• Abstract: Quantum theory allows the traversing of multiple channels in a superposition of different orders. When the order in which the channels are traversed is controlled by an auxiliary quantum system, various unknown parameters of the channels can be estimated by measuring only the control system, even when the state of the probe alone would be insensitive. Moreover, increasing the dimension of the control system increases the number of simultaneously estimable parameters, which has important metrological ramifications. We demonstrate this capability for simultaneously estimating both unitary and noise parameters, including multiple parameters from the same unitary such as rotation angles and axes and from noise channels such as depolarization, dephasing, and amplitude damping in arbitrary dimensions. We identify regimes of unlimited advantages, taking the form of $p^2$ smaller variances in estimation when the noise probability is $1-p$, for both single and multiparameter estimation when using our schemes relative to any comparable scheme whose causal order is definite.

  We study the role of probe dimension in determining the bounds of precision in quantum estimation problems. We also critically examine the performance of the so-called incompatibility (AI) in characterizing the difference between the Holevo-Cram'er-Rao bound and the Symmetric Logarithmic Derivative (SLD) one.

  In particular, qubit phase estimation, or rotation sensing, appears as a ubiquitous problem with applications to electric field sensing, magnetometry, atomic clocks, and gyroscopes. We propose a new family of parametrized encoding and decoding protocols called arbitrary-axis twist ansatzes. We show that it can lead to a substantial reduction in the number of one-axis twists needed to achieve a target estimation error.

• Untwining multiple parameters at the exclusive zero-coincidence points with quantum control [3.600673741710729]
  A collection of parameters are said to be intertwined when their imprinting on a quantum probe is performed by a set of linearly dependent generators. We show that the parameters can be effectively untwined by inserting a sequence of balanced beam splitters. For the case of two time delays we prove that, when the employed probe is the frequency-correlated biphoton state, the untwining occurs in correspondence of exclusive zero-coincidence (EZC) point.
