摘要

In the paper, we first extend the discrete time quantum random walk (DQRW) to continuous time quantum random walk (CQRW). Then we establish an Ito formula for the one-dimensional CQRW. As an application, we present Tanaka's formula with the Ito formula and characterize the relation between quantum local time L-t(a) and Dirac delta function delta. Finally, we discuss quantum stochastic calculus for the CQRW.
