Topological Quantum Many-Body Scars in Quantum Dimer Models on the Kagome Lattice

ORAL

Abstract

We present a general strategy to turn classes of frustration free lattice models into similar classes containing quantum many-body scars within the bulk of their spectrum while preserving much or all of the original symmetry. Focusing on a class of quantum dimer models, we choose a representative model living on the kagome lattice and discuss numerous results of the embedded scar state(s) and its parent Hamiltonian including entanglement properties and thermalization utilizing an exact diagonalization study of lattices of up to 60 sites.
