Quantum many-body scars are rare exceptions to thermalization: they sustain non-thermal stationary states without the protection of any local conservation law, and are generally expected to be fragile. Here we construct an analytically…
The one-dimensional tilted, periodically driven Fermi-Hubbard chain is a paradigm in the study of quantum many-body physics, particularly for solid-state systems. We uncover the emergence of Floquet scarring states, a class of quantum…
We consider a 2D quantum spin model with ring-exchange interaction that has subsystem symmetries associated to conserved magnetization along rows and columns of a square lattice, which implies the conservation of the global dipole moment.…
We simulate the dynamics of Rydberg atoms resonantly exchanging energy via two-, three-, and four-body dipole-dipole interactions in a one-dimensional array. Using simplified models of a realistic experimental system, we study the initial…
We introduce a general bipartite-like representation and Schmidt decomposition of an arbitrary pure state of $N$ indistinguishable fermions, based on states of $M<N$ and $(N-M)$ fermions. It is directly connected with the reduced $M$- and…
We extend random matrix theory to consider randomly interacting spin systems with spatial locality. We develop several methods by which arbitrary correlators may be systematically evaluated in a limit where the local Hilbert space dimension…
Given a direct system of Hilbert spaces $s\mapsto \mathcal H_s$ (with isometric inclusion maps $\iota_s^t:\mathcal H_s\rightarrow \mathcal H_t$ for $s\leq t$) corresponding to quantum systems on scales $s$, we define notions of scale…
Permutation-symmetric quantum states appear in a variety of physical situations, and they have been proposed for quantum information tasks. This article builds upon the results of [New J. Phys. 12, 073025 (2010)], where the maximally…
We identify quantum many-body scars in the transverse field quantum Ising model on a ladder. We make explicit how the corresponding (mid spectrum, low entanglement) many-body eigenstates can be approximated by injecting quasi-particle…
Quantum many-body scars are rare eigenstates hidden within the chaotic spectra of many-body systems, representing a weak violation of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH). Identifying these scars, as well as other non-thermal…
An interacting quantum system can transition from an ergodic to a many-body localized (MBL) phase under the presence of sufficiently large disorder. Both phases are radically different in their dynamical properties, which are characterized…
Unstable periodic orbits act as organizing structures for classical chaotic systems and underpin quantum scarring. Long known in single-particle systems, genuine quantum scars based on unstable periodic orbits have been recently extended to…
Protecting coherent quantum dynamics from chaotic environment is key to realizations of fragile many-body phenomena and their applications in quantum technology. We present a general construction that embeds a desired periodic orbit into a…
In quantum many-body systems with kinetically constrained dynamics, the Hilbert space can split into exponentially many disconnected subsectors, a phenomenon known as Hilbert-space fragmentation. We study the interplay of such fragmentation…
Rydberg-cavity systems are emerging as promising platforms for quantum simulation and quantum information processing. These hybrid architectures combine two complementary interaction mechanisms: cavity photons mediate collective long-range…
Understanding the behavior of quantum many-body systems under decoherence is essential for developing robust quantum technologies. Here, we examine the fate of weak ergodicity breaking in systems hosting quantum many-body scars when subject…
A recent experiment in the Rydberg atom chain observed unusual oscillatory quench dynamics with a charge density wave initial state, and theoretical works identified a set of many-body "scar states" showing nonthermal behavior in the…
Confinement of fractionalized excitations can strongly restructure many-body spectra. We investigate this phenomenon in the gapped spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ XXZ chain subject to a staggered field, where spinons bind into domain-wall ``mesons''…
We study a driven, spin-orbit coupled fermionic system in a lattice at the resonant regime where the drive frequency equals the Hubbard repulsion, for which non-trivial constrained dynamics emerge at fast timescales. An effective…
The ongoing quest for understanding nonequilibrium dynamics of complex quantum systems underpins the foundation of statistical physics as well as the development of quantum technology. Quantum many-body scarring has recently opened a window…
