Free fermions under adaptive quantum dynamics

Vikram Ravindranath, Zhi-Cheng Yang, Xiao Chen

We study free fermion systems under adaptive quantum dynamics consisting of unitary gates and projective measurements followed by corrective unitary operations. We further introduc…

Entanglement dynamics in U(1) symmetric hybrid quantum automaton circuits

Yiqiu Han, Xiao Chen

We study the entanglement dynamics of quantum automaton (QA) circuits in the presence of U(1) symmetry. We find that the second Rényi entropy grows diffusively with a logarithmic c…

Robust Oscillations and Edge Modes in Nonunitary Floquet Systems

Vikram Ravindranath, Xiao Chen

We explore oscillatory behaviour in a family of periodically driven spin chains which are subject to a weak measurement followed by post-selection. We discover a transition to an o…

Measurement induced entanglement transition in two dimensional shallow circuit

Hanchen Liu, Tianci Zhou, Xiao Chen

We prepare two dimensional states generated by shallow circuits composed of (1) one layer of two-qubit CZ gate or (2) a few layers of two-qubit random Clifford gate. After measurin…

Quantum error as an emergent magnetic field

Shao-Kai Jian, Chunxiao Liu, Xiao Chen +2

We investigate the effect of quantum errors on a monitored Brownian Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model featuring a measurement-induced phase transition that can be understood as a symme…

Non-unitary Entanglement Dynamics in Continuous Variable Systems

Tianci Zhou, Xiao Chen

We construct a random unitary Gaussian circuit for continuous-variable (CV) systems subject to Gaussian measurements. We show that when the measurement rate is nonzero, the steady…

Many-body quantum dynamics slows down at low density

Xiao Chen, Yingfei Gu, Andrew Lucas

We study quantum many-body systems with a global U(1) conservation law, focusing on a theory of interacting fermions with charge conservation, or interacting spins with one…

Emergent conformal symmetry in non-unitary random dynamics of free fermions

Xiao Chen, Yaodong Li, Matthew P. A. Fisher +1

We present random quantum circuit models for non-unitary quantum dynamics of free fermions in one spatial dimension. Numerical simulations reveal that the dynamics tends towards st…

Conformal invariance and quantum non-locality in critical hybrid circuits

Yaodong Li, Xiao Chen, Andreas W. W. Ludwig +1

We establish the emergence of a conformal field theory (CFT) in a (1+1)-dimensional hybrid quantum circuit right at the measurement-driven entanglement transition by revealing spac…
