• Abstract: Quantum devices featuring mid-circuit measurement and reset capabilities, such as quantum computers and dual-species Rydberg quantum simulators, enable the realization of quantum cellular automata. These systems evolve in discrete time following local updates implemented by unitary gates, and allow for the realization of both closed and synthetic open dynamics. Here, we focus on quantum cellular automata that implement minimal models of classical and quantum transport. To illustrate our ideas, we focus on a discrete-time totally asymmetric simple exclusion process and investigate how coherent dynamical contributions allow for the emergence of quantum effects and correlations. We find that bipartite entanglement dominates the transient evolution, while stationary states can retain quantum correlations beyond entanglement. Our results suggest viable routes for realizing transport models on quantum devices and characterizing collective quantum correlations in strongly driven systems.

• Quantum Statistical Complexity Measure as a Signalling of Correlation Transitions [55.41644538483948]
  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.
