New chapter on quantum walks

Open Stina-A opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Changes made

Have added a chapter on quantum walks which includes a demonstration of the quantum walk search algorithm.

Justification

This tutorial provides a hands-on explanation using Qiskit of a quantum walk algorithm on a 4-dimensional hypercube. First, we provide some theory on quantum walk models and the quantum walk algorithm. Thereafter, we show how we can implement one step of the walk on the 4-dimensional hypercube followed by the implementations of the other two main parts of the algorithm; inverse Fourier transform and phase estimation. Lastly, we show how we can combine the steps to achieve the complete quantum walk search algorithm.

All comments and suggestions are greatly appreciated!
