Title: On reverse mixing in quantum walks
Speaker: Christino Tamon Affiliation: Clarkson University Zoom: Contact Sabrina LatoAbstract:
A random walk on a connected undirected graph mixes to the principal eigenvector. We consider a continuous-time quantum walk to reverse this process: starting with the principal eigenvector, can we reach an arbitrary vertex if we were to place a loop on the target vertex?
