Surviving readout errors and incomplete postselection in monitored quantum circuits

The study investigates how readout errors affect charge sharpening in U(1)-symmetric quantum circuits. It found that the sharp phase survives even with finite error rates, where vanishing fluctuations become a finite plateau. This plateau signals a competition between measurement-induced purification and noise-induced mixing, providing a robust probe for measurement-induced criticality under realistic noise.
