- Abstract summary: We show that a genuine Parrondo paradox can emerge in two-state quantum walks without resorting to experimentally intricate high-dimensional coins.
To achieve such goal we employ a time-dependent coin operator without breaking the translation spatial invariance of the system.

Parrondo's paradox is a phenomenon where a combination of losing strategies becomes a winning strategy.
Unlike traditional quantum steps that allow for equal magnitude forward and backward strides based on the outcome of the coin-toss, the steps employed here permit the strides to be of unequal magnitude.

We study phase transitions occurring in the stationary state of the dynamics of integrable many-body non-Hermitian Hamiltonians.
We observe that the entanglement phase transitions occurring in the stationary state have the same nature as that occurring in the vacuum of the non-hermitian Hamiltonian.

In particular, we have in mind an experimental realisation with a Bose-Einstein condensate in which the walker's space is momentum space.
We study time-dependent phase fluctuations of the coins as well as perturbations arising from the finite momentum width of the condensate.
We confirm the visibility of Parrondo's paradox for experimentally available time scales of up to a few hundred steps of the walk.

We show that it is neither necessary nor sufficient for the Poisson bracket between the time variable and the super-Hamiltonian to be equal to unity in all of the phase space.
We also discuss the question of switching between different internal times as well as the Montevideo interpretation of quantum theory.

We construct a two-dimensional coinless quantum walk to simulate second-order topological insulator with zero-dimensional corner states.
We show that both of the corner and edge states can be observed through the probability distribution of the walker.
We propose a possible experimental implementation to realize this discrete-time quantum walk in a three-dimensional integrated photonic circuits.
