Description
Summary:We theoretically investigate parameter quantum estimation in quantum chaotic systems. Our analysis is based on an effective description of non-integrable quantum systems in terms of a random matrix Hamiltonian. Based on this approach we derive an analytical expression for the time evolution of the quantum Fisher information. We test our random matrix theory prediction with the exact diagonalization of a non-integrable spin system, focusing on the estimation of a local magnetic field by measurements of the many-body state. Our numerical calculations agree with the effective random matrix theory approach and show that the information on the local Hamiltonian parameter is distributed throughout the quantum system during the quantum thermalization process. Our analysis shows a first stage in which the initial information spread is quadratic in time which quickly passes into linear increase with slope determine by the decay rate of the measured spin observable. When the information is fully spread among all degrees of freedom a second quadratic time scale determines the long time behaviour of the quantum Fisher information.
