We investigate a tight binding quantum walk on a graph. Repeated stroboscopic measurements of the position of the particle yield a measured "trajectory", and a combination of classical and quantum mechanical properties for the walk are…
The quantum walk is a quantum counterpart of the classical random walk. On the other hand, the absolute zeta function can be considered as a zeta function over F_1. This paper presents a connection between the quantum walk and the absolute…
Classical random walks on well-behaved graphs are rapidly mixing towards the uniform distribution. Moore and Russell showed that a continuous quantum walk on the hypercube is instantaneously uniform mixing. We show that the continuous-time…

Coalescing random walks is a fundamental stochastic process, where a set of particles perform independent discrete-time random walks on an undirected graph. Whenever two or more particles meet at a given node, they merge and continue as a…
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…
The lackadaisical quantum walk is a lazy version of a discrete-time, coined quantum walk, where each vertex has a weighted self-loop that permits the walker to stay put. They have been used to speed up spatial search on a variety of graphs,…

We attempt to extract a homological structure of two kinds of graphs by the Grover walk. The first one consists of a cycle and two semi-infinite lines and the second one is assembled by a periodic embedding of the cycles in $\mathbb{Z}$. We…

Spatial search is an important problem in quantum computation, which aims to find a marked vertex on a graph. We propose a novel approach for designing deterministic quantum search algorithms on a variety of graphs via alternating quantum…
We examine the time dependent amplitude $ \phi_{j}\left( t\right)$ at each vertex $j$ of a continuous-time quantum walk on the cycle $C_{n}$. In many cases the Lissajous curve of the real vs. imaginary parts of each $ \phi_{j}\left(…
