Quantum random walks

We start by presenting the concept of quantum random walk (QRW) and some of its applications. The class of QRW's without destructive interference is studied and several results are obtained by adapting the theory of Markov chains (asymptotic distribution, ergodic theorem). Some of these results are discussed in detail. A sketch of the proof that this class is dense over the class of all QRW's is presented. The talk reports ongoing joint work with Y. Omar, A. Pacheco and A. Sernadas.
