Enhanced Quantum Metrology via Saddle-Point Scrambling in Phase Space
arXiv:2610.17047 · doi:10.1103/4sn5-ngdg
Abstract
Nonlinear effects are widely utilized in quantum metrology to enhance measurement precision by leveraging complex dynamical behaviors. Here, we propose a quantum scrambling-integrated scheme that optimizes the selection of initial states and parameter encoding by exploiting the nonlinear dynamical trajectories and their geometric properties in phase space. We consider a two-mode Bose-Einstein condensate as a typical example. Within a certain parameter range, using uncorrelated spin coherent states located at saddle points and separatrices enables the measurement precision to reach the Heisenberg scaling. An analytical expression for the quantum Fisher information under long-time evolution is provided, and our analysis further reveals that the enhancement mechanism is governed by the sensitivity of the energy spectrum to parameter variations. Compared to the criticality-enhanced protocol that requires parameters to approach the critical point, our scheme offers a distinct advantage in its applicability over a broader range of parameters. Moreover, this scheme can also be applied to models that include one- and two-axis countertwisting interactions and chaotic dynamics. This Letter offers a new perspective for advancing the application of nonlinear dynamics to enhance the parameter estimation precision in quantum systems.
