• Abstract: The behaviour of random quantum walks is known to be diffusive. Here we study discrete time quantum walks in weak stochastic gauge fields. In the case of position and spin dependent gauge field, we observe a transition from ballistic to diffusive motion, with the probability distribution becoming Gaussian. However, in contradiction to common belief, weak stochastic electric gauge fields reveal the persistence of Bloch oscillations despite decoherence which we demonstrate on simulations and prove analytically. The proposed models provide insights into the interplay between randomness and coherent dynamics of quantum walks.

  We argue that for uniformly accelerated open systems, the formalism must breakdown as we move from a Fock representation of the quantum noise to a unitarily inequivalent non-Fock representation. The unitary inequivalence ultimately being a consequence of the underlying flat noise spectrum approximation for the fundamental quantum processes.

  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.

  We show that the Zitterbewegung effect manifests itself as a series of quantum beats of the particle density in the long-time limit. We also find a time-domain where the particle density of the point source is governed by the propagation of a main wavefront. The relative positions of these wavefronts are used to investigate the time-delay of quantum waves in the Klein-tunneling regime.
