The walker launches off at a localized state and its system is operated by a spatially periodic Hamiltonian. As a result, we see an asymmetry probability distribution. To catch a long-time behavior, we also try to find a long-time limit theorem and realize that the limit distribution holds a symmetry density function.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2023-04-13T13:02:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "continuous-time quantum walk", "asymmetry probability distribution", "long-time limit theorem", "limit distribution holds", "symmetry density function" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 15, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
