Abstract: We study a class of Unitary Quantum Walks on arbitrary graphs, parameterized by a family of scattering matrices. These Scattering Quantum Walks model the discrete dynamics of a system on the edges of the graph, with a scattering process at each vertex governed by the scattering matrix assigned to it. We show that Scattering Quantum Walks encompass several known Quantum Walks. Additionally, we introduce two classes of Open Scattering Quantum Walks on arbitrary graphs, also parameterized by scattering matrices: one class defined on the edges and the other on the vertices of the graph. We show that these walks give rise to proper Quantum Channels and describe their main spectral and dynamical properties, relating them to naturally associated classical Markov chains.

Third quantization of open quantum systems: new dissipative symmetries and connections to phase-space and Keldysh field theory formulations [77.34726150561087]
We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods. We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians. For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.

Spectral bounds for the quantum chromatic number of quantum graphs [0.0]
We obtain lower bounds for the classical and quantum number of a quantum graph using eigenvalues of the quantum adjacency matrix. We generalize all the spectral bounds given by Elphick and Wocjan to the quantum graph setting. Our results are achieved using techniques from linear algebra and a complete definition of quantum graph coloring.

Quantum information spreading in a disordered quantum walk [50.591267188664666]
We design a quantum probing protocol using Quantum Walks to investigate the Quantum Information spreading pattern. We focus on the coherent static and dynamic disorder to investigate anomalous and classical transport. Our results show that a Quantum Walk can be considered as a readout device of information about defects and perturbations occurring in complex networks.

We study the spectral features, on fractal-like graphs, of Hamiltonians which exhibit the special property of perfect quantum state transfer. The essential goal is to develop the theoretical framework for understanding the interplay between perfect quantum state transfer, spectral properties, and the geometry of the underlying graph.
