Edge-dependent anomalous topology in synthetic photonic lattices subject to discrete step walks

R El Sokhen, Á Gómez-León, AF Adiyatullin… - Physical Review …, 2024 - APS
Anomalous topological phases, where edge states coexist with topologically trivial Chern
bands, can only appear in periodically driven lattices. When the driving is smooth and …

Local topological switch for boundary states in quantum walks

X Zhan, Y Yu, P Xue - Physical Review A, 2024 - APS
Localization is a critical phenomenon in quantum walks that has attracted much attention in
quantum simulations. In this paper, we present a unified framework for investigating the …

[HTML][HTML] Quantum walks in weak stochastic gauge fields

J Wójcik - Physics Letters A, 2024 - Elsevier
Contrary to the ballistic dynamics of standard quantum walks, the behavior of stochastic
quantum walks is known to be diffusive. Here we study discrete time quantum walks in weak …

Parity breaking in Thouless quantum walks

C Danieli, L Pilozzi, C Conti, V Brosco - arXiv preprint arXiv:2412.02429, 2024 - arxiv.org
Non-Abelian evolution is a landmark in modern theoretical physics. But if non-commutative
dynamics has a significant impact in the control of entanglement and transport in quantum …

Entanglement and fidelity across quantum phase transitions in locally perturbed topological codes with open boundaries

AK Pal - arXiv preprint arXiv:2405.00416, 2024 - arxiv.org
We investigate the topological-to-non-topological quantum phase transitions (QPTs)
occurring in the Kitaev code under local perturbations in the form of local magnetic field and …
