Recent proposal of the duality between the $N=2$ noncompact QED$_3$ and the easy-plane noncompact CP$^1$ (NCCP$^1$) model suggests that the deconfined quantum critical point (dQCP) between the easy-plane antiferromagnet and the VBS order on…
Conservation laws can constrain entanglement dynamics in isolated quantum systems, manifest in a slowdown of higher R\'enyi entropies. Here, we explore this phenomenon in a class of long-range random Clifford circuits with U$(1)$ symmetry…
In the field of monitored quantum circuits, it has remained an open question whether finite-time protocols for preparing long-range entangled states lead to phases of matter which are stable to gate imperfections, which can convert…
