We introduce a new approach to evaluating entangled quantum networks using information geometry. Quantum computing is powerful because of the enhanced correlations from quantum entanglement. For example, larger entangled networks can enhance quantum key distribution (QKD). Each network we examine is an n-photon quantum state with a degree of entanglement. We analyze such a state within the space of measured data from repeated experiments made by n observers over a set of identically-prepared quantum states -- a quantum state interrogation in the space of measurements. Each observer records a 1 if their detector triggers, otherwise they record a 0. This generates a string of 1s and 0s at each detector, and each observer can define a binary random variable from this sequence. We use a well-known information geometry-based measure of distance that applies to these binary strings of measurement outcomes, and we introduce a generalization of this length to area, volume and higher-dimensional volumes. These geometric equations are defined using the familiar Shannon expression for joint and mutual entropy. We apply our approach to three distinct tripartite quantum states: the GHZ state, the W state, and a separable state P. We generalize a well-known information geometry analysis of a bipartite state to a tripartite state. This approach provides a novel way to characterize quantum states, and it may have favorable scaling with increased number of photons.

We study the skew information-based coherence of quantum states and derive explicit formulas for Werner states and isotropic states in a set of autotensor of mutually unbiased bases (AMUBs). We also give surfaces of skew information-based coherence f or Bell-diagonal states and a special class of X states in both computational basis and in mutually unbiased bases. Moreover, we depict the surfaces of the skew information-based coherence for Bell-diagonal states under various types of local nondissipative quantum channels. The results show similar as well as different features compared with relative entropy of coherence and l1 norm of coherence.
Adaptive techniques make practical many quantum measurements that would otherwise be beyond current laboratory capabilities. For example: they allow discrimination of nonorthogonal states with a probability of error equal to the Helstrom bound; they allow measurement of the phase of a quantum oscillator with accuracy approaching (or in some cases attaining) the Heisenberg limit; and they allow estimation of phase in interferometry with a variance scaling at the Heisenberg limit, using only single qubit measurement and control. Each of these examples has close links with quantum information, in particular experimental optical quantum information: the first is a basic quantum communication protocol; the second has potential application in linear optical quantum computing; the third uses an adaptive protocol inspired by the quantum phase estimation algorithm. We discuss each of these examples, and their implementation in the laboratory, but concentrate upon the last, which was published most recently [Higgins {em et al.}, Nature vol. 450, p. 393, 2007].
The quantum Fisher information (QFI) represents a fundamental concept in quantum physics. On the one hand, it quantifies the metrological potential of quantum states in quantum-parameter-estimation measurements. On the other hand, it is intrinsically related to the quantum geometry and multipartite entanglement of many-body systems. Here, we explore how the QFI can be estimated via randomized measurements, an approach which has the advantage of being applicable to both pure and mixed quantum states. In the latter case, our method gives access to the sub-quantum Fisher information, which sets a lower bound on the QFI. We experimentally validate this approach using two platforms: a nitrogen-vacancy center spin in diamond and a 4-qubit state provided by a superconducting quantum computer. We further perform a numerical study on a many-body spin system to illustrate the advantage of our randomized-measurement approach in estimating multipartite entanglement, as compared to quantum state tomography. Our results highlight the general applicability of our method to general quantum platforms, including solid-state spin systems, superconducting quantum computers and trapped ions, hence providing a versatile tool to explore the essential role of the QFI in quantum physics.

Recently, there is a growing interest in study quantum mechanics from the information geometry perspective, where a quantum state is depicted with a point in the projective Hilbert space. By taking quantum Fisher information (QFI) as the metric of pr ojective Hilbert spaces, estimating a small parameter shift is equivalent to distinguishing neighboring quantum states along a given curve. Henceforth, information geometry plays a significant role in the single parameter estimation. However, the absence of high dimensional measures limits its applications in studying the multi-parameter systems. In this paper, we will discuss the physical implications of the volume element of QFI. It measures the intrinsic density of quantum states (IDQS) in projective Hilbert spaces, which is, then, a measure to define the (over) completeness relation of a class of quantum states. As an application, IDQS can be used in quantum measurement and multi-parameter estimation. We find the density of distinguishable states (DDS) for a set of efficient estimators is measured by the invariant volume of the classical Fisher information, which is the classical counterpart of QFI and serves as the metric of statistical manifolds. Correspondingly, a determinant form of quantum Cram{e}r-Rao inequality is proposed to quantify the ability to infer the IDQS via quantum measurement. As a result, we find a gap between IDQS and maximal DDS over the measurements. The gap has tight connections with the uncertainty relationship. Exemplified with the three-level system with two parameters, we find the maximal DDS attained via the emph{vertex measurements} (MvDDS) equals the square root of the quantum geometric tensors determinant. It indicates the square gap between IDQS and MvDDS is proportional to the square of Berry curvature.
Binary quantum information can be fault tolerantly encoded in states defined in infinite dimensional Hilbert spaces. Such states define a computational basis, and permit a perfect equivalence between continuous and discrete universal operations. The drawback of this encoding is that the corresponding logical states are unphysical, meaning infinitely localized in phase space. We use the modular variables formalism to show that, in a number of protocols relevant for quantum information and for the realization of fundamental tests of quantum mechanics, it is possible to loosen the requirements on the logical subspace without jeopardizing their usefulness or their successful implementation. Such protocols involve measurements of appropriately chosen modular observables that permit the readout of the encoded discrete quantum information from the corresponding logical states. Finally, we demonstrate the experimental feasibility of our approach by applying it to the transverse degrees of freedom of single photons.
