摘要

Monitored many-body quantum systems can exhibit a measurement-induced phase transition (MIPT) between entangling and disentangling dynamical phases. Proposed approaches to study the MIPT experimentally typically rely on a classical decoding process, but the complexity of this decoding generally grows exponentially with the system size unless the dynamics is restricted to a fine-tuned set of unitary operators. In this work we overcome this difficulty in the context of tree-shaped quantum circuits. We construct a hybrid circuit with Haar-random unitary operators, and we show that the MIPT can be detected without postselection using a simple decoding process whose complexity grows linearly with the number of qubits. The tree structure also enables a complete theoretical description of the MIPT and all its critical properties. We experimentally realize the MIPT on a trapped-ion quantum computer and show that the results are precisely described by theory without the need for error mitigation.
