• Abstract: In this paper we study localized states in a monitored evolution on a finite graph and how they are distinguished from the delocalized states in terms of the transition probabilities and the mean transition times. Monitoring is performed by repeated projective measurements with respect to a single quantum state. Our constructive approach is based on a mapping from a set of energy levels and an eigenvector basis onto the monitored evolution matrix. The eigenvalues of the latter are distributed over the complex unit disk and the corresponding transition probabilities decay quickly in the quantum Zeno regime at frequent measurements. A localized basis favors the return to the initial state, while a delocalized basis favors transitions between different states. This provides a practical criterion to identify localized states by measuring the mean transition time.

  We show that slight adjustments to the rewriting rule can induce a transition from a localized to an extended quantum phase. This approach holds promise for numerical investigations and could be implemented in building optical realizations of complex networks.

  We study quantum circuits consisting of unitary gates, projective measurements, and control operations that steer the system towards a pure absorbing state. Two types of phase transition occur as the rate of these control operations is increased: a measurement-induced entanglement transition, and a directed percolation transition into the absorbing state.

• Exploring postselection-induced quantum phenomena with time-bidirectional state formalism [0.8702432681310401]
  A quantum particle's state, called a time-bidirectional state, is equivalent to a joined state of two particles propagating in opposite time directions. We show how the obtained expressions reduce to known ones in the special cases of no postselection and generalized two-state (density) vectors. We employ the developed techniques for tracking of a qubit's time-reversal journey in a quantum teleportation protocol realized with a cloud-accessible noisy superconducting quantum processor.

  We make measurement-induced phase transitions observable using pre-selection scheme. The steering can be chosen so gently that the basic properties of the underlying transition, such as entanglement structure and critical exponents, are not modified. This insight further enables a quantum simulation strategy, determining the underlying class in state-of-the-art quantum platforms without measurement readout.

  We study the state transfer through quantum walks placed on a bounded one-dimensional path. We find such a state when superposing centered on the starting and antipodal positions preserves a high fidelity for a long time. We also explore discrete-time quantum walks to evaluate the qubit fidelity throughout the walk.

  In the quantum Zeno effect, quantum measurements can block the coherent oscillation of a two level system by freezing its state to one of the measurement eigenstates. We show that the onset of the Zeno regime is marked by a $textitcascade of transitions$ in the system dynamics as the measurement strength is increased.
