Entanglement and Critical Dynamics in (1+1)D (Rydberg) Quantum Cellular Automata — •Edward Gillman1, Federico Carollo1,2, and Igor Lesanovsky1,2 — 1School of Physics and Astronomy,University of Nottingham, Nottingham, NG7 2RD, United Kingdom — 2Institut für Theoretische Physik, Universität Tübingen, Auf der Morgenstelle 14, 72076 Tübingen, Germany
The study of non-equilibrium phase transitions in dissipative quantum many-body systems presents a significant challenge [1,2]. One open problem relates to the relevance of quantum correlations, and particularly entanglement, on critical physics. Recently, quantum cellular automata (QCA) * realisable in quantum simulators based on Rydberg atoms * have been shown to constitute an ideal platform for investigating such questions. In this talk we present a framework for analysing QCA with absorbing states based on projected entangled pairs states. This permits the study and quantification of the effect of entanglement on non-equilibrium dynamics and critical behaviour.
