Skinner +1
A quantum many-body system whose dynamics includes local measurements at a nonzero rate can be in distinct dynamical phases, with differing entanglement properties. We introduce th…
Entanglement and dynamics of diffusion-annihilation processes with Majorana defects
Adam Nahum, Brian Skinner
Coupling a many-body system to a thermal environment typically destroys the quantum coherence of its state, leading to an effective classical dynamics at the longest time scales. W…
Measurement-Induced Phase Transitions in the Dynamics of Entanglement
Brian Skinner, Jonathan Ruhman, Adam Nahum
We define dynamical universality classes for many-body systems whose unitary evolution is punctuated by projective measurements. In cases where such measurements occur randomly at…
