Pretty good state transfer in networks of qubits occurs when a continuous-time quantum walk allows the transmission of a qubit state from one node of the network to another, with fidelity arbitrarily close to 1. We prove that in a…

We prove that the only trees that admit perfect state transfer according to the adjacency matrix model are $P_2$ and $P_3$. This answers a question first asked by Godsil in 2012 and proves a conjecture by Coutinho and Liu from 2015.

For $q\in\mathbb{R}\backslash\{0\}$, the generalized Laplacian of a graph $X$ is the matrix $\mathscr{L}=\Delta+qA$, where $\Delta$ is the degree matrix and $A$ is the adjacency matrix of $X$. In this paper, we investigate perfect state…

We provide a characterization of perfect state transfer in a quantum walk whose Hamiltonian is given by the normalized Laplacian. We discuss a connection between classical random walks and quantum walks only present in this model, and we…

We consider quantum state transfer relative to the Laplacian matrix of a graph. Let $N(u)$ denote the set of all neighbors of a vertex $u$ in a graph $G$. A pair of vertices $u$ and $v$ are called twin vertices of $G$ provided…

For any graph $X$ with the adjacency matrix $A$, the transition matrix of the continuous-time quantum walk at time $t$ is given by the matrix-valued function $\mathcal{H}_X(t)=\mathrm{e}^{itA}$. We say that there is perfect state transfer…

We prove that the corona product of two graphs has no Laplacian perfect state transfer whenever the first graph has at least two vertices. This complements a result of Coutinho and Liu who showed that no tree of size greater than two has…

The study of perfect state transfer on graphs has attracted a great deal of attention during the past ten years because of its applications to quantum information processing and quantum computation. Perfect state transfer is understood to…

Let A be the adjacency matrix of a graph $X$ and suppose U(t)=exp(itA). We view A as acting on $\cx^{V(X)}$ and take the standard basis of this space to be the vectors $e_u$ for $u$ in $V(X)$. Physicists say that we have perfect state…

The $\mathcal{Q}$-graph of a graph $G$, denoted by $\mathcal{Q}(G)$, is the graph derived from $G$ by plugging a new vertex to each edge of $G$ and adding a new edge between two new vertices which lie on adjacent edges of $G$. In this…

In 2018, Chen and Godsil proposed the concept of Laplacian perfect pair state transfer which is a brilliant generalization of Laplacian perfect state transfer. In this paper, we study the existence of Laplacian perfect pair state transfer…

It has been asked whether there are trees other than $P_2$ and $P_3$ which can admit perfect state transfers. In this note we show that the answer is negative.

Perfect state transfer between qubits on a uniformly coupled network, with interactions specified by a graph, has advantages over an engineered chain, such as much faster transfer times (independent of the distance between the input and…

Perfect transfer of a quantum state through a one-dimensional chain is now well understood, allowing one not only to decide whether a fixed Hamiltonian achieves perfect transfer, but to design a suitable one. We are particularly interested…

We construct families of graphs from linear groups $\mathrm{SL}(2,q)$, $\mathrm{GL}(2,q)$ and $\mathrm{GU}(2,q^2)$, where $q$ is an odd prime power, with the property that the continuous-time quantum walks on the associated networks of…

Let $G$ be a graph with adjacency matrix $A$. The transition matrix of $G$ relative to $A$ is defined by $H_{A}(t):=\exp{(-itA)},\;t\in\Rl$. We say that the graph $G$ admits perfect state transfer between the verteices $u$ and $v$ at…

Let $X$ be a graph on $n$ vertices with with adjacency matrix $A$ and let $H(t)$ denote the matrix-valued function $\exp(iAt)$. If $u$ and $v$ are distinct vertices in $X$, we say perfect state transfer from $u$ to $v$ occurs if there is a…

In a one-dimensional Heisenberg chain, we show that there are no sets of coupling strengths such that the evolution perfectly transfers a quantum state between the two ends of the chain without the addition of magnetic fields. In lieu of…

The ability to accurately transfer quantum information through networks is an important primitive in distributed quantum systems. While perfect quantum state transfer (PST) can be effected by a single particle undergoing continuous-time…
