We present a simple way to quantize the well-known Margulis expander map. The result is a quantum expander which acts on discrete Wigner functions in the same way the classical Margulis expander acts on probability distributions. The…
We give a simple recipe for translating walks on Cayley graphs of a group G into a quantum operation on any irrep of G. Most properties of the classical walk carry over to the quantum operation: degree becomes the number of Kraus operators,…
We prove that a wide class of random quantum channels with few Kraus operators, sampled as random matrices with some sparsity and moment assumptions, typically exhibit a large spectral gap, and are therefore optimal quantum expanders. In…
In this work we investigate how quantum expanders (i.e. quantum channels with few Kraus operators but a large spectral gap) can be constructed from unitary designs. Concretely, we prove that a random quantum channel whose Kraus operators…
We define quantum expanders in a natural way. We show that under certain conditions classical expander constructions generalize to the quantum setting, and in particular so does the Lubotzky, Philips and Sarnak construction of Ramanujan…
D. A. Kahzdan first put forth property (T) in relation to the study of discrete subgroups of Lie groups of finite co-volume. Through a combinatorial approach, we define an analogue of property (T) for regular graphs. We then prove the basic…
Quantum expanders are a natural generalization of classical expanders. These objects were introduced and studied by Ben-Aroya and Ta-Shma and by Hastings. In this note we show how to construct explicit, constant-degree quantum expanders.…
We introduce the concept of quantum tensor product expanders. These are expanders that act on several copies of a given system, where the Kraus operators are tensor products of the Kraus operator on a single system. We begin with the…
Expander graphs are fundamental in both computer science and mathematics, with a wide array of applications. With quantum technology reshaping our world, quantum expanders have emerged, finding numerous uses in quantum information theory,…
We study the problem of constructing explicit sparse graphs that exhibit strong vertex expansion. Our main result is the first two-sided construction of imbalanced unique-neighbor expanders, meaning bipartite graphs where small sets…
Quantum graphs have been introduced by Duan, Severini, and Winter to describe the zero-error behaviour of quantum channels. Since then, quantum graph theory has become a field of study in its own right. A substantial source of difficulty in…
A finite dimensional operator that commutes with some symmetry group admits quotient operators, which are determined by the choice of associated representation. Taking the quotient isolates the part of the spectrum supporting the chosen…
We propose in this note the study of quantum channels from association schemes. This is done by interpreting the $(0,1)$-matrices of a scheme as the Kraus operators of a channel. Working in the framework of one-shot zero-error information…
The purpose of this article is to give a characterization of families of expander graphs via right-angled Artin groups. We prove that a sequence of simplicial graphs $\{\Gamma_i\}_{i\in\mathbb{N}}$ forms a family of expander graphs if and…
Differential operators of Schrodinger type are considered on metric Cayley graphs of free groups with a minimal set of M generators. The potential and edge lengths may vary with the M edge types. Using novel methods, a set of M multipliers…
The main result of the paper is the characterization of those locally compact quantum groups with projection, i.e. non-commutative analogs of semidirect products, which are extensions as defined by L. Vainerman and S. Vaes. It turns out…
Expander graphs, due to their mixing properties, are useful in many algorithms and combinatorial constructions. One can produce an expander graph with high probability by taking a random graph (e.g., the union of $d$ random bijections for a…
Geometric property (T) was defined by Willett and Yu, first for sequences of graphs and later for more general discrete spaces. Increasing sequences of graphs with geometric property (T) are expanders, and they are examples of coarse spaces…
A theory of principal bundles possessing quantum structure groups and classical base manifolds is presented. Structural analysis of such quantum principal bundles is performed. A differential calculus is constructed, combining differential…
Quantum expanders are a quantum analogue of expanders, and k-tensor product expanders are a generalisation to graphs that randomise k correlated walkers. Here we give an efficient construction of constant-degree, constant-gap quantum…
