- Abstract: We analyze the distribution of multipartite entanglement in states produced in a one-dimensional random monitored quantum circuit where local Clifford unitaries are interspersed with single-site measurements performed with a probability $p$. This circuit has a measurement-induced phase transition at $p=p_c$, separating a phase in which the entanglement entropy scales with the system size (a volume law state) and one in which it scales with the boundary (an area law state). We calculate the entanglement depth, corresponding to the size of the largest cluster of entangled qubits, finding that it scales as a power law with system size in both the phases. The power law exponent is 1 in the volume law phase ($p < p_c$) and continuously decreases to 0 as $p \to 1$ in the area law phase. We explain this behavior by studying the spatial distribution of entangled clusters. We find that the largest cluster of entangled qubits in these states has a fractal dimension between 0 and 1 and appears to be self-similar. Away from the critical point, this fractal dimension matches the entanglement depth power law exponent.

We present a hybrid quantum-classical algorithm which creates a "unitary mirror" of a projected circuit.
We show that the unitary mirror can well-approximate the experimental state above $p_c$ but fails exponentially below it.

In this work, we investigate the effects of quantum noises with size-dependent probabilities $q=p/Lalpha$ where $alpha$ represents the scaling exponent.
We have identified a noise-induced entanglement phase transition from a volume law to a power (area) law in the presence (absence) of measurements.
This unified picture further deepens the understanding of the connection between entanglement behavior and the capacity of information protection.
