Response of quantum spin networks to attacks

Understand

We investigate the ground states of spin models defined on networks that we imprint (e.g.

• non-complex random networks like Erdos-Renyi or complex networks like Watts-Strogatz, and Barabasi-Albert), and their response to decohering processes which we model with network attacks.
• We quantify the complexity of these ground states, and their response to the attacks, by calculating distributions of network measures of an emergent network whose link weights are the pairwise mutual information between spins.
• We focus on attacks which projectively measure spins.
