Entanglement-induced resilience of quantum dynamics

Abstract

Quantum many-body devices suffer from imperfections that destabilize dynamics and limit scalability. We show that the dynamical growth of entanglement can intrinsically protect generic quantum dynamics against coherent noise and local perturbative noise. Through rigorous theoretical analysis of general quantum dynamics and numerical simulations of spin chains and fermionic lattices, we prove that entanglement entropy growth confines the influence of local Hamiltonian perturbations, thereby suppressing dynamical errors. The degree of protection correlates quantitatively with the entanglement entropy of subsystems, on which the perturbations act, and applies broadly to both analog quantum simulators and real-time control protocols. This entanglement-induced resilience is conceptually distinct from quantum error correction or dynamical decoupling: It passively leverages native many-body correlations without additional qubits, measurements, or control overhead. Our results reveal a generic mechanism linking entanglement growth to dynamical stability and provide practical guidelines for designing noise-resilient quantum devices.
