Ergodicity breaking with long-range cavity-induced quasiperiodic interactions

Many-body localization (MBL) behavior is analyzed in an extended Bose-Hubbard model with quasiperiodic infinite-range interactions. No additional disorder is assumed. The analysis of the level statistics and of the eigenstates' entanglement entropy shows that a significant fraction of eigenstates becomes localized as the strength of the global interactions is increased. This behavior scales differently depending on the choice of the...
