What is Exact Floquet quantum many-body scars under Rydberg blockade about?

Quantum many-body scars have attracted much interest as a violation of the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis (ETH) due to recent experimental observation in Rydberg atoms and related theoretical studies. In this paper, we construct a model hosting exact Floquet quantum many-body scars, which violate the Floquet version of ETH. We consider two uniformly-driven static Hamiltonians prohibiting neighboring up spins (Rydberg blockade) like the PXP model, and construct a binary drive composed of them. We show that there exists a four-dimensional subspace which completely avoids thermalization to infinite temperature and that any other states, including some special scar states reported in the static PXP model, are vulnerable to heating and relax to infinite temperature. We also construct a more generalized periodic drive composed of time-dependent PXP-type Hamiltonians showing exact Floquet quantum many-body scars and discuss possible experimental realization of the model in Rydberg atoms.
