• Abstract: We investigate quantum superposition effects in two-dimensional quantum walks of identical particles with different statistics under particle exchange, starting from various different initial configurations. To characterize inter-particle correlation dynamics, we focus on joint properties such as two-particle coincidence probabilities and the spread velocity of the inter-particle distance. Regarding spatial modes as an environment for the particles internal degrees of freedom, we study the role played by the particle statistics using standard entanglement witnesses, showing that particles possessing fermionic statistics are more resistant to thermalize with their environment. We analyze the presence of multipartite entanglement in the system's degrees of freedom through the Quantum Fisher Information, revealing that fermionic states generated during the walk are better suited to perform quantum metrology tasks. Finally, we discuss the potential for implementing this model using integrated photonic circuits by exploiting $N$-partite entanglement between individual photons.

• Optimization for the propagation of a multiparticle quantum walk in a one-dimensional lattice [0.0]
  It has been known that a single particle can be propagated by a discrete-time quantum walk with a quadratic time scaling in the variance of position distribution, beating the linear time scaling in a classical random walk.<n>We study the evolution of position distribution for multiple particles in the long-time limit, and analytically optimize the joint coin state to derive the maximum variance of the position distribution between the particles.<n>An interesting result is that an optimized coin state always possesses specific exchange symmetry which can be characterized by a graph consisting of two disconnected complete subgraphs.

  One of the hallmarks of interacting systems is the formation of multi-particle bound states. We develop a high fidelity parameterizable fSim gate that implements the periodic quantum circuit of the spin-1/2 XXZ model. By placing microwave photons in adjacent qubit sites, we study the propagation of these excitations and observe their bound nature for up to 5 photons.

  We use parametric down-conversion in an integrated semiconductor chip to generate biphoton states simulating anyonic particle statistics. Our scheme exploits the frequency entanglement of the photon pairs, which is directly controlled through the spatial shaping of the pump beam. These results, demonstrated at room temperature and telecom wavelength on a chip-integrated platform, pave the way to the practical implementation of quantum simulation tasks with tailored particle statistics.

  We propose applying time-dependent photo-emission spectroscopy, an established tool in solid state systems, in cold atom quantum simulators. We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.

  Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect can lead to a perfect suppression of two-particle coincidences between the output ports of a balanced beam splitter. In this work, we demonstrate experimentally that the two-particle coincidence statistics of two bosons can instead be seamlessly tuned to substantial enhancement. Our findings reveal a new approach to harnessing non-Hermitian settings for the manipulation of multi-particle quantum states.
