In this paper we focus our attention on a particle that follows a unidirectional quantum walk, an alternative version of the nowadays widespread discrete-time quantum walk on a line. Here the walker at each time step can either remain in…
A single Weyl fermion, which is prohibited in static lattice systems by the Nielsen-Ninomiya theorem, is shown to be realized in a periodically driven three-dimensional lattice system with a topologically nontrivial Floquet unitary…
Non-Hermitian topological edge states have many intriguing properties, but have so far mainly been discussed in terms of bulk-boundary correspondence. Here we propose to use a bulk property of diffusion coefficients for probing the…
We report a theoretical study of the linear and nonlinear dynamics of edge excitations of an integer quantum Hall state of non-interacting fermions. New features beyond the chiral Luttinger liquid picture are anticipated to arise from the…
Time periodic driving serves not only as a convenient way to engineer effective Hamiltonians, but also as a means to produce intrinsically dynamical phases that do not exist in the static limit. A recent example of the latter are 2D chiral…
A continuous-time quantum walk (CTQW) is sedentary if the return probability in the starting vertex is close to one at all times. Recent results imply that, when starting from a maximal degree vertex, the CTQW dynamics generated by the…
Recently, effects of nonlinearity on topologically nontrivial systems have attracted attention and the stability of topologically protected edge states has been studied for a quantum walk with nonlinear effects, which is akin to…
We formulate a one-dimensional flux-controlled anomalous Floquet quantum walk and show that it admits a direct microscopic realization in a driven bipartite lattice. The walk consists of a coin-dependent drift step and a momentum-dependent…
We construct a many-body quantized invariant that sharply distinguishes among two dimensional non-equilibrium driven phases of interacting fermions. This is an interacting generalization of a band-structure Floquet quasi-energy winding…
Manipulation of quantum systems is the basis for many promising quantum technologies. However, how quantum mechanical principles can be used to manipulate the dynamics of quantum dissipative systems remains unanswered because of strong…
Localization may survive in periodically driven (Floquet) quantum systems, but is generally unstable for aperiodic drives. In this work, we identify a hidden conservation law originating from a chiral symmetry in a disordered spin-1/2 XX…
We propose a bulk topological invariant for one-dimensional Floquet systems with chiral symmetry which quantifies the particle transport on each sublattice during the evolution. This chiral flow is physically motivated, locally computable,…
Quantum random walks are shown to have non-intuitive dynamics which makes them an attractive area of study for devising quantum algorithms for long-standing open problems as well as those arising in the field of quantum computing. In the…
Quantum walks subject to decoherence generically suffer the loss of their genuine quantum feature, a quadratically faster spreading compared to classical random walks. This intuitive statement has been verified analytically for certain…
When confined to a topological environment consisting of a cycle coupled with a half-line, quantum walks exhibit long-term statistical tendencies which differ dramatically from the tendencies of classical random walks in the same…
Non-Hermiticity significantly enriches the properties of topological models, leading to exotic features such as the non-Hermitian skin effects and non-Bloch bulk-boundary correspondence that have no counterparts in Hermitian settings. Its…
