• Abstract: We investigate the asymptotic stability and ergodic properties of quantum trajectories under imperfect measurement, extending previous results established for the ideal case of perfect measurement. We establish a necessary and sufficient condition ensuring the convergence of the estimated trajectory, initialized from an estimated state, to the true trajectory. This result is obtained assuming that the associated quantum channel is irreducible. Building on this, we prove the uniqueness of the invariant measure and demonstrate convergence toward this measure.

  We study perturbations that break the integrability and/or the symmetry of the model, as well as modifications in the measurement protocol, characterizing the resulting chaos and lack of integrability through the Dissipative Spectral Form Factor (DSFF) We show that while the measurement-induced phase transition and its properties appear broadly insensitive to lack of integrability and breaking of the $bbZ$ symmetry, a modification of the measurement basis from the transverse to the longitudinal direction makes the phase transition disappear altogether.

• Measurement-induced quantum criticality under continuous monitoring [0.0]
  We investigate entanglement phase transitions from volume-law to area-law entanglement in a quantum many-body state under continuous position measurement. We find the signatures of the transitions as peak structures in the mutual information as a function of measurement strength. We propose a possible experimental setup to test the predicted entanglement transition based on the subsystem particle-number fluctuations.
