As such, a theoretical understanding of the effect of confinement on LGT dynamics is not only of fundamental importance but also can lend itself to upcoming experiments. Here we show how confinement in a Z2 LGT can be  avoided by proximity to a resonance between the fermion mass and the electric field strength. Furthermore, we show that this local deconfinement can become global for certain initial conditions, where information transport occurs over the entire chain. In addition, we show how this can lead to strong quantum many-body scarring starting in different initial states. Our findings provide deeper insights into the nature of confinement in Z2 LGTs and can be tested on current and near-term quantum devices.","lang":"eng"}],"arxiv":1,"file":[{"success":1,"creator":"dernst","file_id":"20333","date_created":"2025-09-10T06:47:23Z","file_name":"2025_PhysReviewB_Desaules.pdf","content_type":"application/pdf","relation":"main_file","date_updated":"2025-09-10T06:47:23Z","file_size":3458424,"access_level":"open_access","checksum":"dd919bb9c4c233eba047af4262e02835"}],"file_date_updated":"2025-09-10T06:47:23Z","oa":1,"corr_author":"1","publication_status":"published","article_number":"014301","oa_version":"Published Version","type":"journal_article","day":"01","tmp":{"legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)","short":"CC BY (4.0)","image":"/images/cc_by.png"},"acknowledgement":"The authors are grateful to Fiona Burnell, Gaurav Gyawali, Zlatko Papić, Elliot Rosenberg, Pedram Roushan, Michael Schecter, and Una Šlanka for insightful discussions.
