Measurement uncertainty relations are lower bounds on the errors of any approximate joint measurement of two or more quantum observables. The aim of this paper is to provide methods to compute optimal bounds of this type. The basic method…
A characteristical property of a classical physical theory is that the observables are real functions taking an exact outcome on every (pure) state; in a quantum theory, at the contrary, a given observable on a given state can take several…
We construct uncertainty relation for arbitrary finite dimensional PT invariant non-Hermitian quantum systems within a special inner product framework. This construction is led by good observables which are a more general class of…

By invoking quantum estimation theory we formulate bounds of errors in quantum measurement for arbitrary quantum states and observables in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space. We prove that the measurement errors of two observables satisfy…
We experimentally analyzed the statistical errors in quantum-state estimation and examined whether their lower bound, which is derived from the Cramer-Rao inequality, can be truly attained or not. In the experiments, polarization states of…

In order to provide a guaranteed precision and a more accurate judgement about the true value of the Cram\'{e}r-Rao bound and its scaling behavior, an upper bound (equivalently a lower bound on the quantum Fisher information) for precision…
Quantum Cram\'er--Rao theory is intrinsically local: it bounds precision near a specified parameter value, and its saturating measurement generally depends on that value. Barankin-type bounds use finite parameter displacements, but remain…
