We introduce a model of a quantum walk on a graph in which a particle jumps between neighboring nodes and interacts with independent spins sitting on the edges. Entanglement propagates with the walker. We apply this model to the case of a…

The T=0 dynamical properties of the one-dimensional (1D) $s=1/2$ Heisenberg antiferromagnet in a uniform magnetic field are studied via Bethe ansatz for cyclic chains of $N$ sites. The ground state at magnetization $0<M_z<N/2$, which can be…
We propose uncertainty relations for the different coordinates of spacetime events, motivated by Heisenberg's principle and by Einstein's theory of classical gravity. A model of Quantum Spacetime is then discussed where the commutation…
A Bloch point represents a three-dimensional hedgehog singularity of a magnetic vector field in which the magnetization vanishes. However, standard micromagnetic theory, developed for magnetic moments of fixed lengths, lacks full…
