• Abstract: Flat band physics is a central theme in modern condensed matter physics. By constructing a tight--binding single particle system that has vanishing momentum dispersion in one or more bands, and subsequently including more particles and interactions, it is possible to study physics in strongly interacting regimes. Inspired by the glued trees that first arose in one of the few known examples of quantum supremacy, we define and analyze two infinite families of tight binding single particle Bose--Hubbard models that have only flat bands, and only compact localized states despite having any nonnegative number of translation symmetries. The first class of model that we introduce is constructed by replacing a sufficiently large fraction of the edges in a generic countable graph with glued trees modified to have complex hoppings. The second class arises from thinking of complex weighted glued trees as rhombi that can then be used to tile two dimensional space, giving rise to the familiar dice lattice and infinitely many generalizations thereof, of which some are Euclidian while others are hyperbolic.

  We introduce a large class of models exhibiting robust ergodicity breaking in quantum dynamics. Our work is inspired by recent discussions of "topologically robust space fragmentation" We make crisp connections to gauge theories, and our construction generalizes Kitaev's quantum double to infinite groups.

  We show how to reduce the geometry of degenerate states to the non-abelian connection $A$. We find independent invariants associated with each triple of subspaces. Some of them generalize the Berry-Pancharatnam phase, and some do not have analogues for 1-dimensional subspaces.

  We study the continuous time quantum walk of a single particle (initially localized at a single site) on a one-dimensional spatial lattice. Complex couplings lead to chiral propagation and a causal cone structure asymmetric about the origin. We find a global "quasi-stationary state" which can be described in terms of the local quasi-particle densities satisfying type of hydrodynamic equation.

  We derivationate the fusion structure of anyons from some underlying physical principles. In particular, given a system of $n$ quasiparticles, we show that the action of a certain $n$-braid $beta_n$ uniquely specifies its superselection sectors. We provide an overview of the braiding and fusion structure of anyons in the usual setting of braided $6j$ fusion systems.
