| contents | Quantum many-body interactions can induce quantum entanglement among particles, rendering them valuable resources for quantum-enhanced sensing. In this work, we derive a universal and fundamental bound for the growth of the quantum Fisher information. We apply our bound to the metrological protocol requiring only separable initial states, which can be readily prepared in experiments. By establishing a link between our bound and the Lieb-Robinson bound, which characterizes the operator growth in locally interacting quantum many-body systems, we prove that the precision cannot surpass the shot noise limit at all times in locally interacting quantum systems. This conclusion also holds for an initial state that is the non-degenerate ground state of a local and gapped Hamiltonian. These findings strongly hint that when one can only prepare separable initial states, nonlocal and long-range interactions are essential resources for surpassing the shot noise limit. This observation is confirmed through numerical analysis on the long-range Ising model. Our results bridge the field of many-body quantum sensing and operator growth in many-body quantum systems and open the possibility to investigate the interplay between quantum sensing and control, many-body physics and information scrambling |
