• Abstract: It has been shown [arXiv:2007.00845] that three families of highly symmetric states are many-body scars for any spin-1/2 fermionic Hamiltonian of the form $H_0+OT$, where $T$ is a generator of an appropriate Lie group. One of these families consists of the well-known $\eta$-pairing states. In addition to having the usual properties of scars, these families of states are insensitive to electromagnetic noise and have advantages for storing and processing quantum information. In this paper we show that a number of well-known coupling terms, such as the Hubbard and the Heisenberg interactions, and the Hamiltonians containing them, are of the required form and support these states as scars without fine-tuning. The explicit $H_0+OT$ decomposition for a number of most commonly used models, including topological ones, is provided. To facilitate possible experimental implementations, we discuss the conditions for the low-energy subspace of these models to be comprised solely of scars. Further, we write down all the generators $T$ that can be used as building blocks for designing new models with scars, most interestingly including the spin-orbit coupled hopping and superconducting pairing terms. We expand this framework to the non-Hermitian open systems and demonstrate that for them the scar subspace continues to undergo coherent time evolution and exhibit the "revivals". A full numerical study of an extended 2D $tJU$ model explicitly illustrates the novel properties of the invariant scars and supports our findings.

  We consider a class of Heisenberg all-to-all coupled spin models inspired by neutrino interactions in a supernova with $N$ degrees of freedom. These models are characterized by a coupling matrix that is relatively simple in the sense that there are only a few, relative to $N$, non-trivial eigenvalues.

• Duality between open systems and closed bilayer systems, and thermofield double states as quantum many-body scars [49.1574468325115]
  We find a duality between open many-body systems governed by the Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad (GKSL) equation. Under this duality, the identity operator on the open system side maps to the thermofield double state. We identify broad classes of many-body open systems with nontrivial explicit eigen operators $Q$ of the Lindbladian superoperator.

  We study the ergodicity-breaking "quantum many-body scar" states that appear in the PXP model describing constrained Rabi oscillations. For a wide class of bipartite lattices of Rydberg atoms, we reveal that the nearly energy-equidistant tower of these states arises from the Hamiltonian's close proximity to a generalized projector-embedding form.
