Information-tradeoff relations for finite-strength quantum measurements

Information-tradeoff relations for finite-strength quantum measurements

In this paper we give a new way to quantify the folklore notion that quantum measurements bring a disturbance to the system being measured. We consider two observers who initially assign identical mixed-state density operators to a two-state quantum system. The question we address is to what extent one observer …
