Rev. Lett. 83, 3354 (1999), is reconsidered from the point of view of quantum state estimation. We show that it is directly related to the mean error of the standard reconstruction from the measurement of a complete set of mutually complementary observables. We give its generalization in terms of the Fisher information. Provided that the optimum reconstruction is adopted, the corresponding quantity loses its invariant character.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-11-21T17:12:43.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "quantum state estimation", "invariant information", "standard reconstruction", "invariant character", "mean error" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2002, "month": "Apr", "volume": 88, "number": 13, "pages": 130401 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 4, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2002PhRvL..88m0401R" } } }
