Absence of localization in interacting spin chains with a discrete symmetry
ORAL
Abstract
We prove that spin chains symmetric under a combination of mirror and spin-flip symmetries and with a nondegenerate spectrum show finite spin transport at zero total magnetization and infinite temperature. We demonstrate this numerically using two prominent examples: the Stark many-body localization system and the symmetrized many-body localization system. We provide evidence of delocalization at all energy densities and show that the delocalization mechanism is robust to breaking the symmetry. We use our results to construct two localized systems which, when coupled, delocalize each other.
