Quantum Many-Body Scars and Hilbert Space Fragmentation: A Review of Exact Results
read the original abstract
The discovery of Quantum Many-Body Scars (QMBS) both in Rydberg atom simulators and in the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) spin-1 chain model, have shown that a weak violation of ergodicity can still lead to rich experimental and theoretical physics. In this review, we provide a pedagogical introduction to and an overview of the exact results on weak ergodicity breaking via QMBS in isolated quantum systems with the help of simple examples such as the fermionic Hubbard model. We also discuss various mechanisms and unifying formalisms that have been proposed to encompass the plethora of systems exhibiting QMBS. We cover examples of equally-spaced towers that lead to exact revivals for particular initial states, as well as isolated examples of QMBS. Finally, we review Hilbert Space Fragmentation, a related phenomenon where systems exhibit a richer variety of ergodic and non-ergodic behaviors, and discuss its connections to QMBS.

Quantum scars from holographic boson stars
Mini-boson stars in AdS spacetime are proposed as holographic realizations of quantum scars, exhibiting chaotic spectra with integrable subsectors, anomalously low entanglement, and robust Krylov complexity revivals.

Geometric fragmentation and anomalous thermalization in cubic dimer model
External electric fields in 3D U(1) quantum dimer models with staggered matter induce geometric fragmentation, weak fragmentation, and fractonic excitations in large winding sectors, producing anomalous thermalization.

Krylov-Space Memory Cores
Anomalous initial states in otherwise thermalizing models leave compact, stationary low-depth Krylov-space cores—regions with persistent fluctuations, Gibbs mismatch, and current activity—while generic states do not.

Robustness of near-thermal dynamics on digital quantum computers
Trotterized near-thermal dynamics are substantially more robust to gate and Trotter errors than assumed, enabled by linear gate-error scaling with entanglement and a random product state ensemble approximating thermal states.
