Abstract

Autonomous stabilization of many-body quantum states requires a mechanism that continuously removes stabilizer violations without relying on measurement and feedback. Here we develop a Floquet-Lindblad framework for scalable stabilizer pumping in neutral Rydberg atom arrays. Periodically modulated Rydberg excitation selectively couples the negative-eigenvalue sector of a prescribed stabilizer to auxiliary Rydberg states, while engineered dissipation irreversibly transfers the population into the corresponding positive-eigenvalue sector and leaves the target stabilizer manifold dark. This establishes a modular pumping primitive that can be composed to autonomously stabilize general many-body stabilizer manifolds, rather than merely prepare a specific entangled state. The combination of Floquet-selective excitation and fast engineered dissipation accelerates convergence, while transient single-Rydberg excitation and suppressed real multi-Rydberg occupation reduce sensitivity to Rydberg-state loss, blackbody-radiation-induced leakage, and spatial fluctuations. We demonstrate the framework through Bell and multiqubit graph states, including parallel stabilizer pumping that reduces the convergence time for the simulated multiqubit systems. The same dissipative attraction also enables purification of imperfect resource states. These results establish Floquet-engineered stabilizer pumping as a scalable route toward autonomous quantum-state stabilization and protected entanglement generation in neutral-atom platforms.
