- Abstract: Quantum parameter estimation with Hermitian systems has been applied in
various fields, but there are relatively few results concerning non-Hermitian
systems. Here, we study the quantum parameter estimation for general
non-Hermitian Hamiltonians and derive an intuitive expression of quantum Fisher
information (QFI) for pure states. Furthermore, we propose the condition for
optimal measurements, which is applicable to both Hermitian and non-Hermitian
Hamiltonians. To illustrate these results, we calculate and study the QFI of a
specific $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonian, and give the
optimal measurement. Surprisingly, we find some interesting properties of this
$\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonian QFI, such as the mutations in QFI at EP.
Moreover, we also compare the variance of estimation generated by the optimal
measurement with the theoretical precision bound to verify the condition for
optimal measurements we proposed.
