- Abstract: The recently established resource theory of quantum coherence allows for a
quantitative understanding of the superposition principle, with applications
reaching from quantum computing to quantum biology. While different quantifiers
of coherence have been proposed in the literature, their efficient estimation
in today's experiments remains a challenge. Here, we introduce a collective
measurement scheme for estimating the amount of coherence in quantum states,
which requires entangled measurements on two copies of the state. As we show by
numerical simulations, our scheme outperforms other estimation methods based on
tomography or adaptive measurements, leading to a higher precision in a large
parameter range for estimating established coherence quantifiers of qubit and
qutrit states. We show that our method is accessible with today's technology by
implementing it experimentally with photons, finding a good agreement between
experiment and theory.

We propose an adaptive measurement optimization method that is useful for the quantum subspace methods.
The proposed method first determines the measurement protocol for classically simulatable states, and then adaptively updates the protocol of quantum subspace expansion.
As a numerical demonstration, we have shown for excited-state simulation of molecules that we are able to reduce the number of measurements by an order of magnitude.

We benchmark and compare several such approaches by applying them to measured data from an experiment producing two-qubit entangled states.
We find that in the presence of experimental imperfections and noise, confining the variational manifold to physical states greatly improves the quality of the reconstructed states.
