• Abstract summary: We investigate the relaxation critical dynamics near the Measurement-induced phase transition (MIPT) for different initial states in a one-dimensional quantum circuit. We find that the half-chain entanglement entropy $S$ decays as $Spropto t-1$ with the coefficients proportional to the size of the system in the short-time stage. In contrast, when the initial state is the product state, $S$ increases with time as $Spropto lnt$, consistent with previous studies.

• Abstract: Measurement-induced phase transition (MIPT) describes the nonanalytical change of the entanglement entropy resulting from the interplay between measurement and unitary evolution. In this paper, we investigate the relaxation critical dynamics near the MIPT for different initial states in a one-dimensional quantum circuit. Specifically, when the initial state is in the volume-law phase with vanishing measurement probability, we find that the half-chain entanglement entropy $S$ decays as $S\propto t^{-1}$ with the coefficients proportional to the size of the system in the short-time stage; In contrast, when the initial state is the product state, $S$ increases with time as $S\propto \ln{t}$, consistent with previous studies. Despite these contrasting behaviors, we develop a unified scaling form to describe these scaling behaviors for different initial states where the off-critical-point effects can also be incorporated. This framework offers significant advantages for experimental MIPT detection. Our novel scheme, leveraging relaxation dynamical scaling, drastically reduces post-selection overhead, and can eliminate it completely with trackable classical simulation.

  We generalize the Kibble-Zurek driven critical dynamics that has achieved great success in traditional quantum and classical phase transitions to MIPT. We find that the driven dynamics from the volume-law phase violates the adiabatic-impulse scenario of the KZ mechanism. We bring a new fundamental perspective into MIPT that can be detected in fast-developing quantum computers.

  We study the effect of weak measurements on the entanglement scaling in the ground state of the one-dimensional critical transverse-field Ising model. We derive the analytical expression of $c_texteff$ as a function of the measurement strength. Using numerical simulations, we show that for the EE averaged over all post-measurement states based on their Born-rule probabilities, the numerically extracted effective central charge appears to be independent of the measurement strength.

  The eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) offers a universal mechanism for the approach to equilibrium of closed quantum many-body systems. Here, we propose a theory-independent route to probe the full ETH in quantum simulators by observing the emergence of fluctuation-dissipation relations. Our work presents a theory-independent way to characterize thermalization in quantum simulators and paves the way to quantum simulate condensed matter pump-probe experiments.

This leads to further questions on the control and simulation of entangled quantum states by measurements in open quantum systems.
