We present a novel strategy for obtaining optimal probe states and measurement schemes in a class of noiseless multiparameter estimation problems with symmetry among the generators. The key to the framework is the introduction of a set of…

The quantum variables that can be accessed directly by experiments are described by observables. Therefore, physical parameters can only be evaluated indirectly, via estimations based on experimental measurement results. I show that the…

Simultaneously estimating multiple parameters at the ultimate limit is a central challenge in quantum metrology, often hindered by inherent incompatibilities in optimal estimation strategies. At its most extreme, this incompatibility…

We address several estimation problems in quantum optics by means of the maximum-likelihood principle. We consider Gaussian state estimation and the determination of the coupling parameters of quadratic Hamiltonians. Moreover, we analyze…

Describing the evolution of quantum systems by means of non-Hermitian generators opens a new avenue to explore the dynamical properties naturally emerging in such a picture, e.g. operation at the so-called exceptional points, preservation…

This paper explores the problem of quantum measurement complexity. In computability theory, the complexity of a problem is determined by how long it takes an effective algorithm to solve it. This complexity may be compared to the difficulty…

We study the problem of parameter estimation for time-series possessing two, widely separated, characteristic time scales. The aim is to understand situations where it is desirable to fit a homogenized singlescale model to such multiscale…

Motivated by quantum resource theories, we introduce a notion of incompatibility for quantum measurements relative to a reference basis. The notion arises by considering states diagonal in that basis and investigating whether probability…

Incompatible measurements, i.e., measurements that cannot be simultaneously performed, are necessary to observe nonlocal correlations. It is natural to ask, e.g., how incompatible the measurements have to be to achieve a certain violation…

We introduce a general model for a network of quantum sensors, and we use this model to consider the question: when do correlations (quantum or classical) between quantum sensors enhance the precision with which the network can measure an…
