Unraveling-Dependent Metastability in Monitored Quantum Systems and Associative Memories

Metastability in open quantum systems is usually inferred from spectral separation in the Liouvillian, which governs unconditional, ensemble-averaged dynamics. We show that this diagnosis is incomplete at the level of individual quantum trajectories: conditioned realizations of the same unconditional dynamics can bypas...
