摘要
Janmark, Meyer, and Wong showed that continuous-time quantum walk search on known families of strongly regular graphs（SRGs） with parameters（N, k, λ, μ） achieves full quantum speedup. The problem is reconsidered in terms of scattering quantum walk, a type of discrete-time quantum walks. Here, the search space is confined to a low-dimensional subspace corresponding to the collapsed graph of SRGs. To quantify the algorithm＇s performance, we leverage the fundamental pairing theorem, a general theory developed by Cottrell for quantum search of structural anomalies in star graphs.The search algorithm on the SRGs with k scales as N satisfies the theorem, and results can be immediately obtained, while search on the SRGs with k scales as√N does not satisfy the theorem, and matrix perturbation theory is used to provide an analysis. Both these cases can be solved in O（√N） time steps with a success probability close to 1. The analytical conclusions are verified by simulation results on two SRGs. These examples show that the formalism on star graphs can be applied more generally.
