Collection description
Manipulating the vector and spatial structure of light lies at the basis of the experimental simulation of quantum dynamics based on spin-orbit photonics. This thesis applies such a concept to the photonic implementation of prototypical evolutions known as quantum walks, with particular regard to their application to topological photonics. By leveraging the transverse momentum of light, this thesis introduces an optimized approach to the simulation of quantum walk dynamics in one and two spatial dimensions, overcoming the main limitations of standard photonic simulators. The optimization of optical process tomography supported by advanced numerical tools is also explored and applied to real experimental scenarios.
