Abstract
Braunstein and Caves have recently demonstrated that the Bures metric on the mixed quantum states is equivalent - up to a proportionality factor of four - to the statistical distinguishability or quantum Fisher information metric. The volume element of these metrics can then - adapting a fundamental Bayesian principle of Jeffreys to the quantum context - serve as a reparametrization-invariant prior measure over the quantum states. The implications of this line of reasoning for the two-level systems, in general, and an embedding of them into a certain set of three-level systems are investigated.
