SCATTERING AND INVERSE SCATTERING FOR NONLINEAR QUANTUM WALKS

We study large time behavior of quantum walks (QWs) with self-dependent (nonlinear) coin. In particular, we show scattering and derive the reproducing formula for inverse scattering in the weak nonlinear regime. The proof is based on space-time estimate of (linear) QWs such as dispersive estimates and Strichartz estimate. Such argument is standard in the study of nonlinear Schrodinger equations and discrete nonlinear Schrodinger equations but it seems to be the first time to be applied to QWs.
