We analyze a continuous-time quantum walk on a chimera graph, which is a graph of choice for designing quantum annealers, and we discover beautiful quantum-walk features such as localization that starkly distinguishes classical from quantum…

For a quantum walk on a graph, there exist many kinds of operators for the discrete-time evolution. We give a general relation between the characteristic polynomial of the evolution matrix of a quantum walk on edges and that of a kind of…

A quantum walk is a time-homogeneous quantum-mechanical process on a graph defined by analogy to classical random walk. The quantum walker is a particle that moves from a given vertex to adjacent vertices in quantum superposition. Here we…

We perform the scattering analysis of the evolution operator of quantum walks with an anisotropic coin, and we prove a weak limit theorem for their asymptotic velocity. The quantum walks that we consider include one-defect models, two-phase…

We consider a position-dependent coined quantum walk on $\mathbb{Z}$ and assume that the coin operator $C(x)$ satisfies \[ \|C(x) - C_0 \| \leq c_1|x|^{-1-\epsilon}, \quad x \in \mathbb{Z} \] with positive $c_1$ and $\epsilon$ and $C_0 \in…

We consider a spectral analysis on the quantum walks on graph $G=(V,E)$ with the local coin operators $\{C_u\}_{u\in V}$ and the flip flop shift. The quantum coin operators have commonly two distinct eigenvalues $\kappa,\kappa'$ and…

We make and generalize the observation that summing of probability amplitudes of a discrete-time quantum walk over partitions of the walking graph consistent with the step operator results in a unitary evolution on the reduced graph which…

We propose a quantum walk defined by digraphs (mixed graphs). This is like Grover walk that is perturbed by a certain complex-valued function defined by digraphs. The discriminant of this quantum walk is a matrix that is a certain…

Quantum walks function as essential means to implement quantum simulators, allowing one to study complex and often directly inaccessible quantum processes in controllable systems. In this contribution, the notion of a driven Gaussian…

Unitary Coined Discrete-Time Quantum Walks (UC-DTQW) constitute a universal model of quantum computation, meaning that any computation done by a general purpose quantum computer can either be done using the UC-DTQW framework. In the last…
