Stabilizer Scars

Quantum many-body scars are eigenstates in nonintegrable isolated quantum systems that defy typical thermalization paradigms, violating the eigenstate thermalization hypothesis and quantum ergodicity. Here, we identify exact analytic scar solutions in a 2+1 dimensional lattice gauge theory in a quasi-1D limit as zero-magic resource stabilizer states. Our results also highlight the importance of magic resources for gauge theory thermalization, revealing a connection between computational complexity and quantum ergodicity.
