Stable infinite-temperature eigenstates in SU(2)-symmetric nonintegrable models
Christopher J. Turner, Marcin Szyniszewski, Bhaskar Mukherjee +3
Nonintegrable many-body quantum systems typically thermalize at long times through the mechanism of quantum chaos. However, some exceptional systems, such as those harboring quantu…
Correspondence principle for many-body scars in ultracold Rydberg atoms
Christopher J. Turner, Jean-Yves Desaules, Kieran Bull +1
The theory of quantum scarring -- a remarkable violation of quantum unique ergodicity -- rests on two complementary pillars: the existence of unstable classical periodic orbits and…
Stabilizing two-dimensional quantum scars by deformation and synchronization
A. A. Michailidis, C. J. Turner, Z. Papić +2
Relaxation to a thermal state is the inevitable fate of non-equilibrium interacting quantum systems without special conservation laws. While thermalization in one-dimensional (1D)…
Slow quantum thermalization and many-body revivals from mixed phase space
A. A. Michailidis, C. J. Turner, Z. Papić +2
Relaxation of few-body quantum systems can strongly depend on the initial state when the system's semiclassical phase space is mixed, i.e., regions of chaotic motion coexist with r…
Emergent SU(2) dynamics and perfect quantum many-body scars
Soonwon Choi, Christopher J. Turner, Hannes Pichler +6
Motivated by recent experimental observations of coherent many-body revivals in a constrained Rydberg atom chain, we construct a weak quasi-local deformation of the Rydberg blockad…
Quantum many-body scars
Christopher J. Turner, Alexios A. Michailidis, Dmitry A. Abanin +2
Certain wave functions of non-interacting quantum chaotic systems can exhibit "scars" in the fabric of their real-space density profile. Quantum scarred wave functions concentrate…
