• Abstract: We have realized a quantum walk in momentum space with a rubidium spinor Bose-Einstein condensate by applying a periodic kicking potential as a walk operator and a resonant microwave pulse as a coin toss operator. The generated quantum walks appear to be stable for up to ten steps and then quickly transit to classical walks due to spontaneous emissions induced by laser beams of the walk operator. We investigate these quantum to classical walk transitions by introducing well controlled spontaneous emissions with an external light source during quantum walks. Our findings demonstrate a scheme to control the robustness of the quantum walks and can also be applied to other cold atom experiments involving spontaneous emissions.

  We investigate spontaneous emission in an atom optics kicked rotor quantum walk. We find, however, that spontaneous emission may induce asymmetries in an otherwise symmetric quantum walk. This highlights the potential for reinterpreting seemingly adverse effects as beneficial under certain conditions.

  We study a model of amplification of quantum transfer and making it directed which we call the quantum ratchet model. The ratchet effect is achieved in the quantum control model with dissipation and sink, where the Hamiltonian depends on vibrations in the energy difference synchronized with transitions between energy levels. Amplitude and frequency of the oscillating vibron together with the dephasing rate are the parameters of the quantum ratchet which determine its efficiency.

• Quantum walks on random lattices: Diffusion, localization and the absence of parametric quantum speed-up [0.0]
  We study propagation of quantum walks on percolation-generated two-dimensional random lattices. We show that even arbitrarily weak concentrations of randomly removed lattice sites give rise to a complete breakdown of the superdiffusive quantum speed-up. The fragility of quantum speed-up implies dramatic limitations for quantum information applications of quantum walks on random geometries and graphs.

  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.
