Abstract
Determining the state of a quantum system is a central task in quantum information processing since it encompasses the read-out problem. Very often the optimized state discrimination strategy is a generalized measurement (Positive Operator Valued Measure, POVM). Therefore, we begin with a brief introduction to the theory of generalized measurements and illustrate the power of the concept on examples relevant to applications in quantum cryptography.
