Given a collection of states (rho_1, ..., rho_N) with pairwise fidelities F(rho_i, rho_j) <= F < 1, we show the existence of a POVM that, given rho_i^{otimes n}, will identify i with probability >= 1-epsilon, as long as n>=2(log N/eps)/log (1/F). This improves on previous results which were either dimension-dependent or required that i be drawn from a known distribution.

  1. Pretty simple bounds on quantum state discrimination

    quant-ph 2019-08 accept novelty 5.0 of 10

    An explicit pretty-good-measurement protocol solves worst-case quantum state discrimination with O(log n) copies for low-fidelity mixed states and with a Gram-matrix-dependent copy count for pure states.
