contents We investigate the dynamics of two identical spinless fermions on a one-dimensional lattice with open boundary conditions (OBC), subject to quasiperiodic long-range interactions. Using numerical exact diagonalization (ED), we study this non-integrable system as a continuous-time quantum walk and uncover a robust correlated dynamical regime. This regime, characterized by an approximately constant inter-particle distance, emerges under sufficiently strong quasiperiodic modulation of the long-range interactions. Further, the study shows that the behavior is determined by the nature of the interaction and the choice of boundary condition. Notably, by tuning the phase of the quasiperiodic modulation, we observe three distinct manifestations of this phenomenon: localization, nearest-neighbor separation oscillations, and next-nearest-neighbor separation transitions -- each arising for specific initial separations. Furthermore, we identify the suppression of entanglement entropy in the system, including instances of oscillatory behavior. Our results highlight how quasiperiodic long-range interactions shape few-body quantum dynamics.
