Stationary measure for two-state space-inhomogeneous quantum walk in one dimension

Hikari Kawai, Takashi KOMATSU, Norio Konno

We consider the two-state space-inhomogeneous coined quantum walk (QW) in one dimension. For a general setting, we obtain the stationary measure of the QW by solving the eigenvalue problem. As a corollary, stationary measures of the multi-defect model and space-homogeneous QW are derived. The former is a generalization of the previous works on one-defect model and the latter is a generalization of the result given by Konno and Takei (2015).

Localization of space-inhomogeneous three-state quantum walks

Chusei Kiumi

Abstract Mathematical analysis on the existence of eigenvalues is essential because it is deeply related to localization, which is an exceptionally crucial property of quantum walks (QWs). We construct the method for the eigenvalue problem via the transfer matrix for space-inhomogeneous three-state QWs in one dimension with a self-loop, which is an extension of the technique in a previous study (Kiumi and Saito 2021 Quantum Inf. Process. 20 171). This method reveals the necessary and sufficient condition for the eigenvalue problem of a two-phase three-state QW with one defect whose time evolution varies in the negative part, positive part, and at the origin.

One-dimensional three-state quantum walks: Weak limits and localization

Chul Ki Ko, Etsuo Segawa, Hyun Jae Yoo

We investigate one-dimensional three-state quantum walks. We find a formula for the moments of the weak limit distribution via a vacuum expectation of powers of a self-adjoint operator. We use this formula to fully characterize the localization of three-state quantum walks in one dimension. The localization is also characterized by investing the eigenvectors of the evolution operator for the quantum walk. As a byproduct we clarify the concepts of localization differently used in the literature. We also study the continuous part of the limit distribution. For typical examples we show that the continuous part is the same kind as that of two-state quantum walks. We provide with explicit expressions for the density of the weak limits of some three-state quantum walks.
