Optimal estimation of one parameter quantum channels
We explore the task of optimal quantum channel identification, and in particular the estimation of a general one parameter quantum process. We derive new characterizations of optimality and apply the results to several examples including the qubit depolarizing channel and the harmonic oscillator damping channel. We also discuss the geometry of the problem and illustrate the usefulness of using ...
متن کاملOptimal quantum estimation of loss in bosonic channels.
We address the estimation of the loss parameter of a bosonic channel probed by Gaussian signals. We derive the ultimate quantum bound with precision and show that no improvement may be obtained by having access to the environmental degrees of freedom. We find that, for small losses, the variance of the optimal estimator is proportional to the loss parameter itself, a result that represents a qu...
متن کاملOne-Shot Quantum Capacities of Quantum Channels
We study optimal rates for quantum communication over a single use of a channel, which itself can correspond to a finite number of uses of a channel with correlated noise. The corresponding capacity is often referred to as the one-shot capacity. Here, in particular, we consider the protocol in which Alice sends one part of a maximally entangled state through a quantum channel to Bob, who then p...
متن کاملQuantum Limits on Parameter Estimation
We present a new proof of the quantum Cramer-Rao bound for precision parameter estimation [1–3] and extend it to a more general class of measurement procedures. We analyze a generalized framework for parameter estimation that covers most experimentally accessible situations, where multiple rounds of measurements, auxiliary systems or external control of the evolution are available. The proof pr...
متن کاملOne-mode quantum Gaussian channels
A classification of one-mode Gaussian channels is given up to canonical unitary equivalence. A complementary to the quantum channel with additive classical Gaussian noise is described providing an example of onemode Gaussian channel which is neither degradable nor anti-degradable. 1 The canonical form For a mathematical framework of linear Bosonic system used in this note the reader is referred...
