Summary: | The quantum state discrimination problem is ubiquitous in quantum information and serves as the foundation for many quantum communication schemes proposed so far. This paper investigates the optimal discrimination of three symmetric quantum states with equal prior probabilities. To obtain completely accessible information about the input pure states, this strategy makes improvements to the two standard strategies of quantum state discrimination, namely the minimum error discrimination and unambiguous discrimination. The new discrimination strategy proposed in this paper can be applied to both linearly independent and dependent quantum states. |
