Quantum signal processing in Hilbert space fragmented systems

Quantum signal processing (QSP), originally developed for composite pulse sequences in nuclear magnetic resonance systems, has recently attracted attention as a unified framework for quantum algorithms. A pioneering study applied QSP to nonequilibrium control in integrable many-body systems, enabling the realization of nonequilibrium dynamics with greater flexibility than Floquet engineering. However, extending QSP to nonintegrable systems faces fundamental obstacles arising from the limited number of conserved quantities and thermalization. In this work, we propose a protocol that leverages QSP in systems exhibiting Hilbert space fragmentation (HSF). Specifically, we consider a pair-hopping model with four-fold periodic potentials that exhibits an HSF structure, thereby providing integrable and nonintegrable sectors within a single system. We analytically show that nonequilibrium dynamics can be flexibly designed through QSP engineered by these potentials in the integrable sectors. In contrast, we numerically identify signatures of thermalization in the nonintegrable sectors. Remarkably, by inserting domain walls, we achieve parallel control of multiple quantum dynamics within a single system. This approach sheds light on the control of nonequilibrium dynamics from the perspective of quantum computation by extending the scope of QSP to nonintegrable systems.
