Abstract

Abstract Previously it was shown that (almost) perfect state transfer can be achieved on the complete bipartite graph by a discrete-time coined quantum walk based algorithm when both the sender and receiver vertices are in the same partition of the graph and when the sender and receiver are in opposite partitions of the same size. By changing the coin operator, we analyze the state transfer problem and we show that it is still possible to achieve state transfer with high fidelity even when the sender and receiver are in different partitions with different sizes. Moreover, it is also possible to use an active switch approach using lackadaisical quantum walks where the marked vertex is switched between the sender and receiver during the algorithm.

Quantum-walk-based state-transfer algorithms on the complete M -partite graph

S. Skoupý, M. Štefaňák

We investigate coined quantum-walk search and state-transfer algorithms, focusing on the complete $M$-partite graph with $N$ vertices in each partition. First, it is shown that by adding a loop to each vertex, the search algorithm finds the marked vertex with unit probability in the limit of a large graph. Next, we employ the evolution operator of the search with two marked vertices to perform a state transfer between the sender and the receiver. We show that when the sender and the receiver are in different partitions, the algorithm succeeds with fidelity approaching unity for a large graph. However, when the sender and the receiver are in the same partition, the fidelity does not reach exactly 1. To solve this problem, we propose a state-transfer algorithm with an active switch, whose fidelity can be estimated based on the single vertex search alone.

Perfect state transfer by means of discrete-time quantum walk on the complete bipartite graph

J.S.T. Huang, Dan Li, Panlong Li +2 more

Abstract Perfect state transfer has attracted a great deal of attention recently due to its crucial role in quantum communication and scalable quantum computation. In this paper, we propose the perfect state transfer algorithms with a pair of sender-receiver and two pairs of sender-receiver on the complete bipartite graph respectively. The algorithm with a pair of sender-receiver is implemented through discrete-time quantum walk, flexibly setting the coin operators based on the positions of the sender and receiver. The algorithm with two pairs of sender-receiver ensures that the two quantum states are distributed on both sides of the complete bipartite graph during the process, thereby achieving perfect state transfer. In addition, the quantum circuits corresponding to the algorithms are provided. The algorithms can transfer an arbitrary quantum state and can simultaneously transfer two arbitrary quantum states from the senders to the receivers in any case. Moreover, the algorithms are not only applicable to complete bipartite graphs but also to more graph structures with complete bipartite subgraphs, which will provide potential applications for quantum information processing.

Perfect state transfer by means of discrete-time quantum walk search algorithms on highly symmetric graphs

M. Štefaňák, S. Skoupý

Perfect state transfer between two marked vertices of a graph by means of a discrete-time quantum walk is analyzed. We consider the quantum walk search algorithm with two marked vertices, sender and receiver. It is shown by explicit calculation that, for the coined quantum walks on a star graph and a complete graph with self-loops, perfect state transfer between the sender and receiver vertex is achieved for an arbitrary number of vertices $N$ in $O(\sqrt{N})$ steps of the walk. Finally, we show that Szegedy's walk with queries on a complete graph allows for state transfer with unit fidelity in the limit of large $N$.

Quantum walk state transfer on a hypercube

M. Štefaňák, S. Skoupý

Abstract We investigate state transfer on a hypercube by means of a quantum walk where the sender and the receiver vertices are marked by a weighted loops. First, we analyze search for a single marked vertex, which can be used for state transfer between arbitrary vertices by switching the weighted loop from the sender to the receiver after one run-time. Next, state transfer between antipodal vertices is considered. We show that one can tune the weight of the loop to achieve state transfer with high fidelity in shorter run-time in comparison to the state transfer with a switch. Finally, we investigate state transfer between vertices of arbitrary distance. It is shown that when the distance between the sender and the receiver is at least 2, the results derived for the antipodes are well applicable. If the sender and the receiver are direct neighbours the evolution follows a slightly different course. Nevertheless, state transfer with high fidelity is achieved in the same run-time.

Quantum communication protocols by quantum walks with two coins

Yun Shang, Wang, Yu, Li, Meng +1 more

We introduce some new perfect state transfer and teleportation schemes by quantum walks with two coins. Encoding the transferred information in coin 1 state and alternatively using two coin operators, we can perfectly recover the information on coin 1 state at target position only by at most two times of flipping operation. Based on quantum walks with two coins either on the line or on the $N$-circle, we can perfectly transfer any qubit state. In addition, using quantum walks with two coins either on complete graphs or regular graphs, we can first implement perfect qudit state transfer by quantum walks. Compared with existing schemes driven by one coin, more general graph structures can be used to perfectly transfer more general state. Moreover, the external control of coin operator during the transmitting process can be decreased greatly. Selecting coin 1 as the sender and coin 2 as the receiver, we also study how to realize generalized teleportation over long steps of walks by the above quantum walk models. Because quantum walks is an universal quantum computation model, our schemes may provide an universal platform for the design of quantum network and quantum computer.

Quantum state transfer on unsymmetrical graphs via discrete-time quantum walk

Weifeng Cao, Yu‐Guang Yang, Dan Li +3 more

Perfect state transfer can be achieved between two marked vertices of graphs like a star graph, a complete graph with self-loops and a complete bipartite graph, and two-dimensional Lattice by means of discrete-time quantum walk. In this paper, we investigate the quality of quantum state transfer between two marked vertices of an unsymmetrical graph like the butterfly network. Our numerical results support the conjecture that the fidelity of state transfer depends on the quantum state to be transferred dynamically. The butterfly network is a typical example studied in networking coding. Therefore, these results can provide a clue to the construction of quantum network coding schemes.
