Explore measurement-prepared quantum phases and phase transitions in this 56-minute lecture by Zhen Bi at the Galileo Galilei Institute. Delve into topics ranging from the Ising model to gauge theory and beyond. Learn about quantum simulators, resource states, and the preparation of symmetry-breaking and long-range entangled states. Examine the properties of critical states, spatial correlation functions, and 3D generalizations. Investigate the mapping to statistical mechanics models, phase diagrams, and random outcomes in 2D random bond Ising models. Discover techniques for decoding hidden order and understanding the Edwards-Anderson order parameter in this comprehensive exploration of quantum physics.
