Optimal quantum state identification with qudit-encoded unknown states

Ulrike Herzog

We consider the problem of optimally identifying the state of a probe qudit, prepared with given prior probability in a pure state belonging to a finite set of possible states whic…

A folded-sandwich polarization-entangled two-color photon pair source with large tuning capability for applications in hybrid quantum architectures

Otto Dietz, Chris Müller, Thomas Kreißl +4

We demonstrate a two-color entangled pho ton pair source which can be adapted easily to a wide range of wavelengths combinations. A Fresnel rhomb as a geometrical quarter-wave plat…

Optimal measurements for the discrimination of quantum states with a fixed rate of inconclusive results

Ulrike Herzog

We study the discrimination of N mixed quantum states in an optimal measurement that maximizes the probability of correct results while the probability of inconclusive results is f…

Optimal state discrimination with a fixed rate of inconclusive results: Analytical solutions and relation to state discrimination with a fixed error rate

Ulrike Herzog

We study an optimum measurement for quantum state discrimination, which maximizes the probability of correct results when the probability of inconclusive results is fixed at a give…

Optimized maximum-confidence discrimination of N mixed quantum states and application to symmetric states

Ulrike Herzog

We study an optimized measurement which discriminates N mixed quantum states occurring with given prior robabilities. The measurement yields the maximum achievable confidence for e…
