- Abstract summary: We investigate the effect of initial system-environment correlations to improve the estimation of environment parameters.
In the temperature estimation case, our results are promising as one can improve the precision of the estimates by orders of magnitude.
In the case of coupling strength, interestingly the accuracy was found to be continuously increasing in both with and without correlations cases.

- Abstract: We investigate the effect of initial system-environment correlations to improve the estimation of environment parameters. By employing various physical situations of interest, we present results for the environment temperature and system-environment coupling strength. We consider the spin-spin model whereby a probe (a small controllable quantum system) interacts with a bath of quantum spins and attains a thermal equilibrium state. A projective measurement is then performed to prepare the initial state and allow it to evolve unitarily. The properties of the environment are imprinted upon the dynamics of the probe. The reduced density matrix of the probe state contains a modified decoherence factor and dissipation. This additional factor acts in such a way to improve the estimation of the environment parameters, as quantified by the quantum Fisher information (QFI). In the temperature estimation case, our results are promising as one can improve the precision of the estimates by orders of magnitude by incorporating the effect of initial correlations. The precision increases in the strong coupling regime even if the nearest neighbours' interaction is taken into account. In the case of coupling strength, interestingly the accuracy was found to be continuously increasing in both with and without correlations cases. More importantly, one can see the noticeable role of correlations in improving precision, especially at low temperatures.

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.
