We present a unifying variational calculus derivation of Groverian geodesics for both quantum state vectors and quantum probability amplitudes. In the first case, we show that horizontal affinely parametrized geodesic paths on the Hilbert space of normalized vectors emerge from the minimization of the length specified by the Fubini-Study metric on the manifold of Hilbert space rays. In the second case, we demonstrate that geodesic paths for probability amplitudes arise by minimizing the length expressed in terms of the Fisher information. In both derivations, we find that geodesic equations are described by simple harmonic oscillators (SHOs). However, while in the first derivation the frequency of oscillations is proportional to the (constant) energy dispersion of the Hamiltonian system, in the second derivation the frequency of oscillations is proportional to the square-root of the (constant) Fisher information. Interestingly, by setting these two frequencies equal to each other, we recover the well-known Anandan-Aharonov relation linking the squared speed of evolution of an Hamiltonian system with its energy dispersion. Finally, upon transitioning away from the quantum setting, we discuss the universality of the emergence of geodesic motion of SHO type in the presence of conserved quantities by analyzing two specific phenomena of gravitational and thermodynamical origin, respectively.

We consider planar quadrangulations with three marked vertices and discuss the geometry of triangles made of three geodesic paths joining them. We also study the geometry of minimal separating loops, i.e. paths of minimal length among all closed path
s passing by one of the three vertices and separating the two others in the quadrangulation. We concentrate on the universal scaling limit of large quadrangulations, also known as the Brownian map, where pairs of geodesic paths or minimal separating loops have common parts of non-zero macroscopic length. This is the phenomenon of confluence, which distinguishes the geometry of random quadrangulations from that of smooth surfaces. We characterize the universal probability distribution for the lengths of these common parts.
We propose a method to obtain optimal protocols for adiabatic ground-state preparation near the adiabatic limit, extending earlier ideas from [D. A. Sivak and G. E. Crooks, Phys. Rev. Lett. 108, 190602 (2012)] to quantum non-dissipative systems. The
space of controllable parameters of isolated quantum many-body systems is endowed with a Riemannian quantum metric structure, which can be exploited when such systems are driven adiabatically. Here, we use this metric structure to construct optimal protocols in order to accomplish the task of adiabatic ground-state preparation in a fixed amount of time. Such optimal protocols are shown to be geodesics on the parameter manifold, maximizing the local fidelity. Physically, such protocols minimize the average energy fluctuations along the path. Our findings are illustrated on the Landau-Zener model and the anisotropic XY spin chain. In both cases we show that geodesic protocols drastically improve the final fidelity. Moreover, this happens even if one crosses a critical point, where the adiabatic perturbation theory fails.
This work is devoted to show an equivalent description for the most probable transition paths of stochastic dynamical systems with Brownian noise, based on the theory of Markovian bridges. The most probable transition path for a stochastic dynamical
system is the minimizer of the Onsager-Machlup action functional, and thus determined by the Euler-Lagrange equation (a second order differential equation with initial-terminal conditions) via a variational principle. After showing that the Onsager-Machlup action functional can be derived from a Markovian bridge process, we first demonstrate that, in some special cases, the most probable transition paths can be determined by first order deterministic differential equations with only a initial condition. Then we show that for general nonlinear stochastic systems with small noise, the most probable transition paths can be well approximated by solving a first order differential equation or an integro differential equation on a certain time interval. Finally, we illustrate our results with several examples.
We connect the Grover walk with sinks to the Grover walk with tails. The survival probability of the Grover walk with sinks in the long time limit is characterized by the centered generalized eigenspace of the Grover walk with tails. The centered eig
enspace of the Grover walk is the attractor eigenspace of the Grover walk with sinks. It is described by the persistent eigenspace of the underlying random walk whose support has no overlap to the boundaries of the graph and combinatorial flow in the graph theory.
We introduce an algebraic system which can be used as a model for spaces with geodesic paths between any two of their points. This new algebraic structure is based on the notion of mobility algebra which has recently been introduced as a model for th
e unit interval of real numbers. Mobility algebras consist on a set $A$ together with three constants and a ternary operation. In the case of the closed unit interval $A=[0,1]$, the three constants are 0, 1 and 1/2 while the ternary operation is $p(x,y,z)=x-yx+yz$. A mobility space is a set $X$ together with a map $qcolon{Xtimes Atimes Xto X}$ with the meaning that $q(x,t,y)$ indicates the position of a particle moving from point $x$ to point $y$ at the instant $tin A$, along a geodesic path within the space $X$. A mobility space is thus defined with respect to a mobility algebra, in the same way as a module is defined over a ring. We introduce the axioms for mobility spaces, investigate the main properties and give examples. We also establish the connection between the algebraic context and the one of spaces with geodesic paths. The connection with affine spaces is briefly mentioned.
