Résumé

The logarithmic derivative (or quantum score) of a positive definite density matrix appearing in the quantum Fisher information has been discussed, and its exact expression has been presented. The problem of estimating the parameters in a class of the Werner-type $N$-qudit states has been studied in the context of the quantum Cramér-Rao inequality. The largest value of the lower bound to the error of estimate by the quantum Fisher information has been shown to coincide with the separability point only in the case of two qubits. It has been found, on the other hand, that such largest values give rise to the universal fidelity that is independent of the system size.
