• Abstract: We consider the dynamics of local entropy and nearest neighbor mutual information of a 1-D lattice of qubits via the repeated application of nearest neighbor CNOT quantum gates. This is a quantum version of a cellular automaton. We analyze the entropy dynamics for different initial product states, both for open boundary conditions, periodic boundary conditions and we also consider the infinite lattice thermodynamic limit. The dynamics gives rise to fractal behavior, where we see the appearance of the Sierpinski triangle both for states in the computational basis and for operator dynamics in the Heisenberg picture. In the thermodynamics limit, we see equilibration with a time dependence controlled by $\exp(-\alpha t^{h-1})$ where $h$ is the fractal dimension of the Sierpinski triangle, and $\alpha$ depends on the details of the initial state. We also see log-periodic reductions in the one qubit entropy where the approach to equilibrium is only power law. For open boundary conditions we see time periodic oscillations near the boundary, associated to subalgebras of operators localized near the boundary that are mapped to themselves by the dynamics.

  We consider a quantum fully packed loop model on the square lattice with a frustration-free projector Hamiltonian and ring-exchange interactions acting on plaquettes. We discuss how the boundary term fractures the Hilbert space into Krylov subspaces, and we prove that the Hamiltonian is ergodic within each subspace. We show that the spectrum is shown to be gapless in the thermodynamic limit with a trial state constructed by adding a twist to the ground state superposition.

• Fractal, logarithmic and volume-law entangled non-thermal steady states via spacetime duality [0.0]
  We show how a duality transformation between space and time on one hand, and unitarity and non-unitarity on the other, can be used to realize steady state phases of non-unitary dynamics. In spacetime-duals of chaotic unitary circuits, this mapping allows us to uncover a non-thermal volume-law entangled phase. We also find novel steady state phases with emphfractal entanglement scaling.
