- Abstract: Many-body localization provides a mechanism to avoid thermalization in
isolated interacting quantum systems. The breakdown of thermalization may be
complete, when all eigenstates in the many-body spectrum become localized, or
partial, when the so-called many-body mobility edge separates localized and
delocalized parts of the spectrum. Previously, De Roeck \textit{et
al.}[arXiv:1506.01505] suggested a possible instability of the many-body
mobility edge in energy density. The local ergodic regions -- so called
"bubbles" -- resonantly spread throughout the system, leading to
delocalization. In order to study such instability mechanism, in this work we
design a model featuring many-body mobility edge in \emph{particle density}:
the states at small particle density are localized, while increasing the
density of particles leads to delocalization. Using numerical simulations with
matrix product states we demonstrate the stability of MBL with respect to small
bubbles in large dilute systems for experimentally relevant timescales. In
addition, we demonstrate that processes where the bubble spreads are favored
over processes that lead to resonant tunneling, suggesting a possible mechanism
behind the observed stability of many-body mobility edge. We conclude by
proposing experiments to probe particle density mobility edge in Bose-Hubbard
model.

We study a mobile impurity, representing a small quantum bath, that interacts locally with an Anderson insulator with a finite density of localized particles.
Using an extension of the density matrix renormalization group algorithm to excited states (DMRG-X), we approximate the highly excited eigenstates of the system.
We find that the impurity remains localized in the eigenstates and entanglement is enhanced in a finite region around the position of the impurity.
