Evolution of Quantum Resources in Quantum-walk-based Search Algorithm

Abstract: Quantum walk is fundamental to designing many quantum algorithms. Here we consider the effects of quantum coherence and quantum entanglement for the quantum walk search on the complete bipartite graph. First, we numerically show the complementary relationship between the success probability and the two quantum resources (quantum coherence and quantum entanglement). We also provide theoretical analysis in the asymptotic scenarios. At last, we discuss the role played by generalized depolarizing noises and find that it would influence the dynamics of success probability and quantum coherence sharply, which is demonstrated by theoretical derivation and numerical simulation.
