Causal dynamics of discrete manifolds

Pablo Arrighi, Clément Chouteau, Stefano Facchini +1

We extend Cellular Automata to time-varying discrete geometries. In other words we formalize, and prove theorems about, the intuitive idea of a discrete manifold which evolves in t…

Quantum walking in curved spacetime: discrete metric

Pablo Arrighi, Giuseppe Di Molfetta, Stefano Facchini

A discrete-time quantum walk (QW) is essentially a unitary operator driving the evolution of a single particle on the lattice. Some QWs have familiar physics PDEs as their continuu…

Quantum walking in curved spacetime: dimensions, and beyond

Pablo Arrighi, Stefano Facchini

A discrete-time Quantum Walk (QW) is essentially an operator driving the evolution of a single particle on the lattice, through local unitaries. Some QWs admit a continuum limit, l…

Quantum walking in curved spacetime

Pablo Arrighi, Stefano Facchini, Marcelo Forets

A discrete-time Quantum Walk (QW) is essentially a unitary operator driving the evolution of a single particle on the lattice. Some QWs admit a continuum limit, leading to familiar…

Discrete Lorentz covariance for Quantum Walks and Quantum Cellular Automata

Pablo Arrighi, Stefano Facchini, Marcelo Forets

We formalize a notion of discrete Lorentz transforms for Quantum Walks (QW) and Quantum Cellular Automata (QCA), in (1 + 1)-dimensional discrete spacetime. The theory admits a diag…

Decoupled Quantum Walks, models of the Klein-Gordon and wave equations

Pablo Arrighi, Stefano Facchini

Decoupling a vectorial PDE consists in solving the system for each component, thereby obtaining scalar PDEs that prescribe the evolution of each component independently. We present…
