Abstract
- We analyze the dynamics of entanglement in a paradigmatic noninteracting system subject to continuous monitoring of the local excitation densities. Recently, it was conjectured that the evolution of quantum correlations in such system is described by a semi-classical theory, based on entangled pairs of ballistically propagating quasiparticles and inspired by the hydrodynamic approach to unitary (integrable) quantum systems. Here, however, we show that this conjecture does not fully capture the complex behavior of quantum correlations emerging from the interplay between coherent dynamics and continuous monitoring. We unveil the existence of multipartite quantum correlations which are inconsistent with an entangled-pair structure and which, within a quasiparticle picture, would require the presence of larger multiplets. We also observe that quantum information is highly delocalized, as it is shared in a collective {\it nonredundant} way among adjacent regions of the many-body system. Our results shed new light onto the behavior of correlations in quantum stochastic dynamics and further show that these may be enhanced by a (weak) continuous monitoring process.<br />Comment: 8+5 pages, 5 figures.
