The Quantum Fisher Information (QFI) metric governs a fundamental duality: it quantifies both how precisely a parameter can be estimated (metrology) and how distinguishable two quantum states are (privacy). We exploit this duality to…

Differential privacy has been an exceptionally successful concept when it comes to providing provable security guarantees for classical computations. More recently, the concept was generalized to quantum computations. While classical…
