Asymptotically independent fluctuations of stabilizer Rényi entropy and entanglement in random unitary circuits

Abstract

We investigate numerically the joint distribution of magic (as described by the stabilizer 2-Rényi entropy <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><a:msub><a:mi>M</a:mi><a:mn>2</a:mn></a:msub></a:math>) and entanglement (as described by the von Neumann entropy <b:math xmlns:b="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><b:mi>S</b:mi></b:math>) in <c:math xmlns:c="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><c:mi>N</c:mi></c:math>-qubit Haar-random quantum states. The distribution <d:math xmlns:d="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><d:mrow><d:msub><d:mi>P</d:mi><d:mi>N</d:mi></d:msub><d:mrow><d:mo>(</d:mo><d:msub><d:mi>M</d:mi><d:mn>2</d:mn></d:msub><d:mo>,</d:mo><d:mi>S</d:mi><d:mo>)</d:mo></d:mrow></d:mrow></d:math> and the marginals become exponentially localized, and centered around the typical values, <e:math xmlns:e="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><e:mrow><e:mover accent="true"><e:msub><e:mi>M</e:mi><e:mn>2</e:mn></e:msub><e:mo>̃</e:mo></e:mover><e:mo>→</e:mo><e:mi>N</e:mi><e:mo>−</e:mo><e:mn>2</e:mn></e:mrow></e:math> and <g:math xmlns:g="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><g:mrow><g:mover accent="true"><g:mi>S</g:mi><g:mo>̃</g:mo></g:mover><g:mo>→</g:mo><g:mi>N</g:mi><g:mo>/</g:mo><g:mn>2</g:mn></g:mrow></g:math> as <i:math xmlns:i="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"><i:mrow><i:mi>N</i:mi><i:mo>→</i:mo><i:mi>∞</i:mi></i:mrow></i:math>. Magic and entanglement fluctuations are, however, found to become exponentially uncorrelated.
