Quantum sensing networks for the estimation of linear functions

Jesús Rubio, Paul A Knott, Timothy J Proctor +1

The theoretical framework for networked quantum sensing has been developed to a great extent in the past few years, but there are still a number of open questions. Among these, a p…

Decoherence, quantum Darwinism, and the generic emergence of our objective classical reality

P. A. Knott

In this article I aim to provide an intuitive and non-technical introduction to decoherence and quantum Darwinism. Together these theories explain how our classical reality emerges…

A hybrid machine-learning algorithm for designing quantum experiments

L. O'Driscoll, R. Nichols, P. A. Knott

We introduce a hybrid machine-learning algorithm for designing quantum optics experiments that produce specific quantum states. Our algorithm successfully found experimental scheme…

Generic emergence of objectivity of observables in infinite dimensions

Paul A. Knott, Tommaso Tufarelli, Marco Piani +1

Quantum Darwinism posits that information becomes objective whenever multiple observers indirectly probe a quantum system by each measuring a fraction of the environment. It was re…

Non-asymptotic analysis of quantum metrology protocols beyond the Cramér-Rao bound

Jesús Rubio, Paul Knott, Jacob Dunningham

Many results in the quantum metrology literature use the Cramér-Rao bound and the Fisher information to compare different quantum estimation strategies. However, there are several…

Networked quantum sensing

T. J. Proctor, P. A. Knott, J. A. Dunningham

We introduce a general model for a network of quantum sensors, and we use this model to consider the question: when do correlations (quantum or classical) between quantum sensors e…
