Parrondo's effects with aperiodic protocols

Marcelo A. Pires, Erveton P. Pinto, Rone N. da Silva +1

In this work, we study the effectiveness of employing archetypal aperiodic sequencing -- namely Fibonacci, Thue-Morse, and Rudin-Shapiro -- on the Parrondian effect. From a capital…

Quantum walks with spatiotemporal fractal disorder

Marcelo A. Pires, Caio B. Naves, Diogo O. Soares-Pinto +1

We investigate the transport and entanglement properties exhibited by quantum walks with coin operators concatenated in a space-time fractal structure. Inspired by recent developme…

Quantum walks in two dimensions: controlling directional spreading with entangling coins and tunable disordered step operator

Caio B. Naves, Marcelo A. Pires, Diogo O. Soares-Pinto +1

We study a 2-D disordered time-discrete quantum walk based on 1-D `generalized elephant quantum walk' where an entangling coin operator is assumed and which paves the way to a new…

Enhancing entanglement with the generalized elephant quantum walk from localized and delocalized states

Caio B. Naves, Marcelo A. Pires, Diogo O. Soares-Pinto +1

Recently, it was introduced a generalization of a nonstandard step operator named the elephant quantum walk (EQW). With proper statistical distribution for the steps, that generali…

Diffusion plays an unusual role in ecological quasi-neutral competition in metapopulations

Marcelo A. Pires, Nuno Crokidakis, Silvio M. Duarte Queirós

We investigate the phenomenology emerging from a 2-species dynamics under the scenario of a quasi-neutral competition within a metapopulation framework. We employ stochastic and de…

Negative correlations can play a positive role in disordered quantum walks

Marcelo A. Pires, Sílvio M. Duarte Queirós

We investigate the emerging properties of quantum walks with temporal disorder engineered from a binary Markov chain with tailored correlation, , and disorder strength, . We…

Hysteresis and disorder-induced order in continuous kinetic-like opinion dynamics in complex networks

A. L. Oestereich, M. A. Pires, S. M. Duarte Queirós +1

In this work we tackle a kinetic-like model of opinions dynamics in a networked population endued with a quenched plurality and polarization. Additionally, we consider pairwise int…

Quantum walks with sequential aperiodic jumps

Marcelo A. Pires, Sílvio M. Duarte Queirós

We analyze a set of discrete-time quantum walks for which the displacements on a chain follow binary aperiodic jumps according to three paradigmatic sequences: Fibonacci, Thue-Mors…
