We consider magnetic Schroedinger operators on quantum graphs with identical edges. The spectral problem for the quantum graph is reduced to the discrete magnetic Laplacian on the underlying combinatorial graph and a certain Hill operator.…

We identify a set of quantum graphs with unique and precisely defined spectral properties called {\it regular quantum graphs}. Although chaotic in their classical limit with positive topological entropy, regular quantum graphs are…

In this paper we consider the separability problem for bipartite quantum states arising from graphs. Earlier it was proved that the degree criterion is the graph-theoretic counterpart of the familiar positive partial transpose criterion for…

We consider quantum search on graphs. Recently, it has been shown that the graph properties like connectivity, global symmetry, or regularity cannot serve as a reliable criteria that must be satisfied by a graph to allow a successful…

A fundamental problem in the theory of PT-invariant quantum systems is to determine whether a given system `respects' this symmetry or not. If not, the system usually develops non-real eigenvalues. It is shown in this contribution how to…

A finite discrete graph is turned into a quantum (metric) graph once a finite length is assigned to each edge and the one-dimensional Laplacian is taken to be the operator. We study the dependence of the spectral gap (the first positive…

We introduce various notions of quantum symmetry in a directed or undirected multigraph with no isolated vertex and explore relations among them. If the multigraph is single edged (that is, a simple graph where loops are allowed), all our…

In this dissertation we demonstrate that the continuous-time quantum walk models remain powerful for nontrivial graph structures. We consider two aspects of this problem. First, it is known that the standard Continuous-Time Quantum Walk…

We determine the optimum topology of quasi-one dimensional nonlinear optical structures using generalized quantum graph models. Quantum graphs are relational graphs endowed with a metric and a multiparticle Hamiltonian acting on the edges,…

Global control offers a promising route to scalable quantum computing. A recent conjecture by Hu et al. (arXiv:2508.19075) proposes that any connected qubit graph equipped with global Ising-type interactions and tunable global transverse…

We study the quantum-mechanical transport on two-dimensional graphs by means of continuous-time quantum walks and analyse the effect of different boundary conditions (BCs). For periodic BCs in both directions, i.e., for tori, the problem…
