Penalization Methods in Quantum Tomography

aula DOTTORATO - GIOVedì 3 MARZO ore 11.00
  JONAS KAHN, Université Paris-Sud 11

>PRESENTATION:
Jonas Kahn entered the École Normale Supérieure in 2001, and followed there both the mathematics and the physics cursus.
He graduated in Probability and Statistics at Orsay (Paris-Sud) with a master's thesis under the direction of Pascal MASSART and the close scrutiny of Richard GILL, on “Quantum Tomography”.
He has begun a PhD thesis along those lines.

Abstract  
  Quantum tomography of the harmonic oscillator is an infinite-dimensional statistical problem. Use of methods such as projection estimators (pattern functions) therefore require that you restrict your attention to a finite-dimensional submodel.
Penalization is a way to select a good submodel.
By looking at the energy of the state, you may then get approximation speeds, that you can extend to quantum calibration of measuring apparatuses.
