Title: State transfer for paths with weighted loops at the end vertices
Speaker: Steve Kirkland Affiliation: University of Manitoba Zoom: Contact Soffia ArnadottirAbstract:
We consider a continuous time quantum walk on an unweighted path on n vertices, to which a loop of weight w has been added at each end vertex. Let f(t) denote the fidelity of state transfer from one end vertex to the other at time t. In this talk we give upper and lower bounds on f(t) in terms of w, n and t; further, given a > 0 we discuss the values of t for which f(t) > 1-a.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
