We derive the optimal positive operator-valued measure corresponding to the multiple-phase estimation. In particular, we discuss the explicit case of the optimal detection of double phase for a system of identical qutrits and generalise these results to optimal multiple phase detection for d-dimensional quantum states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-04-18T11:13:47.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "optimal estimation", "optimal multiple phase detection", "positive operator-valued measure corresponding", "d-dimensional quantum states", "phase shifts" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
