Sumario:The problem of quantum metrology in the context of a particular non-Markovian quantum evolution is explored. We study the dynamics of the quantum Fisher information (QFI) of a composite quantum probe coupled to a Lorentzian environment, for a full variety of different classes of parameters. We are able to find the best metrological state, which is not maximally entangled but is the one which evolves the most rapidly. This is shown by demonstrating a connection between QFI and different quantum speed limits. At the same time, by optimizing a control field acting on the probes, we show how the total information flow is actively manipulated by the control so as to enhance the parameter estimation at a given final evolution time. Finally, under this controlled scenario, a sharp interplay between the dynamics of QFI, non-Markovianity, and entanglement is revealed within different control schemes.
