abstract
Measurements allow efficient preparation of interesting quantum many-body states with long-range entanglement, conditioned on additional transformations based on measurement outcomes. Here, we demonstrate that the so-called conformal quantum critical points (CQCP) can be obtained by performing general single-site measurements in an appropriate basis on the cluster states in $d\geq2$. The equal-time correlators of the said states are described by correlation functions of certain $d$-dimensional classical models at finite temperatures and feature spatial conformal invariance. This establishes an exact correspondence between the measurement-prepared critical states and conformal field theories of a range of critical spin models, including familiar Ising models and gauge theories. Furthermore, by mapping the long-range entanglement structure of measured quantum states into the correlations of the corresponding thermal spin model, we rigorously establish the stability condition of the long-range entanglement in the measurement-prepared quantum states deviating from the ideal setting. Most importantly, we describe protocols to decode the resulting quantum phases and transitions without post-selection, thus transferring the exponential measurement complexity to a polynomial classical computation. Therefore, our findings suggest a novel mechanism in which a quantum critical wavefunction emerges, providing new practical ways to study quantum phases and conformal quantum critical points.

Optimal Decoding for Measurement-Based GHZ State Preparation: The Maximum-Utility Decoder
Decoders that maximize the GHZ state's squared magnetization — especially the near-free syndrome-weighted MWPM — beat bare MWPM and close ~87% of the gap to the optimal threshold; endpoint-only decoders' thresholds re...

Quantum sensing with critical systems: impact of symmetry, imperfections, and decoherence
Symmetry generators give optimal readouts for critical-state quantum sensors, and such sensors stay at or above the standard quantum limit under spin-flip, dephasing, and qubit-loss noise, with non-unitary deformation...
