• Abstract: The simultaneous measurement approach of Arthurs and Kelly has been a significant tool for the better understanding of the measurement process in quantum mechanics. This model considers a strong interaction Hamiltonian by discarding the free evolution part. In this work, we study the effect of the full dynamics -- taking into account the free Hamiltonian -- on the optimal limits of retrodictive and predictive accuracy of the simultaneous measurement process of position and momentum observables. To do that, we consider a minimum uncertainty Gaussian state as the system under inspection, which allows to carry out an optimal simultaneous measurement. We show that the inclusion of the free Hamiltonian induces a spreading on the probability density of the measurement setting, which increases the value of the product of the variances of the so-called retrodictive and predictive error operators, this is equivalent to a reduction in the accuracy of the measurement.

  This paper builds on the Quantum Darwinism framework derived to explain the emergence of the classical world. We establish a measurement error bound to quantify the probability an observer will obtain an incorrect measurement outcome. Using this error bound, we show that the objectifying observables readily equilibrate on average under the set of Hamiltonians.

  It is commonly believed that the marginal likelihood should be reminiscent of cross-validation metrics and that both should deteriorate with larger input dimensions. We prove that by tuning hyper parameters, the performance, as measured by the marginal likelihood, improves monotonically with the input dimension. We also prove that cross-validation metrics exhibit qualitatively different behavior that is characteristic of double descent.

  We introduce a scenario of measurement-induced many body evolution, which possesses an exact analytical solution: bosonic measurements. We consider an elementary model for quantum criticality, the free boson conformal field theory, and investigate in which way criticality is modified under measurements. For each scenario, we discuss the impact of imperfect measurements, which reduce the purity of the wavefunction and are equivalent to Markovian decoherence.
