We study a kinetically constrained pair hopping model that arises within a Landau level in the quantum Hall effect. At filling $\nu = 1/3$, the model exactly maps onto the so-called PXP model", a constrained model for the Rydberg atom chain that is numerically known to exhibit ETH-violating states in the middle of the spectrum or quantum many-body scars. Indeed, particular charge density wave configurations exhibit the same revivals seen in the PXP model. We generalize the mapping to fillings…

The dynamics are shown to be governed by kinetic constraints which appear via density-assisted tunneling in a high-frequency expansion and the optimal driving parameters for the kinetically constrained hopping are found which leads to small isolated subspaces of scared eigenstates.
