Here, we use the all-round framework of discrete-time quantum walks to study the onset of those events due to a random phase modulation, unveiling its long-tailed statistics, distribution profile, and dependence upon the degree of randomness. We find that those rogue waves belong the Gumbel family of extreme value distributions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-03-31T19:55:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "discrete-time quantum walks", "extreme value distributions", "rogue waves belong", "random phase modulation", "exceptional amplitude" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
