The transfer of quantum states plays an important role in quantum information. The fidelity of quantum states transferred from one vertex to another has always been the focus of attention. In this paper, we study the perfect state transfer on several graphs, namely the complete bipartite graph , the two-dimensional hypercube, the three-dimensional hypercube, the
-fold star power
and the finite path graph
. We obtain the Hamiltonian of the graphs by designing the coupling strength between antipodes vertices and using mirror symmetry. Since the several types of graphs we selected are highly symmetrical, based on the idea of quantum probability, we adopt the method of spectral distribution of the adjacency matrix to divide the graphs into the union of disjoint strata, making the fixed origin on the graph to achieve perfect state transfer with the vertices of each stratum. In particular, we find that the
-fold star power
has perfect state transfer only when
under this method. In addition, for the finite path graph
, we obtain conclusions that are consistent with the known results.
