Quantum walks have attracted attention as a promising platform realizing topological phenomena and many physicists have introduced various types of indices to characterize topologically protected bound states that are robust against perturbations. In this paper, we introduce an index from a supersymmetric point of view. This allows us to define indices for all chiral symmetric quantum walks such as multi-dimensional split-step quantum walks and quantum walks on graphs, for which there has been no index theory. Moreover, the index gives a lower bound on the number of bound states robust against compact perturbations. We also calculate the index for several concrete examples including the unitary transformation that appears in Grovers search algorithm.

Given its importance to many other areas of physics, from condensed matter physics to thermodynamics, time-reversal symmetry has had relatively little influence on quantum information science. Here we develop a network-based picture of time-reversal
theory, classifying Hamiltonians and quantum circuits as time-symmetric or not in terms of the elements and geometries of their underlying networks. Many of the typical circuits of quantum information science are found to exhibit time-asymmetry. Moreover, we show that time-asymmetry in circuits can be controlled using local gates only, and can simulate time-asymmetry in Hamiltonian evolution. We experimentally implement a fundamental example in which controlled time-reversal asymmetry in a palindromic quantum circuit leads to near-perfect transport. Our results pave the way for using time-symmetry breaking to control coherent transport, and imply that time-asymmetry represents an omnipresent yet poorly understood effect in quantum information science.
We classify periodically driven quantum systems on a one-dimensional lattice, where the driving process is local and subject to a chiral symmetry condition. The analysis is in terms of the unitary operator at a half-period and also covers systems in
which this operator is implemented directly, and does not necessarily arise from a continuous time evolution. The full-period evolution operator is called a quantum walk, and starting the period at half time, which is called choosing another timeframe, leads to a second quantum walk. We assume that these walks have gaps at the spectral points $pm1$, up to at most finite dimensional eigenspaces. Walks with these gap properties have been completely classified by triples of integer indices (arXiv:1611.04439). These indices, taken for both timeframes, thus become classifying for half-step operators. In addition a further index quantity is required to classify the half step operators, which decides whether a continuous local driving process exists. In total, this amounts to a classification by five independent indices. We show how to compute these as Fredholm indices of certain chiral block operators, show the completeness of the classification, and clarify the relations to the two sets of walk indices. Within this theory we prove bulk-edge correspondence, where second timeframe allows to distinguish between symmetry protected edge states at $+1$ and $-1$ which is not possible with only one timeframe. We thus resolve an apparent discrepancy between our above mentioned index classification for walks, and indices defined (arXiv:1208.2143). The discrepancy turns out to be one of different definitions of the term `quantum walk.
Chirally symmetric discrete-time quantum walks possess supersymmetry, and their Witten indices can be naturally defined. The Witten index gives a lower bound for the number of topologically protected bound states. The purpose of this paper is to give
a complete classification of the Witten index associated with a one-dimensional split-step quantum walk. It turns out that the Witten index of this model exhibits striking similarity to the one associated with a Dirac particle in supersymmetric quantum mechanics.
We give a new determinant expression for the characteristic polynomial of the bond scattering matrix of a quantum graph G. Also, we give a decomposition formula for the characteristic polynomial of the bond scattering matrix of a regular covering of
G. Furthermore, we define an L-function of G, and give a determinant expression of it. As a corollary, we express the characteristic polynomial of the bond scattering matrix of a regular covering of G by means of its L-functions. As an application, we introduce three types of quantum graph walks, and treat their relation.
In this paper we consider Schr{o}dinger operators on $M times mathbb{Z}^{d_2}$, with $M={M_{1}, ldots, M_{2}}^{d_1}$ (`quantum wave guides) with a `$Gamma$-trimmed random potential, namely a potential which vanishes outside a subset $Gamma$ which is
periodic with respect to a sub lattice. We prove that (under appropriate assumptions) for strong disorder these operators have emph{pure point spectrum } outside the set $Sigma_{0}=sigma(H_{0,Gamma^{c}})$ where $H_{0,Gamma^{c}} $ is the free (discrete) Laplacian on the complement $Gamma^{c} $ of $Gamma $. We also prove that the operators have some emph{absolutely continuous spectrum} in an energy region $mathcal{E}subsetSigma_{0}$. Consequently, there is a mobility edge for such models. We also consider the case $-M_{1}=M_{2}=infty$, i.~e.~ $Gamma $-trimmed operators on $mathbb{Z}^{d}=mathbb{Z}^{d_1}timesmathbb{Z}^{d_2}$. Again, we prove localisation outside $Sigma_{0} $ by showing exponential decay of the Green function $G_{E+ieta}(x,y) $ uniformly in $eta>0 $. For emph{all} energies $Einmathcal{E}$ we prove that the Greens function $G_{E+ieta} $ is emph{not} (uniformly) in $ell^{1}$ as $eta$ approaches $0$. This implies that neither the fractional moment method nor multi scale analysis emph{can} be applied here.
