We construct a distorted Fourier transformation associated with the multi-dimensional quantum walk. In order to avoid the complication of notations, almost all of our arguments are restricted to two dimensional quantum walks (2DQWs) without…

The time evolutions of discrete-time quantum walks on graphs are determined by the local adjacency relations of the graphs. In this paper, first, we construct a discrete-time quantum walk model that reflects the embedding on the surface so…

We study scattering quantum walks on highly symmetric graphs and use the walks to solve search problems on these graphs. The particle making the walk resides on the edges of the graph, and at each time step scatters at the vertices. All of…

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…

There is a property called localization, which is essential for applications of quantum walks. From a mathematical point of view, the occurrence of localization is known to be equivalent to the existence of eigenvalues of the time evolution…

Existence of the eigenvalues of the discrete-time quantum walks is deeply related to localization of the walks. We revealed the distributions of the eigenvalues given by the splitted generating function method (the SGF method) of the…
