Quantum physics research establishes tight lower bounds for state tomography

Researchers have established tight lower bounds for state tomography, a process used in quantum physics to determine the properties of quantum states. The new bounds, which apply when measurements are limited to a small number of quantum copies and retain no memory between blocks, match existing upper bounds. This work removes previous restrictions on the number of copies used and is applicable even in neighborhoods of certain quantum states. AI

    Tight Lower Bounds for State Tomography with Limited Entanglement

    arXiv:2609.05718v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study state tomography when each measurement acts on at most $k$ fresh copies and no quantum memory is retained between blocks. We prove a lower bound matching the upper bound in [arXiv:2510.07788]. Thus the copy complexity of …
