Description:
Author(s): Samuel Mugel, Alessio Celi, Pietro Massignan, János K. Asbóth, Maciej Lewenstein, and Carlos Lobo We suggest a method for engineering a quantum walk, with cold atoms as walkers, which presents topologically nontrivial properties. We derive the phase diagram, and show that we are able to produce a boundary between topologically distinct phases using the finite beam width of the applied lasers. A … [Phys. Rev.
