In this article, we propose a quantum communication protocol via 2-step discrete time quantum walks with two coins on a graph of 10 vertices containing both cycles and paths. Quantum walks are known for their ability to integrate quantum…

We compare discrete-time quantum walks on graphs to their natural classical equivalents, which we argue are lifted Markov chains, that is, classical Markov chains with added memory. We show that these can simulate quantum walks, allowing us…

Quantum walks are considered in a one-dimensional random medium characterized by static or dynamic disorder. Quantum interference for static disorder can lead to Anderson localization which completely hinders the quantum walk and it is…

This paper gives the quantum walks determined by graph zeta functions. The result enables us to obtain the characteristic polynomial of the transition matrix of the quantum walk, and it determines the behavior of the quantum walk. We treat…

Quantum walks are roughly analogous to classical random walks, and like classical walks they have been used to find new (quantum) algorithms. When studying the behavior of large graphs or combinations of graphs it is useful to find the…

We construct infinite families of graphs in which pretty good state transfer can be induced by adding a potential to the nodes of the graph (i.e. adding a number to a diagonal entry of the adjacency matrix). Indeed, we show that given any…

Let $L$ denote the Laplacian matrix of a graph $G$. We study continuous quantum walks on $G$ defined by the transition matrix $U(t)=\exp\left(itL\right)$. The initial state is of the pair state form, $e_a-e_b$ with $a,b$ being any two…

A duality between the properties of many spinor bosons on a regular lattice and those of a single particle on a weighted graph reveals that a quantum particle can traverse an infinite hierarchy of networks with perfect probability in…

Quantum walks, both discrete (coined) and continuous time, form the basis of several recent quantum algorithms. Here we use numerical simulations to study the properties of discrete, coined quantum walks. We investigate the variation in the…

Given the recent advances in quantum technology, the complexity of quantum states is an important notion. The idea of the Krylov spread complexity has come into focus recently with the goal of capturing this in a quantitative way. The…

We scrutinize the diagrammatic perturbation theory of noninteracting electrons in a random potential with the aim to accomplish a consistent comprehensive theory of quantum diffusion. Ward identity between the one-electron self-energy and…

This work exploits a framework whereby a graph (in the mathematical sense) serves to connect a classical system to a state space that we call `quantum-like' (QL). The QL states comprise arbitrary superpositions of states in a tensor product…

We show that particle transport in a uniform, quantum multi-baker map, is generically ballistic in the long time limit, for any fixed value of Planck's constant. However, for fixed times, the semi-classical limit leads to diffusion. Random…

Quantum effects are known to provide an advantage in particle transfer across networks. In order to achieve this advantage, requirements on both a graph type and a quantum system coherence must be found. Here we show that the process of…

We show that with the addition of multiple walkers, quantum walks on a line can be transformed into lattice graphs of higher dimension. Thus, multi-walker walks can simulate single-walker walks on higher dimensional graphs and vice versa.…
