Abstract

We provide a general framework for quantifying the optimal tradeoff between the information retrieved by a quantum measurement and the disturbance on the quantum state in covariant quantum state estimation.

Information-disturbance tradeoff for spin coherent state estimation

Massimiliano Federico Sacchi

We show how to quantify the optimal tradeoff between the amount of information retrieved by a quantum measurement in estimating an unknown spin coherent state and the disturbance on the state itself, and how to derive the corresponding minimum-disturbing measurement.

Information-Disturbance Tradeoff in Estimating a Maximally Entangled State

Massimiliano Federico Sacchi

We derive the amount of information retrieved by a quantum measurement in estimating an unknown maximally entangled state, along with the pertaining disturbance on the state itself. The optimal tradeoff between information and disturbance is obtained, and a corresponding optimal measurement is provided.

Information-disturbance tradeoff in quantum measurements

Lorenzo Maccone

We present a simple information-disturbance tradeoff relation valid for any general measurement apparatus: The disturbance between input and output states is lower bounded by the information the apparatus provides in distinguishing these two states.

Information-disturbance tradeoff in quantum measurement on the uniform ensemble

Howard Barnum

The author considers the tradeoff between information gained about a quantum state and disturbance caused by the measurement providing the information. For every measurement, he finds the way of making it which is least-disturbing, on average, when the initial quantum state is completely unknown.

Information-disturbance trade-off in quantum-state discrimination

Francesco Buscemi, Massimiliano Federico Sacchi

When discriminating between two pure quantum states, there exists a quantitative trade-off between the information retrieved by the measurement and the disturbance caused on the unknown state. We derive the optimal trade-off and provide the corresponding quantum measurement. Such an optimal measurement smoothly interpolates between the two limiting cases of maximal information extraction and no measurement at all.

Towards a Unified Approach to Information-Disturbance Tradeoffs in Quantum Measurements

Francesco Buscemi, Michał Horodecki

We show that the global balance of information dynamics for general quantum measurements given in [F. Buscemi, M. Hayashi, and M. Horodecki, Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 210504 (2008)] makes it possible to unify various and generally inequivalent approaches adopted in order to derive information-disturbance tradeoffs in quantum theory. We focus in particular on those tradeoffs, constituting the vast majority of the literature on the subject, where disturbance is defined either in terms of average output fidelity or of entanglement fidelity.
