Haar randomness is the standard null model for quantum typicality, scrambling, and random-matrix formulations of thermalization. In many physical settings, however, randomness is naturally constrained to subspaces of Hilbert space. This structure arises, in particular, both in systems with symmetry-resolved sectors and in the Eigenstate Thermalization Hypothesis (ETH), where mesoscopic energy windows define subspaces in which nearby energy eigenstates are mixed. Motivated by these settings, we consider a Block-Unitary Ensemble consisting of independently Haar-random unitaries acting on each subspace. We develop a constructive Weingarten Calculus for this ensemble, providing a unified framework across quantum information and many-body physics. This construction reveals a symmetry-resolved Schur-Weyl duality, where the relevant commutant is not the ordinary permutation algebra, but the one of color-preserving permutations. We apply this framework to quantum states under symmetry constraints and to energy-resolved ensembles for ETH.
We develop a framework to construct large decoherence-free subspaces with a non-trivial structure. The construction is based on hybrid quantum systems in which quantum matter is coupled to a dissipative bosonic mode. Dissipation imposes a global constraint on the matter by selecting the matter null states in the long-t...
Black holes are conjectured to be maximally chaotic, with their quantum spectra expected to exhibit universal random-matrix correlations. This expectation, however, has so far rested largely on holographic descriptions or on many-body models in which randomness is introduced rather than derived from the microscopic deg...
Matchgate circuits describe classically tractable dynamics in a physically relevant setting while nonetheless exhibiting features characteristic of complex quantum systems, such as high amounts of magic. This invites the broader question: to what extent are typical complexity measures saturated under trivial dynamics?...

We study the one-sided time evolution of thermofield double (TFD) states in random matrix theory, where the Hamiltonian is taken to be a $D\times D$ random matrix drawn from a unitarily invariant emsemble of Hermitian matrices. We argue that the Krylov basis with the maximally entangled state taken as the initial vecto...
Random unitary operations are a fundamental resource for quantum information processing, yet provably generating them with experimentally available controls remains challenging. Existing approaches often require calculating higher-order operator expectation values, relying on statistical assumptions about the experimen...

We study the emergent randomness in projected ensembles generated by dual-unitary circuits. Specifically, we consider evolution by solvable dual-unitary brickwork circuits followed by measurements on part of the system, which induce an ensemble of states on the unmeasured subsystem. Previous work has established that t...
