SEMINAR: Groups and Combinatorics Seminar: Perfect State Transfer Wed, 03 Aug 2011 11:00 - Maths Lecture Room 2 Murray Smith Groups and Combinatorics Seminar Murray Smith (UWA) will speak on Perfect State Transfer at 11am Wednesday 3rd of August in MLR2 Abstract: In quantum information systems, it is desirable to transfer the quantum state of one qubit to another with high fidelity. This is known as perfect state transfer, and can be modelled as a graph theoretic problem. In this talk I will offer an introduction to the topic with types of graphs that can permit PST, specifically integral circulant graphs. I will also discuss my time spent at the University of Waterloo under the direction of Dr. Chris Godsil, and recent developments in characterising graphs with PST.
