We study quantum statistical inference tasks of hypothesis testing and their canonical variations, in order to review relations between their corresponding figures of merit---measures of statistical distance---and demonstrate the crucial differences which arise in the quantum regime in contrast to the classical setting. In our analysis, we primarily focus on the geometric approach to data inference problems, within which the aforementioned measures can be neatly interpreted as particular forms of divergences that quantify distances in the space of probability distributions or, when dealing with quantum systems, of density matrices. Moreover, with help of the standard language of Riemannian geometry we identify both the metrics such divergences must induce and the relations such metrics must then naturally inherit. Finally, we discuss exemplary applications of such a geometric approach to problems of quantum parameter estimation, speed limits and thermodynamics.

We introduce a new statistical and variational approach to the phase estimation algorithm (PEA). Unlike the traditional and iterative PEAs which return only an eigenphase estimate, the proposed method can determine any unknown eigenstate-eigenphase p
air from a given unitary matrix utilizing a simplified version of the hardware intended for the Iterative PEA (IPEA). This is achieved by treating the probabilistic output of an IPEA-like circuit as an eigenstate-eigenphase proximity metric, using this metric to estimate the proximity of the input state and input phase to the nearest eigenstate-eigenphase pair and approaching this pair via a variational process on the input state and phase. This method may search over the entire computational space, or can efficiently search for eigenphases (eigenstates) within some specified range (directions), allowing those with some prior knowledge of their system to search for particular solutions. We show the simulation results of the method with the Qiskit package on the IBM Q platform and on a local computer.
A geometric approach to some quantum statistical systems (including the harmonic oscillator) is presented. We regard the (N+1)-dimensional Euclidean {it coordinate} system (X$^i$,$tau$) as the quantum statistical system of N quantum (statistical) var
iables (X$^i$) and one {it Euclidean time} variable ($tau$). Introducing a path (line or hypersurface) in this space (X$^i$,$tau$), we adopt the path-integral method to quantize the mechanical system. This is a new view of (statistical) quantization of the {it mechanical} system. It is inspired by the {it extra dimensional model}, appearing in the unified theory of forces including gravity, using the bulk-boundary configuration. The system Hamiltonian appears as the {it area}. We show quantization is realized by the {it minimal area principle} in the present geometric approach. When we take a {it line} as the path, the path-integral expressions of the free energy are shown to be the ordinary ones (such as N harmonic oscillators) or their simple variation. When we take a {it hyper-surface} as the path, the system Hamiltonian is given by the {it area} of the {it hyper-surface} which is defined as a {it closed-string configuration} in the bulk space. In this case, the system becomes a O(N) non-linear model. The two choices, (1) the {it line element} in the bulk ($X^i,tau $) and (2) the Hamiltonian(defined as the damping functional in the path-integral) specify the system dynamics. After explaining this new approach, we apply it to a topic in the 5 dimensional quantum gravity. We present a {it new standpoint} about the quantum gravity: (a) The metric (gravitational) field is treated as the background (fixed) one; (b) The space-time coordinates are not merely position-labels but are quantum (statistical) variables by themselves. We show the recently-proposed 5 dimensional Casimir energy is valid.
Since the very early days of quantum theory there have been numerous attempts to interpret quantum mechanics as a statistical theory. This is equivalent to describing quantum states and ensembles together with their dynamics entirely in terms of phas
e-space distributions. Finite dimensional systems have historically been an issue. In recent works [Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 180401 and Phys. Rev. A 96, 022117] we presented a framework for representing any quantum state as a complete continuous Wigner function. Here we extend this work to its partner function -- the Weyl function. In doing so we complete the phase-space formulation of quantum mechanics -- extending work by Wigner, Weyl, Moyal, and others to any quantum system. This work is structured in three parts. Firstly we provide a brief modernized discussion of the general framework of phase-space quantum mechanics. We extend previous work and show how this leads to a framework that can describe any system in phase space -- putting it for the first time on a truly equal footing to Schrodingers and Heisenbergs formulation of quantum mechanics. Importantly, we do this in a way that respects the unifying principles of parity and displacement in a natural broadening of previously developed phase space concepts and methods. Secondly we consider how this framework is realized for different quantum systems; in particular we consider the proper construction of Weyl functions for some example finite dimensional systems. Finally we relate the Wigner and Weyl distributions to statistical properties of any quantum system or set of systems.
A geometric approach to general quantum statistical systems (including the harmonic oscillator) is presented. It is applied to Casimir energy and the dissipative system with friction. We regard the (N+1)-dimensional Euclidean {it coordinate} system (
X$^i$,$tau$) as the quantum statistical system of N quantum (statistical) variables (X$^i$) and one {it Euclidean time} variable ($tau$). Introducing paths (lines or hypersurfaces) in this space (X$^i$,$tau$), we adopt the path-integral method to quantize the mechanical system. This is a new view of (statistical) quantization of the {it mechanical} system. The system Hamiltonian appears as the {it area}. We show quantization is realized by the {it minimal area principle} in the present geometric approach. When we take a {it line} as the path, the path-integral expressions of the free energy are shown to be the ordinary ones (such as N harmonic oscillators) or their simple variation. When we take a {it hyper-surface} as the path, the system Hamiltonian is given by the {it area} of the {it hyper-surface} which is defined as a {it closed-string configuration} in the bulk space. In this case, the system becomes a O(N) non-linear model. We show the recently-proposed 5 dimensional Casimir energy (ArXiv:0801.3064,0812.1263) is valid. We apply this approach to the visco-elastic system, and present a new method using the path-integral for the calculation of the dissipative properties.
We present a dynamic approach to study the quantum discord and classical correlation. By local filtering operation, the evaluation of quantum discord is closely related to quantum channel and channel capacity. As a consequence, the traditional optimi
zation over horizontal-or-vertical von Neumann measurements is replaced by that over horizontal-and-vertical three-element POVM measurement, from which more rigorous results of quantum discord are obtained.
