• Abstract summary: We study the dynamical localization of discrete time evolution of topological split-step quantum random walk (QRW) on a single-site defect. By investigating the spectral properties of the discrete-time evolution operators, we show that trapped states have large overlap with the initial uniformly distributed state. We show that mechanism of localization we identified is robust against the influence of disorder.

• Abstract: We study the dynamical localization of discrete time evolution of topological split-step quantum random walk (QRW) on a single-site defect starting from a uniform distribution. Using analytical and numerical calculations, we determine the high localization probability regions in the parameter space of the quantum walker. These regions contain two or more pairs of trapped states, forming near a lattice defect. By investigating the spectral properties of the discrete-time evolution operators, we show that these trapped states have large overlap with the initial uniformly distributed state, thus offering a simple interpretation of the localization effect. As this localization scheme could be interpreted as a variation of spatial quantum search algorithm, we compare the localization probability and time with other types of two-dimensional quantum walks that do not have topological phases and realize localization time scaling similar to Grover's algorithm. Finally we show that mechanism of localization we identified is robust against the influence of disorder.

  We study the dynamical quantum phase transition in integrable and non-integrable Ising chains. The non-analyticities in the quantum distance between two subsystem density matrices identify the critical time. We propose a distance measure from the upper bound of the local quantum fidelity for certain quench protocols.

  Signatures of localization have been observed in condensed matter and cold atomic systems. We propose a model of one-dimensional chain of non-interacting, spinless fermions coupled to a local ensemble of baths. We show that the steady state of the system undergoes a localization entanglement phase transition by tuning $p$ which remains stable in the presence of coherent hopping.

We identify different regimes of their evolution depending on the values of the field mass and the quench regularization parameter. We also investigate the local quenches in massive scalar field theory on a cylinder and show that they cause an erratic and chaotic-like evolution of observables.

  We present a theory of localisation in quasiperiodic chains with nearest-neighbour hoppings, based on the convergence of local propagators. Analysing the convergence of these continued fractions, localisation or its absence can be determined, yielding in turn the critical points and mobility edges. Results are exemplified by analysing the theory for three quasiperiodic models covering a range of behaviour.

  Quantum computing may offer the opportunity to simulate strongly-interacting field theories, such as quantum chromodynamics, with physical time evolution. As with present-day calculations, quantum computation strategies still require the restriction to a finite system size. We quantify the volume effects for various $1+1$D Minkowski-signature quantities and show that these can be a significant source of systematic uncertainty.

• Topological delocalization in the completely disordered two-dimensional quantum walk [0.0]
  We investigate the effect of spatial disorder on two-dimensional split-step discrete-time quantum walks with two internal "coin" states. We find that spatial disorder of the most general type, i.e., position-dependent Haar random coin operators, does not lead to Anderson localization but to a diffusive spread instead. This is a delocalization, which happens because disorder places the quantum walk to a critical point between different anomalous Floquet-Anderson insulating topological phases.
