Quantum many-body scar states are exceptional finite energy density eigenstates in an otherwise thermalizing system that do not satisfy the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis. We investigate the fate of exact many-body scar states under…
Quantum thermalization occurs in a broad class of systems from elementary particles to complex materials. Out-of-equilibrium quantum systems have long been understood to either thermalize or retain memory of their initial states, but not…
The complexity of highly excited eigenstates is a central theme in nonequilibrium many-body physics, underpining questions of thermalization, classical simulability, and quantum information structure. In this work, considering the…
