Magic in quantum trajectory unravelings of noisy random quantum circuits

This research investigates how different ways of describing quantum noise (unravelings) affect 'magic'—a measure of complexity in noisy quantum circuits. The study found an optimal unraveling, using a generalized measurement instead of simple projective measurements, significantly reduces the average magic density by a factor dependent on noise strength 'p' without changing the overall scaling with system size.
