When discriminating between two pure quantum states, there exists a quantitative trade-off between the information retrieved by the measurement and the disturbance caused on the unknown state. We derive the optimal trade-off and provide the corresponding quantum measurement. Such an optimal measurement smoothly interpolates between the two limiting cases of maximal information extraction and no measurement at all.

Abstract
When discriminating between two pure quantum states, there exists a quantitative trade-off between the information retrieved by the measurement and the disturbance caused on the unknown state. We derive the optimal trade-off and provide the corresponding quantum measurement. Such an optimal measurement smoothly interpolates between the two limiting cases of maximal information extraction and no measurement at all.File in questo prodotto:
