For irrational magnetic flux, the spectrum of the two-dimensional Hadamard magnetic quantum walk is a zero-measure Cantor set and the walk has no pure point spectrum, so the spectrum is purely singular continuous.

abstract
We study a natural construction of a general class of inhomogeneous quantum walks (namely walks whose transition probabilities depend on position). Within the class we analyze walks that are periodic in position and show that, depending on the period, such walks can be bounded or unbounded in time; in the latter case we analyze the asymptotic speed. We compare the construction to others in the existing literature. As an example we give a quantum version of a non-irreducible classical walk: the Polya Urn.

Singular continuous Cantor spectrum for magnetic quantum walks
For irrational magnetic flux, the spectrum of the two-dimensional Hadamard magnetic quantum walk is a zero-measure Cantor set and the walk has no pure point spectrum, so the spectrum is purely singular continuous.
