Quantum many-body scars with unconventional superconducting pairing symmetries via multibody interactions by Shohei Imai, Naoto Tsuji

“…We verify that the two-dimensional spinful Hubbard model on a square lattice with the multibody interactions has the spin-triplet d-wave pairing state as an energy eigenstate, which can be regarded as a quantum many-body scar state as evidenced from the numerical analysis of the pair correlation function, entanglement entropy, and level statistics. We also discuss other examples, including spin-triplet f-wave pairing states on a honeycomb lattice and spin-singlet p-wave pairing states in a one-dimensional chain. …”
