Universality at Breakdown of Quantum Transport on Complex Networks

Nikolaj Kulvelis, Maxim Dolgushev, Oliver Muelken

We consider single-particle quantum transport on parametrized complex networks. Based on general arguments regarding the spectrum of the corresponding Hamiltonian, we derive bounds…

Directed transport in quantum star graphs

Jambul Yusupov, Maxim Dolgushev, Alexander Blumen +1

We study the quantum dynamics of Gaussian wave packets on star graphs whose arms feature each a periodic potential and an external time-dependent field. Assuming that the potential…

Transport properties of continuous-time quantum walks on Sierpinski fractals

Zoltán Darázs, Anastasiia Anishchenko, Tamás Kiss +2

We model quantum transport, described by continuous-time quantum walks (CTQW), on deterministic Sierpinski fractals, differentiating between Sierpinski gaskets and Sierpinski carpe…

Geometrical aspects of quantum walks on random two-dimensional structures

Anastasiia Anishchenko, Alexander Blumen, Oliver Muelken

We study the transport properties of continuous-time quantum walks (CTQW) over finite two-dimensional structures with a given number of randomly placed bonds and with different asp…

Avoiding dark states in open quantum systems by tailored initial correlations

Piet Schijven, Oliver Muelken

We study the transport of excitations on a V-shaped network of three coupled two-level systems that are subjected to an environment that induces incoherent hopping between the node…

Enhancing the spreading of quantum walks on star graphs by additional bonds

Anastasiia Anishchenko, Alexander Blumen, Oliver Muelken

We study the dynamics of continuous-time quantum walks (CTQW) on networks with highly degenerate eigenvalue spectra of the corresponding connectivity matrices. In particular, we co…

Transport efficiency in topologically disordered networks with environmentally induced diffusion

Petrus Schijven, Johannes Kohlberger, Alexander Blumen +1

We study transport in topologically disordered networks that are subjected to an environment that induces classical diffusion. The dynamics is phenomenologically described within t…

Directed excitation transfer in vibrating chains by external fields

Oliver Muelken, Maximilian Bauer

We study the coherent dynamics of excitations on vibrating chains. By applying an external field and matching the field strength with the oscillation frequency of the chain it is p…

Environment-assisted quantum transport and trapping in dimers

Oliver Muelken, Tobias Schmid

We study the dynamics and trapping of excitations for a dimer with an energy off-set coupled to an external environment. Using a Lindblad quantum master equation approach, we c…

Quantum walk approach to search on fractal structures

Elena Agliari, Alexander Blumen, Oliver Muelken

We study continuous-time quantum walks mimicking the quantum search based on Grover's procedure. This allows us to consider structures, that is, databases, with arbitrary topologic…

Dissipative Dynamics with Trapping in Dimers

Oliver Muelken, Lothar Muehlbacher, Tobias Schmid +1

The trapping of excitations in systems coupled to an environment allows to study the quantum to classical crossover by different means. We show how to combine the phenomenological…

Continuous-Time Quantum Walks and Trapping

Elena Agliari, Oliver Muelken, Alexander Blumen

Recent findings suggest that processes such as the electronic energy transfer through the photosynthetic antenna display quantal features, aspects known from the dynamics of charge…
