We address the problem of achieving a universal measuring apparatus that allows to estimate the expectation value of any arbitrary operator by changing only the data processing of the outcomes. The "universal detector" performs a joint measurement on the system and on a suitably prepared ancilla. We characterize such universal detectors, and show how they can be obtained either via Bell measurements or via local measurements and classical communication between system and ancilla.

Abstract
We address the problem of achieving a universal measuring apparatus that allows to estimate the expectation value of any arbitrary operator by changing only the data processing of the outcomes. The "universal detector" performs a joint measurement on the system and on a suitably prepared ancilla. We characterize such universal detectors, and show how they can be obtained either via Bell measurements or via local measurements and classical communication between system and ancilla.File in questo prodotto:
