Dephased quantum transport of excitations occurs when energetic fluctuations in a system are sufficient to suppress the built-up of coherent amplitudes. While this has been extensively studied in many different systems, a unified and…
Many disordered systems show a superdiffusive dynamics, intermediate between the diffusive one, typical of a classical stochastic process, and the so called ballistic behaviour, which is generally expected for the spreading in a quantum…
Any positive-energy state of a free Dirac particle that is initially highly-localized, evolves in time by spreading at speeds close to the speed of light. This general phenomenon is explained by the fact that the Dirac evolution can be…

Quantum walks are a well-established model for the study of coherent transport phenomena and provide a universal platform in quantum information theory. Dynamically influencing the walker's evolution gives a high degree of flexibility for…
The classicalization of a decoherent discrete-time quantum walk on a line or an n-cycle can be demonstrated in various ways that do not necessarily provide a geometry-independent description. For example, the position probability…
The conditional shift in the evolution operator of a quantum walk generates entanglement between the coin and position degrees of freedom. This entanglement can be quantified by the von Neumann entropy of the reduced density operator…
The behaviour of random quantum walks is known to be diffusive. Here we study discrete time quantum walks in weak stochastic gauge fields. In the case of position and spin dependent gauge field, we observe a transition from ballistic to…
