Zero discord quantum states arising from weighted digraphs

In this paper we determine the class of quantum states whose density matrix representation can be derived from graph Laplacian matrices associated with a weighted directed graph and we call them graph Laplacian quantum states. Then we obtain structural properties of these graphs such that the corresponding graph Laplacian states have zero quantum discord by investigating structural properties of clustered graphs which provide a family of commuting normal matrices formed by the blocks of its Laplacian matrices. We apply these results on some important mixed quantum states, such as the Werner, Isotropic, and X-states.
