D ec 1 99 8 Optimal minimal measurements of mixed states
نویسندگان
چکیده
The optimal and minimal measuring strategy is obtained for a two-state system prepared in a mixed state with a probability given by any isotropic a priori distribution. We explicitly construct the specific optimal and minimal generalized measurements, which turn out to be independent of the a priori probability distribution, obtaining the best guesses for the unknown state as well as a closed expression for the maximal mean averaged fidelity. We do this for up to three copies of the unknown state in a way which leads to the generalization to any number of copies, which we then present and prove.

We construct complete nonorientable minimal surfaces whose Gauss map omits two points of RP 2 . This result proves that Fujimoto’s theorem is sharp in nonorientable case.

Traditional analysis of g = 2(1+κ) experiments for charged leptons use a classical spin vector picture. For muons, we here employ a more exact Dirac quantum four component spinor theory. Survival probabilities (including wave packet effects) are computed. These oscillate with the frequency Ω = (κeB/M c) as has been assumed in previous muon (g − 2) experimental analyses; i.e. muon survival proba...

Bertsch Dept. of Physics and Institute for Nuclear Theory, FM-15 University of Washington Seattle, WA 98195 Abstract The interferometric analysis of meson correlations provides a measure of the average phase space density of the mesons in the final state. This quantity is a useful indicator of ...

The three ways of generalization of canonical coherent states are briefly reviewed and compared with the emphasis laid on the (minimum) uncertainty way. The characteristic uncertainty relations, which include the Schrödinger and Robertson inequalities, are extended to the case of several states. It is shown that the standard SU (1, 1) and SU (2) coherent states are the unique states which minim...
متن کاملProcess Improvement of Experimental Measurements Using D-optimal Models
In this paper, the application of D-optimal models, as an alternative to response surface models (RS models) for design of experiment (DOE) was examined. Two D-optimal models for tilt-rotors in the wind tunnel experiment, as a form of quadratic functions, were generated based on a chosen optimality criterion. This optimality criterion was used to generate the optimized sampled points in the des...
