A version of quantum Cram\'{e}r-Rao bound dictates that the covariance of any set of operators is bounded by a product of the derivatives of expectation values and the inverse of quantum metric. We elaborate that because quantum metric…

In quantum multi-parameter estimation, the precision of estimating unknown parameters is bounded by the Cramer-Rao bound (CRB), defined via the inverse of the Fisher information matrix (FIM). However, in certain scenarios such as…

Quantum Fisher information matrices (QFIMs) are fundamental to estimation theory: they encode the ultimate limit for the sensitivity with which a set of parameters can be estimated using a given probe. Since the limit invokes the inverse of…

We show that two quantities in quantum metrology that were thought to be the same, the quantum Fisher information matrix and the Bures metric, are not the same. They differ at points at which the rank of the density matrix changes. The…

To any parametric family of states of a finite level quantum system we associate a space of Fisher maps and introduce the natural notions of Cram\'er-Rao-Bhattacharya tensor and Fisher information form. This leads us to an abstract…

Advanced super-resolution imaging techniques require specific approaches for accurate and consistent estimation of the achievable spatial resolution. Fisher information supplied to Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) has proved to be a powerful and…

We derive lower bounds on the variance of estimators in quantum metrology by choosing test observables that define constraints on the unbiasedness of the estimator. The quantum bounds are obtained by analytical optimization over all…
