Optimal measurements for quantum multiparameter estimation are complicated by the uncertainty principle. Generally, there is a trade-off between the precision with which different parameters can be simultaneously estimated. The task of…
The presence of quantum correlations in a quantum state is related to the state response to local unitary perturbations. Such response is quantified by the distance between the unperturbed and perturbed states, minimized with respect to…

The unitarity of quantum evolutions implies that the overlap between two initial states does not change in time. This property is commonly believed to explain the lack of state sensitivity in quantum theory, a feature that is prevailing in…

Quantum realism, as introduced by Bilobran and Angelo [EPL 112, 40005 (2015)], states that projective measurements in quantum systems establish the reality of physical properties, even in the absence of a revealed outcome. This framework…
Many protocols require precise rotation measurement. Here we present a general class of states that surpass the shot noise limit for measuring rotation around arbitrary axes. We then derive a quantum Cram\'er-Rao bound for simultaneously…
There has been much work in the recent past in developing the idea of quantum geometry to characterize and understand the structure of many-particle states. For mean-field states, the quantum geometry has been defined and analysed in terms…
