The so-called welded tree problem provides an example of a black-box problem that can be solved exponentially faster by a quantum walk than by any classical algorithm. Given the name of a special ENTRANCE vertex, a quantum walk can find…
We discuss a particular kind of quantum walk on a general graph. We affix two semi-infinite lines to a general finite graph, which we call tails. On the tails, the particle making the walk simply advances one unit at each time step, so that…
There are presently two models for quantum walks on graphs. The "coined" walk uses discrete time steps, and contains, besides the particle making the walk, a second quantum system, the coin, that determines the direction in which the…
We study quantum walks on general graphs from the point of view of scattering theory. For a general finite graph we choose two vertices and attach one half line to each. We are interested in walks that proceed from one half line, through…
In this article, we propose a quantum communication protocol via 2-step discrete time quantum walks with two coins on a graph of 10 vertices containing both cycles and paths. Quantum walks are known for their ability to integrate quantum…
Quantum walks, being the quantum analogue of classical random walks, are expected to provide a fruitful source of quantum algorithms. A few such algorithms have already been developed, including the `glued trees' algorithm, which provides…
Nature of quantum walk in presence of multiple marked state has been studied by Nahimovs and Rivosh \cite{10.1007/978-3-662-49192-8_31}. They have shown that if the marked states are arranged in a $\sqrt{k} \times \sqrt{k}$ cluster in a…
Quantum spatial search has been widely studied with most of the study focusing on quantum walk algorithms. We show that quantum walk algorithms are extremely sensitive to systematic errors. We present a recursive algorithm which offers…
Quantum walks are at the heart of modern quantum technologies. They allow to deal with quantum transport phenomena and are an advanced tool for constructing novel quantum algorithms. Quantum walks on graphs are fundamentally different from…
We implement the proof of principle for the quantum walk of one ion in a linear ion trap. With a single-step fidelity exceeding 0.99, we perform three steps of an asymmetric walk on the line. We clearly reveal the differences to its…
We investigate the generalisation of quantum search of unstructured and totally ordered sets to search of partially ordered sets (posets). Two models for poset search are considered. In both models, we show that quantum algorithms can…
Hanoi network has a one-dimensional periodic lattice as its main structure with additional long-range edges, which allow having efficient quantum walk algorithm that can find a target state on the network faster than the exhaustive…
This work proposes a computational procedure that uses a quantum walk in a complete graph to train classical artificial neural networks. The idea is to apply the quantum walk to search the weight set values. However, it is necessary to…
A randomly walking quantum particle searches in Grover's $\Theta(\sqrt{N})$ iterations for a marked vertex on the complete graph of $N$ vertices by repeatedly querying an oracle that flips the amplitude at the marked vertex, scattering by a…
In this work we study quantum algorithms for Hopcroft's problem which is a fundamental problem in computational geometry. Given $n$ points and $n$ lines in the plane, the task is to determine whether there is a point-line incidence. The…
We consider the problem of searching a general $d$-dimensional lattice of $N$ vertices for a single marked item using a continuous-time quantum walk. We demand locality, but allow the walk to vary periodically on a small scale. By…
Spatial search is an important problem in quantum computation, which aims to find a marked vertex on a graph. We propose a novel approach for designing deterministic quantum search algorithms on a variety of graphs via alternating quantum…
Recently, it has been shown that one-dimensional quantum walks can mix more quickly than classical random walks, suggesting that quantum Monte Carlo algorithms can outperform their classical counterparts. We study two quantum walks on the…
Quantum walks have by now been realized in a large variety of different physical settings. In some of these, particularly with trapped ions, the walk is implemented in phase space, where the corresponding position states are not orthogonal.…
We present the quantum algorithm for the Longest Trail Problem. The problem is to search the longest edge-simple path for a graph with $n$ vertexes and $m$ edges. Here edge-simple means no edge occurs in the path twice, but vertexes can…
