Entanglement phase transitions in hybrid quantum circuits describe individual quantum trajectories rather than the measurement-averaged ensemble, despite the fact that results of measurements are not conventionally used for feedback. Here,…
The evolution of a quantum system subject to measurements can be described by stochastic quantum trajectories of pure states. Instead, the ensemble average over trajectories is a mixed state evolving via a master equation. Both descriptions…

We identify a phase transition between two kinds of volume-law entangled phases in non-local but few-body unitary dynamics with local projective measurements. In one phase, a finite fraction of the system belongs to a fully-entangled state,…
Ergodic quantum many-body systems undergoing unitary dynamics evolve towards increasingly entangled states characterized by an extensive scaling of entanglement entropy with system volume. At the other extreme, quantum systems repeatedly…
