Quantum networks are often modelled using Schroedinger operators on metric graphs. To give meaning to such models one has to know how to interpret the boundary conditions which match the wave functions at the graph vertices. In this article…
For time-reversal invariant graphs we prove the Bohigas-Giannoni-Schmit conjecture in its most general form: For graphs that are mixing in the classical limit, all spectral correlation functions coincide with those of the Gaussian…
In this paper, a new measurement to compare two large-scale graphs based on the theory of quantum probability is proposed. An explicit form for the spectral distribution of the corresponding adjacency matrix of a graph is established. Our…
We introduce a notion of quantum function, and develop a compositional framework for finite quantum set theory based on a 2-category of quantum sets and quantum functions. We use this framework to formulate a 2-categorical theory of quantum…
This workshop brought together experts in classical graph theory and quantum information science to explore the intersection of these fields, with a focus on quantum graph states and their applications in computing, networking, and sensing.…
We study a set of scattering matrices of quantum graphs containing minimal number of passbands, i.e., maximal number of zero elements. The cases of even and odd vertex degree are considered. Using a solution of inverse scattering problem,…
We show how to define invariants of graphs related to quantum $\mathfrak{sl}(2)$ when the graph has more then one connected component and components are colored by blocks of representations with zero quantum dimensions.
The symmetries of a finite graph are described by its automorphism group; in the setting of Woronowicz's quantum groups, a notion of a quantum automorphism group has been defined by Banica capturing the quantum symmetries of the graph. In…
Whenever graphs admit equitable partitions, their quotient graphs highlight the structure evidenced by the partition. It is therefore very natural to ask what can be said about two graphs that have the same quotient according to certain…
We study some properties of graphs (or, rather, graph sequences) defined by demanding that the number of subgraphs of a given type, with vertices in subsets of given sizes, approximatively equals the number expected in a random graph. It…
We construct a bosonic quantum field on a general quantum graph. Consistency of the construction leads to the calculation of the total scattering matrix of the graph. This matrix is equivalent to the one already proposed using generalized…
The energy levels of a quantum graph with time reversal symmetry and unidirectional classical dynamics are doubly degenerate and obey the spectral statistics of the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble. These degeneracies, however, are lifted when the…
In the model suggested by Smilansky one studies an operator describing the interaction between a quantum graph and a system of K one-dimensional oscillators attached at different points of the graph. This paper is a continuation of our…
We study the dispersion relations and spectra of invariant Schr\"odinger operators on a graphyne structure (lithographite). In particular, description of different parts of the spectrum, band-gap structure, and Dirac points are provided.
We compute the spectrum for a class of quantum Markov semigroups describing systems of $N$ particle interacting through a binary collision mechanism. These quantum Markov semgroups are associated to a novel kind of quantum random walk on…
For non-Hermitian equilateral q-pointed star-shaped quantum graphs of paper I [Can. J. Phys. 90, 1287 (2012), arXiv 1205.5211] we show that due to certain dynamical aspects of the model as controlled by the external, rotation-symmetric…
Quantum graphs and their experimental counterparts, microwave networks, are ideally suited to study the spectral statistics of chaotic systems. The graph spectrum is obtained from the zeros of a secular determinant derived from energy and…
We undertake a study of the notion of a quantum graph over arbitrary finite-dimensional $C^*$-algebras $B$ equipped with arbitrary faithful states. Quantum graphs are realised principally as either certain operators on $L^2(B)$, the quantum…
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 introduce the concept of hypergraphs to describe quantum optical experiments with probabilistic multi-photon sources. Every hyperedge represents a correlated photon source, and every vertex stands for an optical output path. Such general…
