Abstract
This comment is to correct the proof of optimality of quantum spatial search for Erd\H{o}s-R\'enyi graphs presented in `Spatial Search by Quantum Walk is Optimal for Almost all Graphs' (https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevLett.116.100501). The authors claim that if , then the CTQW-based search is optimal for almost all graphs. Below we point the issues found in the main paper, and propose corrections, which in fact improve the result to in case of transition rate . In the case of the proof for simplified transition rate we pointed a possible issue with applying perturbation theory.
