We address the problem of unambiguously identifying the state of a probe qudit with the state of one of d reference qudits. The reference states are assumed pure and linearly independent but we have no knowledge of them. The state of the probe qudit is assumed to coincide equally likely with either one of the d unknown reference states. We derive the optimum measurement strategy that maximizes the success probability of unambiguous identification and find that the optimum strategy is a generalized measurement. We give both the measurement operators and the optimum success probability explicitly. Technically, the problem we solve amounts to the optimum unambiguous discrimination of d known mixed quantum states.

We propose a learning method for estimating unknown pure quantum states. The basic idea of our method is to learn a unitary operation $hat{U}$ that transforms a given unknown state $|psi_taurangle$ to a known fiducial state $|frangle$. Then, after co
mpletion of the learning process, we can estimate and reproduce $|psi_taurangle$ based on the learned $hat{U}$ and $|frangle$. To realize this idea, we cast a random-based learning algorithm, called `single-shot measurement learning, in which the learning rule is based on an intuitive and reasonable criterion: the greater the number of success (or failure), the less (or more) changes are imposed. Remarkably, the learning process occurs by means of a single-shot measurement outcome. We demonstrate that our method works effectively, i.e., the learning is completed with a {em finite} number, say $N$, of unknown-state copies. Most surprisingly, our method allows the maximum statistical accuracy to be achieved for large $N$, namely $simeq O(N^{-1})$ scales of average infidelity. This result is comparable to those yielded from the standard quantum tomographic method in the case where additional information is available. It highlights a non-trivial message, that is, a random-based adaptive strategy can potentially be as accurate as other standard statistical approaches.
Quantum systems with a finite number of states at all times have been a primary element of many physical models in nuclear and elementary particle physics, as well as in condensed matter physics. Today, however, due to a practical demand in the area
of developing quantum technologies, a whole set of novel tasks for improving our understanding of the structure of finite-dimensional quantum systems has appeared. In the present article we will concentrate on one aspect of such studies related to the problem of explicit parameterization of state space of an $N$-level quantum system. More precisely, we will discuss the problem of a practical description of the unitary $SU(N)$-invariant counterpart of the $N$-level state space $mathfrak{P}_N$, i.e., the unitary orbit space $mathfrak{P}_N/SU(N)$. It will be demonstrated that the combination of well-known methods of the polynomial invariant theory and convex geometry provides useful parameterization for the elements of $mathfrak{P}_N/SU(N)$. To illustrate the general situation, a detailed description of $mathfrak{P}_N/SU(N)$ for low-level systems: qubit $(N=2),,$ qutrit $(N=3),,$ quatrit $(N=4),$ - will be given.
Coherent states of the quantum electromagnetic field, the quantum description of ideal laser light, are a prime candidate as information carriers for optical communications. A large body of literature exists on quantum-limited parameter estimation an
d discrimination for coherent states. However, very little is known about practical realizations of receivers for unambiguous state discrimination (USD) of coherent states. Here we fill this gap and establish a theory of unambiguous discrimination of coherent states, with receivers that are allowed to employ: passive multimode linear optics, phase-space displacements, un-excited auxiliary input modes, and on-off photon detection. Our results indicate that these currently-available optical components are near optimal for unambiguous discrimination of multiple coherent states in a constellation.
We investigate chains of d dimensional quantum spins (qudits) on a line with generic nearest neighbor interactions without translational invariance. We find the conditions under which these systems are not frustrated, i.e. when the ground states are
also the common ground states of all the local terms in the Hamiltonians. The states of a quantum spin chain are naturally represented in the Matrix Product States (MPS) framework. Using imaginary time evolution in the MPS ansatz, we numerically investigate the range of parameters in which we expect the ground states to be highly entangled and find them hard to approximate using our MPS method.
We propose an oversimplified scheme to unambiguously discriminate nonorthogonal quantum field states inside high-Q cavities. Our scheme, which is based on positive operator-valued mea- sures (POVM) technique, uses a single three-level atom interactin
g resonantly with a single mode of a cavity-field and selective atomic state detectors. While the single three-level atom takes the role of the ancilla, the single cavity mode field represents the system we want to obtain information. The efficiency of our proposal is analyzed considering the nowadays achievements in the context of cavity QED.
