• Abstract: Eigenstate multifractality, a hallmark of non-interacting disordered metals which can potentially be observed in many-body localized states as well, is characterized by anomalous slow dynamics and appears relevant for many areas of quantum physics from measurement-driven systems to superconductivity. We propose a novel approach to achieve non-ergodic multifractal (NEM) states without disorder by iteratively introducing defects into a crystal lattice, reshaping it from a plain structure into fractal geometry. By comprehensive analysis of the Sierpi\'nski gasket case, we find a robust evidence of the emergence of NEM states that go beyond the conventional classification of quantum states and designate new pathways for quantum transport studies. We discuss potential experimental signatures of these states.

  A class of nonintegrable bond-staggered models is endowed with a large number of zero-energy eigenstates and possesses a non-Abelian internal symmetry. We show that few-magnon zero-energy states have an exact analytical description, allowing us to build a basis of low-entangled fixed-separation states.

The resulting mixed states retain long-range entanglement, which manifests in the nonzero topological entanglement negativity.

  quenches through the critical region of quantum phase transitions result in post-transition states populated with topological defects. We identify coherent quantum oscillations induced by such superpositions in observables complementary to the one involved in symmetry breaking. In addition to the obvious fundamental significance of a superposition of different broken symmetry states, quantum coherent oscillations can be used to verify unitarity and test for imperfections of the experimental implementations of quantum simulators.
