Absence of ballistic motion and presence of almost-ballistic motion for unitary operators with pure point spectrum

Christopher Cedzich, Jake Fillman, Luis Velázquez

We adapt two results of Simon and collaborators to the setting of discrete-time unitary dynamics. We show that pure point spectrum precludes ballistic motion, and exhibit a family…

Exponential Suppression of Transport in Electric Quantum Walks

Houssam Abdul-Rahman, Christopher Cedzich, Günter Stolz +1

We establish exact scalings for the maximal group velocity of translation-invariant quantum walks in periodic electric fields. Our main result shows that the maximal group velocity…

Observation of Metal-Insulator and Spectral Phase Transitions in Aubry-André-Harper Models

Quan Lin, Christopher Cedzich, Qi Zhou +1

Non-Hermitian extensions of the Aubry-André-Harper (AAH) model reveal a rich variety of phase transitions arising from the interplay of quasiperiodicity and non-Hermiticity. Despit…

Twenty dry Martinis for the Unitary Almost Mathieu Operator

Christopher Cedzich, Long Li

We solve the Dry Ten Martini Problem for the unitary almost Mathieu operator with Diophantine frequencies in the non-critical regime.

Mobility edges in pseudo-unitary quasiperiodic quantum walks

Christopher Cedzich, Jake Fillman

We introduce a Floquet quasicrystal that simulates the motion of Bloch electrons in a homogeneous magnetic field in discrete time steps. We admit the hopping to be non-reciprocal w…

Exponential tail estimates for quantum lattice dynamics

Christopher Cedzich, Alain Joye, Albert H. Werner +1

We consider the quantum dynamics of a particle on a lattice for large times. Assuming translation invariance, and either discrete or continuous time parameter, the distribution of…
