Classification of Phases of Matrix Product States with Symmetric Quantum Circuits, and Symmetric Measurements with Feedforward — •David Gunn1, Tristan Kraft1, Georgios Styliaris2, and Barbara Kraus1, 3 — 1University of Innsbruck — 2Max-Planck-Institut für Quantenoptik — 3Technical University of Munich
We consider how symmetry-preserving measurements with feedforward alter the phase classification of matrix product states (MPS) in the presence of global on-site symmetries. We demonstrate that, for all finite abelian symmetries, by including symmetry-preserving measurements, any two symmetric MPS belong to the same phase. We give an explicit protocol to achieve a transformation between any two phases that uses only a depth-two circuit, two rounds of symmetric measurements, and a constant number of auxiliary systems per site. In the case of non-abelian symmetries, symmetry protection prevents one from deterministically transforming states to product states directly via measurements. Nonetheless, we provide an asymptotically deterministic, symmetry-preserving protocol, using a log-depth circuit and measurements, that demonstrates certain non-abelian, symmetry-protected topological (SPT) phases also trivialize.
