• Abstract: When an informationally complete measurement is not available, the reconstruction of the density operator that describes the state of a quantum system can be accomplish, in a reliable way, by adopting the maximum entropy principle (MaxEnt principle), as an additional criterion, to obtain the least biased estimation. In this paper, we study the performance of the MaxEnt method for quantum state estimation when there is prior information about symmetries of the unknown state. We explicitly describe how to work with this method in the most general case, and present an algorithm that allows to improve the estimation of quantum states with arbitrary symmetries. Furthermore, we implement this algorithm to carry out numerical simulations estimating the density matrix of several three-qubit states of particular interest for quantum information tasks. We observed that, for most states, our approach allows to considerably reduce the number of independent measurements needed to obtain a sufficiently high fidelity in the reconstruction of the density matrix. Moreover, we analyze the performance of the method in realistic scenarios, showing that it is robust even when considering the effect of finite statistics, and under the presence of typical experimental noise.

The smart use of prior knowledge of the quantum state symmetries allows for a reduction in both, the number of measurements that need to be made on the system, and the size of the computational problem to store and process the data.

  We propose a general framework for constructing classical approximations of arbitrary quantum states with quantum reservoirs. A key advantage of our method is that only a single local measurement setting is required for estimating arbitrary properties. This estimation scheme is extendable to higher-dimensional systems and hybrid systems with non-identical local dimensions.

  Mean value estimation of observables is an essential subroutine in quantum computing algorithms. The quantum estimation theory identifies the ultimate precision of such an estimator, which is referred to as the quantum Cram'er-Rao (QCR) lower bound or equivalently the inverse of the quantum Fisher information. We propose a quantum-enhanced mean value estimation method in a depolarizing noisy environment that saturates the QCR bound in the limit of a large number of qubits.
