Above a critical noise strength, operator scrambling in random circuits is suppressed leading to classical simulability; below it, simulation stays exponentially hard.

The maximally mixed state in the translation-invariant subspace of a 1D ring is long-range entangled because the dimension of translationally symmetric short-range entangled states grows polynomially while the full subspace grows exponentially.
LOE for Haar random dynamics asymptotically matches the Page curve for traceless operators and is independent of the initial operator at leading order.
