Entanglement phase transitions in correlated 1D spin chains — •Monalisa Singh Roy, Jonathan Ruhman, Emanuele G. Dalla Torre, and Efrat Shimshoni — Department of Physics, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat Gan 5290000, Israel

Entanglement phase transitions have attracted immense attention in recent years especially in the context of monitored quantum circuits. In such systems the dynamics due to unitary evolution compete with the localization induced by measurements. The phase transition of quantum systems from a phase where its entanglement entropy exhibits volume law for weak monitoring, to a quantum Zeno like phase with where the entanglement entropy obeys area law is well known in many models with unitary dynamics. Some recently proposals have identified a critical phase with a logarithmic scaling of entanglement in non-Hermitian models. We explore such a critical transition in a monitored quantum spin chain model and identify the entanglement transitions in the system under both unitary and non-unitary evolutions.
