- Abstract: The dynamical behaviour of the quantum state of different quantum spin
chains, with designed site dependent interaction strengths, is analyzed when
the initial state belongs to the one excitation subspace. It is shown that the
inhomogeneous chains are able to transfer excitations with near perfect
fidelity. This behaviour is found for two very different spin chain
Hamiltonians. The first one is the ferromagnetic Heisenberg Hamiltonian with
nearest neighbor interactions, the second one describes a chain with long range
anisotropic interactions which are ferromagnetic in the $z$ direction and
antiferromagnetic in the $(x,y)$ plane. It is shown that both designed chains
have in common a partially ordered spectrum and well localized eigenvectors.
This physical trait unifies the description of both kind of systems.

Haldane's seminal work established two fundamentally different types of excitation spectra for antiferromagnetic Heisenberg quantum spin chains.
In finite-length half-integer spin chains, quantization induces a gap in the excitation spectrum, with the upper bound given by the Lieb-Schulz-Mattis (LSM) theorem.
Here, we investigate the length-dependent excitations in spin-1/2 Heisenberg chains obtained by covalently linking olympicenes--Olympic rings shaped nanographenes carrying spin-1/2--into one-dimensional chains.

In the noninteracting case, quantized Thouless pumps can only occur when a topological singularity is encircled adiabatically.
In the presence of interactions, such topological transport can even persist for exotic paths in which the system gets arbitrarily close to the noninteracting singularity.

In a chain of 46 superconducting qubits, we study the probability distribution, $P(mathcalM)$, of the magnetization transferred across the chain's center.
The first two moments of $P(mathcalM)$ show superdiffusive behavior, a hallmark of KPZ.
The third and fourth moments rule out the KPZ conjecture and allow for evaluating other theories.

It is well-known that the transverse field Ising model shows a quantum phase transition (QPT) at zero temperature.
Under the quantum effects of a transverse magnetic field, classical hyperuniform spin chains are expected to lose their hyperuniformity.

The transition between the two cases is signaled by a discontinuity in the first derivative of the ground state energy.
