Extremal covariant measurements
G. Chiribella, G. M. D'Ariano
abstract: We characterize the extremal points of the convex set of quantum measurements
that are covariant under a finite-dimensional projective representation of a
compact group, with action of the group on the measurement probability space
which is generally non-transitive. In this case the POVM density is made of
multiple orbits of positive operators, and, in the case of extremal
measurements, we provide a bound for the number of orbits and for the rank of
POVM elements. Two relevant applications are considered, concerning state
discrimination with mutually unbiased bases and the maximization of the mutual
information.
