Quantum walks: The mean first detected transition time

We consider the quantum first detection problem for a particle evolving on a graph under repeated projective measurements with fixed rate 1/τ. A general formula for the mean first detected transition time is obtained for a quantum walk in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space where the initial state |ψ...
