Implementation Scheme: (a) One pattern of a dynamically
changing graph with 3 sites used in the experiment (shown explicitly for
3 steps). The full set of patterns used in the experiment is denoted by
K'n for n steps. The input state (blue arrow) is evolved (red arrow) and
measured tomographically at every step. (b) Implementation scheme of the
example, the R and T operators are represented by filled and hollow
diamonds, respectively. (c) Setup scheme of the time-multiplexed PQW.
According to the implementation scheme the walker always alternates
between paths A and B. The colour coding is used to mark corresponding
entities in both panels. We average over all patterns to obtain the open
system’s dynamics.

The aim for understanding transport phenomena is at the heart of many studies on processes in nature and man-made structures ranging from photosynthesis to information network applications. Recent research indicates that the combination of classical with quantum effects can explain or introduce highly unexpected behaviour of the overall system. In order to understand quantum transport processes on a random or…
