Thus, we introduce a zeta function on the positive support of the cube of the Grover transition matrix of $G$, and present its Euler product and its determinant expression. As a corollary, we give the characteristic polynomial for the positive support of the cube of the Grover transition matrix of a regular graph, and so obtain its spectra. Finally, we present the poles and the radius of the convergence of this zeta function.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-11-14T12:22:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "60F50", "05C50", "15A15", "05C60" ], "keywords": [ "discrete-time quantum walk", "zeta function", "grover transition matrix", "positive support", "euler product" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
