Purity decay rate in random circuits with different configurations of gates

Bensa, Jaš (avtor), Žnidarič, Marko (avtor)

We study purity decay—a measure of bipartite entanglement—in a chain of $n$ qubits under the action of various geometries of nearest-neighbor random two-site unitary gates. We use a Markov chain description of average purity evolution, using further reduction to obtain a transfer matrix of only polynomial dimension in $n$. In most circuits, an exception being the brick-wall configuration, purity decays to its asymptotic value in two stages: the initial thermodynamically relevant decay persisting up to extensive times is $\sim \lambda^t_{eff}$, with $\lambda_{eff}$ not necessarily being in the spectrum of the transfer matrix, while the ultimate asymptotic decay is given by the second largest eigenvalue $\lambda_2$ of the transfer matrix. The effective rate $\lambda_{eff}$ depends on the location of bipartition boundaries as well as on the geometry of applied gates.
