In this work, we extend the idea of Quantum Markov chains [S. Gudder. Quantum Markov chains. J. Math. Phys., 49(7), 2008] in order to propose Quantum Hidden Markov Models (QHMMs). For that, we use the notions of Transition Operation…

Usually quantum chains with quantum group symmetry are associated with representations of quantized universal algebras $U_q(g) $ . Here we propose a method for constructing quantum chains with $C_q(G)$ global symmetry , where $C_q(G)$ is…

We introduce quantum Markov states (QMS) in a general tree graph $G= (V, E)$, extending the Cayley tree's case. We investigate the Markov property w.r.t. the finer structure of the considered tree. The main result of this paper concerns the…
