Abstract
We investigate different quantum parameter estimation scenarios in the presence of noise, and identify optimal probe states. For frequency estimation of local Hamiltonians with dephasing noise, we determine optimal probe states for up to 70 qubits, and determine their key properties. We find that the so-called one-axis twisted spin-squeezed states are only almost optimal, and that optimal states need not to be spin-squeezed. For different kinds of noise models, we investigate whether optimal states in the noiseless case remain superior to product states also in the presence of noise. For certain spatially and temporally correlated noise, we find that product states no longer allow one to reach the standard quantum limit in precision, while certain entangled states do. Our conclusions are based on numerical evidence using efficient numerical algorithms which we developed in order to treat permutational invariant systems.
