Uniform Mixing of Quantum Walks and Association Schemes

In recent years quantum algorithms have become a popular area of mathematical research. Farhi and Gutmann introduced the concept of a quantum walk in 1998. In this thesis we investigate mixing properties of continuous-time quantum walks from a mathematical perspective. We focus on the connections be...
