Quantum walks driven by quantum coins with two multiple eigenvalues.

2021 
We consider a spectral analysis on the quantum walks on graph $G=(V,E)$ with the local coin operators $\{C_u\}_{u\in V}$ and the flip flop shift. The quantum coin operators have commonly two distinct eigenvalues $\kappa,\kappa'$ and $p=\dim(\ker(\kappa-C_u))$ for any $u\in V$ with $1\leq p\leq \delta(G)$, where $\delta(G)$ is the minimum degrees of $G$. We show that this quantum walk can be decomposed into a cellular automaton on $\ell^2(V;\mathbb{C}^p)$ whose time evolution is described by a self adjoint operator $T$ and its remainder. We obtain how the eigenvalues and its eigenspace of $T$ are lifted up to as those of the original quantum walk. As an application, we express the eigenpolynomial of the Grover walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ with the moving shift in the Fourier space.
