摘要:This paper concerns the design problem of choosing the measurement that
provides the maximum Fisher information for the unknown parameter of a
quantum system.
We show that when the system under investigation is described by a one-
parameter n-dimensional pure state model an optimal measurement exists,
such that Fisher information attains the upper bound constituted by Hel-
strom information. A characterisation theorem and two strategies of im-
plementations are derived and discussed. These results generalise to n-
dimensional spaces those obtained for n = 2 by Barndorff-Nielsen and Gill
(2000).
