• Abstract: We study the single-particle Green's function $G(x,t)=\langle σ^-_x(0)σ^+_0(t)\rangle$ in one-dimensional particle-number-conserving random unitary circuits coupled to an external bath. For fixed spacetime disorder, we argue that $G(x,t)$ is governed, in both the strong- and weak-noise limits, by directed waves in a random medium. We find Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) scaling in the wandering statistics of the normalized spatial distribution $p(x,t)\propto |G(x,t)|^2$ and in the associated free energy. In particular, its center $\langle x(t)\rangle\equiv\sum_x x\, p(x,t)$ wanders on a length-scale $\mathcal{O}(t^{2/3})$, while sample-to-sample fluctuations of $-\log\sum_x |G(x,t)|^2$ scale as $t^{1/3}$. At weak noise $γ\ll 1$, the crossover to the strong-disorder fixed point occurs at a parametrically long time $\mathcal{O}(γ^{-3/2})$. These predictions are confirmed numerically using tensor-network simulations of the noisy operator dynamics in individual circuits at moderate noise, and of a phase-annealed proxy retaining hopping disorder at weak noise.

  Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $mathbfx*$ rather than for all $mathbfx*$ simultaneously. Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples. We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy.

  We study the distribution over measurement outcomes of noisy random quantum circuits in the low-fidelity regime. For local noise that is sufficiently weak and unital, correlations (measured by the linear cross-entropy benchmark) between the output distribution $p_textnoisy$ of a generic noisy circuit instance shrink exponentially. If the noise is incoherent, the output distribution approaches the uniform distribution $p_textunif$ at precisely the same rate.
