- Abstract summary: instantaneous control unitaries may be used to mitigate the decrease of information caused by an open dynamics.
A possible, locally optimal (in time) choice for such controls is the one that maximises the time-derivative of the quantum Fisher information.

- Abstract: Information about a classical parameter encoded in a quantum state can only
decrease if the state undergoes a non-unitary evolution, arising from the
interaction with an environment. However, instantaneous control unitaries may
be used to mitigate the decrease of information caused by an open dynamics. A
possible, locally optimal (in time) choice for such controls is the one that
maximises the time-derivative of the quantum Fisher information (QFI)
associated with a parameter encoded in an initial state. In this study, we
focus on a single bosonic mode subject to a Markovian, thermal master equation,
and determine analytically the optimal time-local control of the QFI for its
initial squeezing angle (optical phase) and strength. We show that a single
initial control operation is already optimal for such cases and quantitatively
investigate situations where the optimal control is applied after the open
dynamical evolution has begun.

Inferring the parameters of a model based on experimental observations is central to the scientific method.
A particularly challenging setting is when the model is strongly indeterminate, i.e., when distinct sets of parameters yield identical observations.
We present a method for cracking such indeterminacy by exploiting additional information conveyed by an auxiliary set of observations sharing global parameters.

Dissipation typically drives the system to the maximally mixed state.
For some specific dissipation channel, however, the optimal control can keep the system from the maximum entropy state for infinitely long.
