We study how quantum walks can be used to find structural anomalies in graphs via several examples. Two of our examples are based on star graphs, graphs with a single central vertex to which the other vertices, which we call external…

Algebro-geometric methods have proven to be very successful in the study of graphical models in statistics. In this paper we introduce the foundations to carry out a similar study of their quantum counterparts. These quantum graphical…

While stabilizer tableaus have proven exceptionally useful as a descriptive tool for additive quantum codes, they offer little guidance for concrete constructions or coding algorithm analysis. We introduce a representation of stabilizer…

We say that a group G is a cube group if it is generated by a set S of involutions such that the corresponding Cayley graph Cay(G,S) is isomorphic to a cube. Equivalently, G is a cube group if it acts on a cube such that the action is…

In quantum field theory the creation and annihilation operators that are located at the points in 3-momentum space have commutation relations that are conserved under the action of a $U({\infty})$ group. Here it is shown how to define an…

We construct a sequence of finite graphs that weakly converge to a Cayley graph, but there is no labelling of the edges that would converge to the corresponding Cayley diagram. A similar construction is used to give graph sequences that…

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 initiate the study of Hamiltonian cycles up to symmetries of the underlying graph. Our focus lies on the extremal case of Hamiltonian-transitive graphs, i.e., Hamiltonian graphs where, for every pair of Hamiltonian cycles, there is a…

We show that quantum theory allows for transformations of black boxes that cannot be realized by inserting the input black boxes within a circuit in a pre-defined causal order. The simplest example of such a transformation is the classical…

The study of graph C*-algebras has a long history in operator algebras. Surprisingly, their quantum symmetries have never been computed so far. We close this gap by proving that the quantum automorphism group of a finite, directed graph…

We demonstrate experimentally the ability of a quantum annealer to distinguish between sets of non-isomorphic graphs that share the same classical Ising spectrum. Utilizing the pause-and-quench features recently introduced into D-Wave…

It is shown that q-deformed quantum mechanics (q-deformed Heisenberg algebra) can be interpreted as quantum mechanics on Kaehler manifolds, or as a quantum theory with second (or first-) class constraints. (Saclay, T93/027).

Using tangent bundle geometry we construct an equivalent reformulation of classical field theory on flat spacetimes which simultaneously encodes the perspectives of multiple observers. Its generalization to curved spacetimes realizes a new…

We outline the recent classification of differential structures for all main classes of quantum groups. We also outline the algebraic notion of `quantum manifold' and `quantum Riemannian manifold' based on quantum group principal bundles, a…

Temperley-Lieb algebras have been generalized to sl(3) web spaces. Since a cubic bipartite planar graph with suitable directions on edges is a web, the quantum sl(3) invariants naturally extend to all cubic bipartite planar graphs. First we…

Mapping-class groups of 3-manifolds feature as symmetry groups in canonical quantum gravity. They are an obvious source through which topological information could be transmitted into the quantum theory. If treated as gauge symmetries,…

This work deals with the scattering entropy of quantum graphs in many different circumstances. We first consider the case of the Shannon entropy and then the R\'enyi and Tsallis entropies, which are more adequate to study distinct…

According to a recent conjecture, isospectral objects have different nodal count sequences. We study generalized Laplacians on discrete graphs, and use them to construct the first non-trivial counter-examples to this conjecture. In…

Quantum graphs have attracted attention from mathematicians for some time. A quantum graph is defined by having a Laplacian on each edge of a metric graph and imposing boundary conditions at the vertices to get an eigenvalue problem. A…

We study the spectral properties of infinite rectangular quantum graphs in the presence of a magnetic field. We study how these properties are affected when three-dimensionality is considered, in particular, the chaological properties. We…
