Fast rate estimation of an unitary operation in SU(d)

Abstract

We give an explicit procedure based on entangled input states for estimating a $SU(d)$ operation $U$ with rate of convergence $1/N^2$ when sending $N$ particles through the device. We prove that this rate is optimal. We also evaluate the constant $C$ such that the asymptotic risk is $C/N^2$. However other strategies might yield a better const ant $C$.
