量子计量学在单参数估计中可达到海森堡极限精度，但其多参数扩展受到参数编码和测量不相容性的根本限制。非对易信号发生器可能导致参数编码不相容，使量子费舍尔信息矩阵无法同时对所有参数达到海森堡标度；由于最优测量不相容，经典费舍尔信息矩阵代表实际可达到的精度。本文提出基于不确定演化（Indefinite Evolution, IE）的多参数计量学框架，将不同控制操作和信号反转置于相干叠加中。对于具有相互正交信号发生器的单量子比特探针，IE在无需信号反转的情况下实现兼容参数编码和最优测量；对于仅能通过自身发生器实现信号反转的并行发生器，IE可达到相同性能。我们进一步将该机制扩展至含噪声、多体及高维探针，建立实现同时海森堡极限的通用条件。相比之下，即使有信号反转，确定演化在兼容最优测量下也无法达到相同性能。本研究确定IE为克服多参数不相容性的操作资源，为干涉平台中可实现的海森堡极限传感开辟了路径。
英文摘要
Quantum metrology achieves Heisenberg-limited precision in single-parameter estimation, but its multiparameter extension is fundamentally constrained by both parameter-encoding and measurement incompatibility. Noncommuting signal generators may cause incompatible parameter-encoding, preventing the quantum Fisher information matrix from simultaneously achieving the Heisenberg scale for all parameters. Due to incompatible optimal measurements, the classical Fisher information matrix represents the practical attainable precision. Here, we introduce a multiparameter metrology framework based on indefinite evolution (IE), in which different control operations and signal reversal are placed in a coherent superposition. For a single-qubit probe with mutually orthogonal signal generators, IE enables compatible parameter encoding and optimal measurement without the signal reversal. For parallel generators, where only signal reversal realized by its generator is available, IE can achieve the same performance. We further extend this mechanism to noisy, many-body, and high-dimensional probes, and establish general conditions for achieving the simultaneous Heisenberg-limit. In contrast, definite evolution cannot achieve the same performance under compatible optimal measurements, even when signal reversal is available. Our results identify IE as an operational resource for overcoming multiparameter incompatibility and open a route toward attainable Heisenberg-limited sensing in interferometric platforms.
