Abstract
We identify a mapping between two-dimensional (2D) electron transport in a minimally twisted graphene bilayer and a one-dimensional (1D) quantum walk, where one spatial dimension plays the role of time. In this mapping, a magnetic field perpendicular to the bilayer maps onto an electric field. Bloch oscillations due to the periodic motion in a 1D Bloch band can then be observed in purely DC transport as magnetoconductance oscillations with periodicity set by the Bloch frequency.
