A Study on Edge-Set Graphs of Certain Graphs

Let $G(V, E)$ be a simple connected graph, with $|E| = \epsilon.$ In this paper, we define an edge-set graph $\mathcal G_G$ constructed from the graph $G$ such that any vertex $v_{s,i}$ of $\mathcal G_G$ corresponds to the $i$-th $s$-element subset of $E(G)$ and any two vertices $v_{s,i}, v_{k,m}$ of $\mathcal G_G$ are adjacent if and only if there is at least one edge in the edge-subset corresponding to $v_{s,i}$ which is adjacent to at least one edge in the edge-subset corresponding to $v_{k,m}$ where $s,k$ are positive integers. It can be noted that the edge-set graph $\mathcal G_G$ of a graph $G$ id dependent on both the structure of $G$ as well as the number of edges $\epsilon.$ We also discuss the characteristics and properties of the edge-set graphs corresponding to certain standard graphs.Comment: 10 pages, 2 figure

Unifying parameter estimation and the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm for continuous variables

We reveal a close relationship between quantum metrology and the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm on continuous-variable quantum systems. We develop a general procedure, characterized by two parameters, that unifies parameter estimation and the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm. Depending on which parameter we keep constant, the procedure implements either the parameter-estimation protocol or the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm. The parameter-estimation part of the procedure attains the Heisenberg limit and is therefore optimal. Due to the use of approximate normalizable continuous-variable eigenstates, the Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm is probabilistic. The procedure estimates a value of an unknown parameter and solves the Deutsch-Jozsa problem without the use of any entanglement
