Flat band induced local Hilbert space fragmentation
We demonstrate that a complete class of flat-band lattices with underlying commutative local symmetries exhibit a locally fragmented Hilbert space. The equitable partition theorem ensures distinct parities for the compact localized states (CLSs) present in this class of flat-band lattices and the extended eigenstates of the system. In the presence …
