Quantum computers promise advantages for simulating strongly correlated quantum many-body systems, like atomic nuclei, that are beyond the reach of classical computers. Realizing this potential requires understanding the quantum complexity structure of the target problem. We investigate the time-evolution of two key indicators of quantum complexity, bipartite entanglement entropy and non-local magic (non-stabilizerness), in nuclear reaction dynamics. We analyze two representative dynamical processes: scattering in a one-dimensional model of strongly interacting fermions governed by the Negele potential, and a realistic simulation of $^{240}$Pu fission within time-dependent Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (TDHFB) theory. In the former case, we find that interactions dynamically generate both entanglement and non-local magic, leaving persistent signatures of quantum complexity in the outgoing states. In the latter, we observe that substantial quantum complexity survives in the spatial bipartition of daughter fragments well beyond scission. The presence of significant non-local magic and entanglement in both cases strongly indicate that quantum computers would provide substantial advantages for accurately simulating nuclear reaction dynamics.
Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) methods are among the central numerical tools for studying strongly correlated quantum many-body systems, particularly in higher dimensions. As quantum information has introduced new information-theoretic perspectives and diagnostics into many-body physics, QMC methods have accordingly been ex...
Entanglement and magic are resources that reveal complementary aspects of quantum many-body systems. Their interplay is captured by nonlocal magic, the magic that survives arbitrary local changes of basis. Yet their markedly different dynamical behavior leaves open how this irreducible component of magic spreads. Here...

Understanding and coherently controlling the properties of interacting quantum many-body systems is a central challenge in non-equilibrium quantum physics. While in the past decades, a wide range of many-body Hamiltonians have been introduced to study quantum chaos, atypical eigenstates, and quantum resources, systemat...

Entanglement phase transitions driven by quantum measurements have emerged as a central paradigm in open quantum many-body physics. Such phase transitions are well established for systems with finite local Hilbert-space dimensions, such as qubits and fermions, while their realization in bosonic systems with unbounded l...

We analyze the quantum-to-classical transition of interacting systems from the viewpoint of reduced dynamical closure. Bohmian trajectories are used as a diagnostic of the probability flow generated by the full wavefunction, rather than as an alternative set of quantum predictions. A closed classical or semiclassical d...
Continuous weak measurements of quantum systems are of great relevance in quantum foundations and applications. They can be achieved by probing the quantum system of interest by repeatedly measuring an auxiliary system weakly coupled to it. Here we study two qubits coupled in different points to a common one-dimensiona...
