We consider the phase transition in the system of n simultaneously developing random walks on the halfline x>=0. All walks are independent on each others in all points except the origin x=0, where the point well is located. The well depth…
A dynamical signature of localization in quantum systems is the absence of transport which is governed by the amount of coherence that configuration space states possess with respect to the Hamiltonian eigenbasis. To make this observation…

Random quantum circuits take an input quantum state and randomize it. This is a task with a growing number of identified uses in quantum information processing. We suggest a scheme to implement random circuits in a weighted graph state. The…

Quantum phase transitions occur at zero temperature and involve the appearance of long-range correlations. These correlations are not due to thermal fluctuations but to the intricate structure of a strongly entangled ground state of the…
A Gaussian variational approximation is often used to study interfaces in random media. By considering the 1+1 dimensional directed polymer in a random medium, it is shown here that the variational Ansatz typically leads to a negative…
