Stabilization of long-range order in low-dimensional nonequilibrium models
Oriana K. Diessel, Jaewon Kim, Ehud Altman
It is now well established that the Mermin-Wagner theorem can be circumvented in nonequilibrium systems, allowing for the spontaneous breaking of a continuous symmetry and the emer…
Computational Phase Transitions in Two-Dimensional Antiferromagnetic Melting
Zack Weinstein, Jalal Abu Ahmad, Daniel Podolsky +1
A computational phase transition in a classical or quantum system is a non-analytic change in behavior of an order parameter which can only be observed with the assistance of a non…
Nonlocality and entanglement in measured critical quantum Ising chains
Zack Weinstein, Rohith Sajith, Ehud Altman +1
We study the effects of measurements, performed with a finite density in space, on the ground state of the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model at criticality. Local degree…
Measurements conspire nonlocally to restructure critical quantum states
Samuel J. Garratt, Zack Weinstein, Ehud Altman
We study theoretically how local measurements perfomed on critical quantum ground states affect long-distance correlations. These states are highly entangled and feature algebraic…
Symmetry enriched phases of quantum circuits
Yimu Bao, Soonwon Choi, Ehud Altman
Quantum circuits consisting of random unitary gates and subject to local measurements have been shown to undergo a phase transition, tuned by the rate of measurement, from a state…
Theory of the phase transition in random unitary circuits with measurements
Yimu Bao, Soonwon Choi, Ehud Altman
We present a theory of the entanglement transition tuned by measurement strength in qudit chains evolved by random unitary circuits and subject to either weak or random projective…
