Graph states are multi-particle entangled states that correspond to mathematical graphs, where the vertices of the graph take the role of quantum spin systems and edges represent Ising interactions. They are many-body spin states of…
The graph isomorphism problem is theoretically interesting and also has many practical applications. The best known classical algorithms for graph isomorphism all run in time super-polynomial in the size of the graph in the worst case. An…
We study how quantum walks can be used to find structural anomalies in graphs via several examples. Two of our examples are based on star graphs, graphs with a single central vertex to which the other vertices, which we call external…
We investigate spectral properties of Kirchhoff Laplacians on radially symmetric antitrees. This class of metric graphs enjoys a rich group of symmetries, which enables us to obtain a decomposition of the corresponding Laplacian into the…
We address the "inverse problem" for discrete geometry, which consists in determining whether, given a discrete structure of a type that does not in general imply geometrical information or even a topology, one can associate with it a…
We summarize different approaches to the theory of quantum graphs and provide several ways to construct concrete examples. First, we classify all undirected quantum graphs on the quantum space $M_2$. Secondly, we apply the theory of…
A fundamental problem is to understand why quantum theory only violates some noncontextuality (NC) inequalities and identify the physical principles that prevent higher-than-quantum violations. We prove that quantum theory only violates…
A general treatment of the spectral problem of quantum graphs and tight-binding models in finite Hilbert spaces is given. The direct spectral problem and the inverse spectral problem are written in terms of simple algebraic equations…
The symmetries of a finite graph are described by its automorphism group; in the setting of Woronowicz's quantum groups, a notion of a quantum automorphism group has been defined by Banica capturing the quantum symmetries of the graph. In…
We quantize graphs (networks) which consist of a finite number of bonds and vertices. We show that the spectral statistics of fully connected graphs is well reproduced by random matrix theory. We also define a classical phase space for the…
We study the point spectrum of a periodic quantum tree equipped with a Schr\"odinger type differential operator with delta-type vertex conditions, using subsets of the compact graph that generates the tree. We prove analogs of existing…
Quantum walks on graphs have shown prioritized benefits and applications in wide areas. In some scenarios, however, it may be more natural and accurate to mandate high-order relationships for hypergraphs, due to the density of information…
We address the question of symmetries of an important type of quantum walks. We introduce all the necessary definitions and provide a rigorous formulation of the problem. Using a thorough analysis, we reach the complete answer by presenting…
During the last years quantum graphs have become a paradigm of quantum chaos with applications from spectral statistics to chaotic scattering and wave function statistics. In the first part of this review we give a detailed introduction to…
We review quantum chaos on graphs. We construct a unitary operator which represents the quantum evolution on the graph and study its spectral and wavefunction statistics. This operator is the analogue of the classical evolution operator on…
Kirchhoff showed that the number of spanning trees of a graph is the spectral determinant of the combinatorial Laplacian divided by the number of vertices; we reframe this result in the quantum graph setting. We prove that the spectral…
We investigate the spectral properties of chaotic quantum graphs. We demonstrate that the `energy'--average over the spectrum of individual graphs can be traded for the functional average over a supersymmetric non--linear $\sigma$--model…
We study the problem of determining the distribution of vertices of a particular given type in the set of all Feynman tree graphs in quantum field theories. We show that in almost all cases a Gaussian distribution arises asymptotically, and…
In this Thesis, we study the behavior of spectral curves of quantum graphs under certain families of vertex conditions, called the $\delta_s$ family, which we define in this work. We focus on studying two main quantities related to the…
The graph isomorphism problem is a main problem which has numerous applications in different fields. Thus, finding an efficient and easy to implement method to discriminate non-isomorphic graphs is valuable. In this paper, a new method is…
