Measurements Conspire Nonlocally to Restructure Critical Quantum States

We study theoretically how local measurements performed on critical quantum ground states affect long-distance correlations. These states are highly entangled and feature algebraic correlations between local observables. As a consequence, local measurements can have highly nonlocal effects. Our focu...
