Weakly driven quantum symmetries
The DrumS project will establish a new paradigm for stabilizing exotic non-thermal states by weakly driving quantum many-body systems. Present research theoretically predicts peculiar non-thermal states in fine-tuned models with additional symmetries, for example, in integrable models with macroscopically many conservation laws. However, these models and their exact symmetries cannot be accurately realized in solid-state experiments. My hypothesis is that weak driving can boost the underlying symmetries in realistic setups and have a substantial effect on quantities protected by approximate symmetries, for example, on approximately conserved operators. The basic idea can be illustrated with…
