The time-evolution equation of a one-dimensional quantum walker is exactly mapped to the three-dimensional Weyl equation for a zero-mass particle with spin 1/2, in which each wave number k of walker's wave function is mapped to a point…
The quantum walk is a dynamical protocol which describes the motion of spinful particles on a lattice. Also, it has been demonstrated to be a powerful platform to explore topological quantum matter. Recently, the quantum walk in coherent…
We experimentally demonstrate a quantum walk on a line in phase space using one and two trapped ion. A walk with up to 23 steps is realized by subjecting an ion to state-dependent displacement operations interleaved with quantum coin…
Quantum walks have wide applications in quantum information, such as universal quantum computation, so it is important to explore properties of quantum walks thoroughly. We propose a novel method to implement discrete-time quantum walks…
By adding an extra Hilbert space to Hadamard Quantum Walk on Cycles (QWC), we presented a new type of QWCs called M\"obius Quantum Walk (MQW). The new space configuration enables the particle to rotate around the axis of movement. We…
We investigate continuous-time quantum walks of two indistinguishable particles [bosons, fermions or hard-core bosons (HCBs)] in one-dimensional lattices with nearest-neighbor interactions. The results for two HCBs are well consistent with…
A quantum walk in an ordered medium exhibits ballistic propagation. A related process is the driven quantum walk, in which the number of walkers varies along the propagation. In this work, we show that a driven quantum walk of biphoton…

We show that a multi-step quantum walk can be realized for a single trapped ion with interpolation between quantum and random walk achieved by randomizing the generalized Hadamard coin flip phase. The signature of the quantum walk is…
We consider an special dynamics of a quantum walk (QW) on a line. Initially, the walker localized at the origin of the line with arbitrary chirality, evolves to an asymptotic stationary state. In this stationary state a measurement is…

We explore a continuous-time quantum walk starting at a single vertex on the discrete path and cycle with a cubic nonlinearity. Such nonlinearities arise in Bose-Einstein condensates described by the Gross-Pitaevskii equation or by…
We investigate the impact of decoherence and static disorder on the dynamics of quantum particles moving in a periodic lattice. Our experiment relies on the photonic implementation of a one-dimensional quantum walk. The pure quantum…
We study the annihilating random walk with long-range interaction in one dimension. Each particle performs random walks on a one-dimensional ring in such a way that the probability of hopping toward the nearest particle is $W= [1 - \epsilon…
Since a limit distribution of a discrete-time quantum walk on the line was derived in 2002, a lot of limit theorems for quantum walks with a localized initial state have been reported. On the other hand, in quantum probability theory, there…
A new model maps a quantum random walk described by a Hadamard operator to a particular case of a birth and death process. The model is represented by a 2D Markov chain with a stochastic matrix, i.e., all the transition rates are positive,…
The dynamics of a three-state quantum walk with amplitude-dependent phase shifts is investigated. We consider two representative inputs whose linear evolution is known to display either full dispersion of the wave packet or intrinsic…
