Hamiltonian systems with charge and dipole conservation far from equilibrium — •Pablo Sala, Tibor Rakovszky, Ruben Verresen, Michael Knap, and Frank Pollmann — Technische Universität München, Physics Department T42, 85747 Garching, Germany

Recently so-called fracton phases, which are characterized by excitations with restricted mobility, have been discovered. The mobility constraints are related to the conservation of a U(1) charge and its associated dipole moment. Motivated by results on random unitary circuits [1], we study one dimensional spin-1/2 and spin-1 Hamiltonian systems conserving these two intertwined quantities and consider the implications of a U(1) local gauge invariance. We investigate the effects of these conservation laws on the dynamics, and the implications for higher dimensional systems following the same construction.
