Abstract
We study a continous-time quantum walk on a path graph. In this paper, we show that, for any odd prime and positive integer , the path on vertices admits pretty good state transfer between vertices and for each that is a multiple of with respect to the quantum walk model determined by the XY-Hamiltonian. This gives the first examples of pretty good state transfer occurring between internal vertices on a path, when it does not occur between the extremal vertices.
