Phase-space geometry and optimal state preparation in quantum metrology with collective spins

MH Muñoz-Arias, IH Deutsch, PM Poggi - PRX Quantum, 2023 - APS
We revisit well-known protocols in quantum metrology using collective spins and propose a
unifying picture for optimal state preparation based on a semiclassical description in phase …

Optimal Ramsey interferometry with echo protocols based on one-axis twisting

MS Scharnagl, T Kielinski, K Hammerer - Physical Review A, 2023 - APS
We study a variational class of generalized Ramsey protocols that include two one-axis
twisting (OAT) operations, one performed before the phase imprint and the other after. In this …

Classical shadows with symmetries

F Sauvage, M Larocca - arxiv preprint arxiv:2408.05279, 2024 - arxiv.org
Classical shadows (CS) have emerged as a powerful way to estimate many properties of
quantum states based on random measurements and classical post-processing. In their …

tqix. pis: A toolbox for quantum dynamics simulation of spin ensembles in Dicke basis

NT Viet, NT Chuong, VTN Huyen - Computer Physics Communications, 2023 - Elsevier
We introduce tqix. pis, a library of tqix, for quantum dynamics simulation of spin ensembles.
The library emulates a dynamic process by a quantum circuit, including initializing a …

Globally optimal interferometry with lossy twin Fock probes

TJ Volkoff, C Ryu - Frontiers in Physics, 2024 - frontiersin.org
Parity or quadratic spin (eg, J z 2) readouts of a Mach–Zehnder (MZ) interferometer probed
with a twin Fock (TF) input state allow saturating the optimal sensitivity attainable among all …

Saturating the one-axis twisting quantum Cramér-Rao bound with a total spin readout

TJ Volkoff, MJ Martin - Journal of Physics Communications, 2024 - iopscience.iop.org
We show that the lowest quantum Cramér-Rao bound achievable in interferometry with a
one-axis twisted spin coherent state is saturated by the asymptotic method of moments error …
