A continuous-time quantum walk on a graph evolves according to the unitary operator $e^{-iAt}$, where $A$ is the adjacency matrix of the graph. Perfect state transfer (PST) in a quantum walk is the transfer of a quantum state from one node…
Quantum walks are standard tools for searching graphs for marked vertices, and they often yield quadratic speedups over a classical random walk's hitting time. In some exceptional cases, however, the system only evolves by sign flips,…

A discrete-time quantum walk is the quantum analogue of a Markov chain on a graph. Zhan [J. Algebraic Combin. 53(4):1187-1213, 2020] proposes a model of discrete-time quantum walk whose transition matrix is given by two reflections, using…
We prove new results on perfect state transfer of quantum walks on quotient graphs. Since a graph $G$ has perfect state transfer if and only if its quotient $G/\pi$, under any equitable partition $\pi$, has perfect state transfer, we…
A continuous-time quantum walk on a graph is a matrix-valued function $\exp(-\mathtt{i} At)$ over the reals, where $A$ is the adjacency matrix of the graph. Such a quantum walk has universal perfect state transfer if for all vertices $u,v$,…
A continuous-time quantum random walk describes the motion of a quantum mechanical particle on an underlying graph. The graph itself is associated with a Hilbert space of dimension equal to the number of vertices. The dynamics of the walk…

The quantum walk dynamics obey the laws of quantum mechanics with an extra locality constraint, which demands that the evolution operator is local in the sense that the walker must visit the neighboring locations before endeavoring to…
We study perfect state transfer in Grover walks, which are typical discrete-time quantum walk models. In particular, we focus on states associated to vertices of a graph. We call such states vertex type states. Perfect state transfer…
