Hitting Time of Quantum Walks with Perturbation
The hitting time is the required minimum time for a Markov chain-based walk
(classical or quantum) to reach a target state in the state space. We
investigate the effect of the perturbation on the hitting time of a quantum
walk. We obtain an upper bound for the perturbed quantum walk hitting time by
applying Szegedy's work and the perturbation bounds with Weyl's perturbation
theorem on classical matrix. Based on the definition of quantum hitting time
given in MNRS algorithm, we further compute the delayed perturbed hitting time
(DPHT) and delayed perturbed quantum hitting time (DPQHT). We show that the
upper bound for DPQHT is actually greater than the difference between the
square root of the upper bound for a perturbed random walk and the square root
of the lower bound for a random walk.Comment: 9 page
Perturbation bounds on the extremal singular values of a matrix after appending a column
In this paper, we study the perturbation of the extreme singular values of a
matrix in the particular case where it is obtained after appending an arbitrary
column vector. Such results have many applications in bifurcation theory,
signal processing, control theory and many other fields. In the first part of
this paper, we review and compare various bounds from recent research papers on
this subject. We also present a new lower bound and a new upper bound on the
perturbation of the operator norm is provided. Simple proofs are provided,
based on the study of the characteristic polynomial rather than on variational
methods, as e.g. in \cite{Li-Li}. In a second part of the paper, we present
applications to signal processing and control theory
Quantum walks: a comprehensive review
Quantum walks, the quantum mechanical counterpart of classical random walks,
is an advanced tool for building quantum algorithms that has been recently
shown to constitute a universal model of quantum computation. Quantum walks is
now a solid field of research of quantum computation full of exciting open
problems for physicists, computer scientists, mathematicians and engineers.
In this paper we review theoretical advances on the foundations of both
discrete- and continuous-time quantum walks, together with the role that
randomness plays in quantum walks, the connections between the mathematical
models of coined discrete quantum walks and continuous quantum walks, the
quantumness of quantum walks, a summary of papers published on discrete quantum
walks and entanglement as well as a succinct review of experimental proposals
and realizations of discrete-time quantum walks. Furthermore, we have reviewed
several algorithms based on both discrete- and continuous-time quantum walks as
well as a most important result: the computational universality of both
continuous- and discrete- time quantum walks.Comment: Paper accepted for publication in Quantum Information Processing

Hitting time of quantum walks with perturbation
The hitting time is the required minimum time for a Markov chain-based walk (classical or quantum) to reach a target state in the state space. We investigate the effect of the perturbation on the hitting time of a quantum walk. We obtain an upper bound for the perturbed quantum walk hitting time by applying Szegedy\u27s work and the perturbation bounds with Weyl\u27s perturbation theorem on classical matrix. Based on the definition of quantum hitting time given in MNRS algorithm, we further compute the delayed perturbed hitting time and delayed perturbed quantum hitting time (DPQHT). We show that the upper bound for DPQHT is bounded from above by the difference between the square root of the upper bound for a perturbed random walk and the square root of the lower bound for a random walk
