Abstract
Bound states in the continuum (BiCs) convert dissipative open systems into effectively closed quantum subspaces through destructive interference. We show that two identical giant atoms coupled to a one-dimensional waveguide support BICs that coincide with maximally entangled atomic states. Most importantly, entanglement is predominantly determined by the geometric design; the ratio of intra-atomic connection lengths fixes the concurrence, while the propagation phase between atoms selects a family of Bell-like states. We further analyze the dynamical stability of these maximally entangled BICs under exact time evolution, revealing a clear hierarchy of robustness against parameter perturbations. Our results establish an analytical bridge between symmetry, geometry, entanglement, and BICs in giant-atom waveguide platforms.
