Recent theoretical and experimental work has shown that the quantum Fisher information associated with estimating the separation between two optical point sources remains finite at small separations, effectively opening new routes to…

Open questions from Sarovar and Milburn (2006 J.Phys. A: Math. Gen. 39 8487) are answered. Sarovar and Milburn derived a convenient upper bound for the Fisher information of a one-parameter quantum channel. They showed that for…

In this work, we present a lower bound on the quantum Fisher information (QFI) which is efficiently computable on near-term quantum devices. This bound itself is of interest, as we show that it satisfies the canonical criteria of a QFI…
