• Abstract: Rydberg atom arrays are powerful platforms for studying quantum many-body systems. We consider the Rydberg-Ising Hamiltonian on periodic chains and numerically study ensembles of states generated by random global pulse sequences subject to hardware constraints and fixed evolution times. We compare the statistical properties of such states with those of Haar-random states within the relevant lattice symmetry sector. In the strong-interaction regime (short interatomic distance), the dynamics is governed by an effective blockade that restricts Hilbert-space exploration and limits entanglement growth. In this regime, level-spacing statistics of reduced density matrices are close to random-matrix predictions, while the distribution of measurement probabilities deviates from Porter-Thomas behavior. For weaker interactions (larger interatomic distance), the system approaches Haar-like statistics at long times, as reflected in entanglement entropy, entanglement spectrum statistics, and the distribution of measurement probabilities. At intermediate interactions, this behavior is observed on experimentally relevant timescales. Motivated by this observation, we investigate whether generic symmetric quantum states can be efficiently prepared using quantum optimal control in this regime. Employing target states drawn from an ensemble with a broad entropy distribution, we observe high fidelities (infidelities between $10^{-5}$ and $3\times 10^{-2}$ for 9 spins). The fidelity, however, decreases with the entanglement entropy of the target state, demonstrating that highly entangled states are intrinsically harder to prepare under realistic constraints.

  A recent Google Quantum AI experiment demonstrated the persistence of such collective excitations even when the integrability is broken. We study the spectrum of the model realized in the experiment using exact diagonalization and physical arguments. We find that isolated bands corresponding to the descendants of the exact bound states of the integrable model are clearly observable in the spectrum for a large range of system sizes.

The observed random ensembles emerge from projective measurements and are intimately linked to universal correlations built up between subsystems of a larger quantum system. Our work has implications for understanding randomness in quantum dynamics, and enables applications of this concept in a wider context.

  We study the dynamics of textitsymmetry violation in quantum many-body systems with slight coherent (at strength $lambda$) or incoherent breaking of their local and global symmetries. We show that symmetry breaking generically leads to a crossover in the divergence growth from diffusive behavior at onset times to ballistic or hyperballistic scaling at intermediate times, before diffusion dominates at long times.

  In the quantum Zeno effect, quantum measurements can block the coherent oscillation of a two level system by freezing its state to one of the measurement eigenstates. We show that the onset of the Zeno regime is marked by a $textitcascade of transitions$ in the system dynamics as the measurement strength is increased.
