  bibo_abstract:
  - Solitons—localized wave packets that travel without spreading—play a central role
    in understanding transport and properties of nonlinear systems. In quantum many-body
    systems, however, such robust excitations are typically destroyed by thermalization.
    Here, we theoretically demonstrate the existence of solitonic excitations in high-energy
    states of Rydberg atom chains in the regime of strong nearest-neighbor Rydberg
    blockade. These localized wave packets propagate directionally atop a special
    class of reviving initial states related to quantum many-body scars and are capable
    of carrying energy. Exhibiting long coherence times, these states constitute a
    form of non-ergodic quantum dynamics and can be efficiently implemented on Rydberg
    atom simulators. In this work, in addition to a phenomenological description of
    solitons, we identify their counterpart in a classical nonlinear dynamical system,
    demonstrate their potential use in quantum information transfer, and conjecture
    their relevance for anomalous energy transport reported in numerical studies of
    Rydberg atom arrays.@eng
