We show how to use properties of the quantum conditional mutual information to obtain continuity bounds for information characteristics of quantum channels depending on their input dimension. First we prove tight estimates for variation of…

Privacy-preserving instance encoding aims to encode raw data as feature vectors without revealing their privacy-sensitive information. When designed properly, these encodings can be used for downstream ML applications such as training and…

Leveraging quantum information geometry, we derive generalized quantum speed limits on the rate of change of the expectation values of observables. These bounds subsume and, for Hilbert space dimension $\geq 3$, tighten existing bounds --…

We show the mutual information between the targets in a Gray-Wyner Network as a bound that separates Wyner's lossy common information and G\'acs-K\"orner lossy common information. The results are a generalization of the lossless case…

This paper extends the idea of a generalized estimator for a scalar parameter (Vos, 2022) to multi-dimensional parameters both with and without nuisance parameters. The title reflects the fact that generalized estimators provide more than…

We present a new notion $R_\ell$ of higher-order common information, which quantifies the information that $\ell\geq 2$ arbitrarily distributed random variables have in common. We provide analytical lower bounds on $R_3$ and $R_4$ for…

The design of informatively rich input signals is essential for accurate system identification, yet classical Fisher-information-based methods are inherently local and often inadequate in the presence of significant model uncertainty and…

This paper considers the problem of estimation of the Fisher information for location from a random sample of size $n$. First, an estimator proposed by Bhattacharya is revisited and improved convergence rates are derived. Second, a new…

In fiber-optic communications, evaluation of mutual information (MI) is still an open issue due to the unavailability of an exact and mathematically tractable channel model. Traditionally, lower bounds on MI are computed by approximating…

We give conditions for an O(1/n) rate of convergence of Fisher information and relative entropy in the Central Limit Theorem. We use the theory of projections in L2 spaces and Poincare inequalities, to provide a better understanding of the…

The Quantum Fisher information (QFI) quantifies the ultimate precision of estimating a parameter from a quantum state, and can be regarded as a reliability measure of a quantum system as a quantum sensor. However, estimation of the QFI for…

In many-body quantum systems, unitary dynamics generically delocalize locally encoded information, causing single-site metrological sensitivity to vanish. We analytically demonstrate that a topological phase can prevent this dispersal. In…

We investigate the connection between the time-evolution of averages of stochastic quantities and the Fisher information and its induced statistical length. As a consequence of the Cramer-Rao bound, we find that the rate of change of the…

We consider estimating the magnitude of a monochromatic AC signal that couples to a two-level sensor. For any detection protocol, the precision achieved depends on the signal's frequency and can be quantified by the quantum Fisher…

We consider the estimation of a signal from the knowledge of its noisy linear random Gaussian projections. A few examples where this problem is relevant are compressed sensing, sparse superposition codes, and code division multiple access.…
