Source location in quantum networks is a critical area of research with profound implications for cutting-edge fields such as quantum state tomography, quantum computing, and quantum communication. In this study, we present groundbreaking research on the technique and theory of source location in Szegedy's quantum networks. We develop a linear system evolution model for a Szegedy's quantum network system using matrix vectorization techniques.

Accurately and swiftly identifying the source of an outbreak is crucial for controlling the spread of an epidemic and minimizing its impact. However, existing research on locating epidemic sources often overlooks the fact that epidemics have an incubation period and fails to consider social behaviors like self-isolation during the spread of the epidemic.

We proposed an multi-source location algorithm for different propagation dynamics by using sparse observations. Without knowing the propagation dynamics and any dynamic parameters, we can calculate node centrality based on the character that positive correlation between inform time of nodes and geodesic distance between nodes and sources.
