Genuine many-body quantum scarring in a periodic Bose-Hubbard ring — •Quirin Hummel and Peter Schlagheck — Université de Liège (Belgium)

Quantum scars have been known for decades to exist in quantum systems of low dimensionality (e.g. ``quantum billiards''): While most eigenstates of a classically chaotic system are typically spread across the accessible phase space, individual states exist that are concentrated along unstable classical periodic orbits. On the other hand, recent studies in many-body quantum systems that admit no known meaningful classical limits have revealed eigenstates - now termed ``quantum many-body scars'' - that feature quantum mechanical properties reminiscent of scenarios of quantum scarring. An unambiguous classification as scars in the original sense, however, remains controversial, if not fundamentally impossible due to the lack of a classical limit. In order to bridge this gap, we investigate the phenomenon of quantum scarring in the prototypical Bose-Hubbard model, a many-body quantum system that combines both, a well-defined formally classical description and the typical high-dimensionality of many-body systems identified with the number of sites that constitute the one-body state space.
