Nash equilibria in quantum state estimation and cloning games

Chiu Fan Lee, Neil F. Johnson

We apply a generalized quantum game formalism to the phenomena of quantum cloning and quantum state estimation. We find that both phenomena can be usefully viewed as quantum games. We compute the corresponding Nash equilibria and payoffs for both phenomena. Our work also provides a new perspective on quantum cryptography.

Optimal cloning for finite distributions of coherent states

P. T. Cochrane, Timothy C. Ralph, A. Dolińska

We derive optimal cloning limits for finite Gaussian distributions of coherent states and describe techniques for achieving them. We discuss the relation of these limits to state estimation and the no-cloning limit in teleportation. A qualitatively different cloning limit is derived for a single-quadrature Gaussian quantum cloner.

Asymptotic Quantum Cloning Is State Estimation

Joonwoo Bae, Antonio Acín

The impossibility of perfect cloning and state estimation are two fundamental results in quantum mechanics. It has been conjectured that quantum cloning becomes equivalent to state estimation in the asymptotic regime where the number of clones tends to infinity. We prove this conjecture using two known results of quantum information theory: the monogamy of quantum correlations and the properties of entanglement breaking channels.
