- Abstract: We study a class of symmetric quantum walks on Hamming graphs, where the distance between vertices specifies the transition probability. A special model is the simple quantum walk on the hypercube, which has been discussed in the literature. Eigenvalues of the unitary operator of the quantum walks are zeros of certain self-reciprocal polynomials. We obtain a spectral representation of the wave vector, where our systematic treatment relies on the coin space isomorphic to the state space and the commutative association scheme. The limit distributions of several quantum walks are obtained.

We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions.
We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain.
We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.
