We have developed Bayesian formalism to describe the process of continuous measurement of entangled qubits. We start with the case of two qubits and then generalize it to an arbitrary number of qubits.
It is known that any two-outcome quantum measurement can be decomposed into a continuous stochastic process using a feedback loop. In this article, we characterize which of these decompositions are possible when each iteration of the…
