• Abstract: Entanglement measures have emerged as one of the versatile probes to diagnose quantum phases and their transitions. Universal features in them expand their applicability to a range of systems, including those with quenched disorder. In this work, we show that when the underlying lattice has percolation disorder, free fermions at a finite density show interesting entanglement properties due to massively degenerate ground states. We define and calculate appropriate entanglement measures such as typical, annealed, and quenched entanglement entropy in both one and two dimensions, showing they can capture both geometrical aspects and electronic correlations of the percolated quantum system. In particular, while typical and annealed entanglement show volume law character directly dependent on the number of zero modes in the system, quenched entanglement is generally area law albeit showing characteristic signatures of the classical percolation transition. Our work presents an exotic interplay between the geometrical properties of a lattice and quantum entanglement in a many-body quantum system.

• Area laws from classical entropies [0.0]
  The area law-like scaling of local quantum entropies is the central characteristic of the entanglement inherent in quantum fields, many-body systems, and spacetime. We show that it equally manifests in classical entropies over measurement distributions when vacuum contributions dictated by the uncertainty principle are subtracted.

• Probing critical phenomena in open quantum systems using atom arrays [3.365378662696971]
  At quantum critical points, correlations decay as a power law, with exponents determined by a set of universal scaling dimensions. Here, we employ a Rydberg quantum simulator to adiabatically prepare critical ground states of both a one-dimensional ring and a two-dimensional square lattice. By accounting for and tuning the openness of our quantum system, we are able to directly observe power-law correlations and extract the corresponding scaling dimensions.

  Quantum Hall systems are characterized by the quantization of the Hall conductance -- a bulk property rooted in the topological structure of the underlying quantum states. Here, we realize a quantum Hall system using ultracold dysprosium atoms, in a two-dimensional geometry formed by one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that the large number of magnetic sublevels leads to distinct bulk and edge behaviors.
