Photonic quantum walks with four-dimensional coins

L Lorz, E Meyer-Scott, T Nitsche, V Potoček… - Physical Review …, 2019 - APS
The dimensionality of the internal coin space of discrete-time quantum walks has a strong
impact on the complexity and richness of the dynamics of quantum walkers. While two …

Limit distributions of three-state quantum walks: the role of coin eigenstates

M Štefaňák, I Bezděková, I Jex - Physical Review A, 2014 - APS
We analyze two families of three-state quantum walks which show the localization effect. We
focus on the role of the initial coin state and its coherence in controlling the properties of the …

Limit theorems of a 3-state quantum walk and its application for discrete uniform measures

T Machida - ar** to transport
J Mareš, J Novotný, I Jex - Physical Review A, 2019 - APS
We present an alternative definition of discrete-time coined quantum walks convenient for
capturing a rather broad spectrum of a walker's behavior on arbitrary graphs. It includes and …

[HTML][HTML] Periodicity of lively quantum walks on cycles with generalized Grover coin

RS Sarkar, A Mandal, B Adhikari - Linear Algebra and its Applications, 2020 - Elsevier
In this paper we extend the study of three state lively quantum walks on cycles by
considering the coin operator as linear sum of permutation matrices, which is a …

Key graph properties affecting transport efficiency of flip-flop Grover percolated quantum walks

J Mareš, J Novotný, M Štefaňák, I Jex - Physical Review A, 2022 - APS
Quantum walks exhibit properties without classical analogues. One of those is the
phenomenon of asymptotic trap**—there can be nonzero probability of the quantum …

Localization and limit laws of a three-state alternate quantum walk on a two-dimensional lattice

T Machida, CM Chandrashekar - Physical Review A, 2015 - APS
A two-dimensional discrete-time quantum walk (DTQW) can be realized by alternating a two-
state DTQW in one spatial dimension followed by an evolution in the other dimension. This …

Percolation assisted excitation transport in discrete-time quantum walks

M Štefaňák, J Novotný, I Jex - New Journal of Physics, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Coherent transport of excitations along chains of coupled quantum systems represents an
interesting problem with a number of applications ranging from quantum optics to solar cell …

Complete classification of trap** coins for quantum walks on the two-dimensional square lattice

B Kollár, A Gilyén, I Tkáčová, T Kiss, I Jex, M Štefaňák - Physical Review A, 2020 - APS
One of the unique features of discrete-time quantum walks is called trap**, meaning the
inability of the quantum walker to completely escape from its initial position, although the …

One-dimensional three-state quantum walk with single-point phase defects

YZ Xu, GD Guo, S Lin - International Journal of Theoretical Physics, 2016 - Springer
In this paper, we study a three-state quantum walk with a phase defect at a designated
position. The coin operator is a parametrization of the eigenvectors of the Grover matrix. We …
