Syllabus
Floquet engineering of quantum scars
Outline
Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis
Violation of ETH
Classical and Quantum Scars
Scars in Quantum Many-body Hamiltonians
Quantum Dynamics with scars
Realization of states with broken Zn symmetries n=2,3,4 with Rydberg atoms
The dipole model
Effective dipole Hamiltonian
The model has a straightforward representation in terms of Ising spins
Periodic drive and Magnus expansion
We study a simple square pulse protocol
Analytical calculation of HF: Magnus expansion
Derivation of Ow Floquet Hamiltonian
Dynamics of the Correlation function
High frequency regime: Lambda/Omega 1
Intermediate frequency regime Lambda/Omega 01
Phase diagram for the periodically driven Rydberg chain
Noisy dynamics
Square pulses with random drive period
The leading term of the commutator C = [U+, U_] may vanish at special drive frequencies
Analytical prediction of regions where random drive would lead to coherent oscillations
Dynamics around Gamma ~ Pi
Noise induced coherent dynamics around dT/T=1/4, 3/4.
Dynamics around Gamma ~ 2Pi
