Abstract

We clarify the structure of tree-homogeneous quantum Markov chains (THQMC) as a multi-dimensional quantum extension of homogeneous Markov chains. We provide a construction of a class of quantum Markov chains on the Cayley tree based on open quantum random walks. Moreover, we prove the uniqueness of THQMC for the construction under consideration, which means the absence of phase transitions.
