Abstract

An entangled basis with fixed Schmidt number kk (EBk) is a set of orthonormal basis states with the same Schmidt number kk in a product Hilbert space CdCd\mathbb{C}^d\otimes\mathbb{C}^{d'}. It is a generalization of both the product basis and the maximally entangled basis. We show here that, for any kmin{d,d}k\leq\min\{d,d'\}, EBk exists in CdCd\mathbb{C}^d\otimes\mathbb{C}^{d'} for any dd and dd'. Consequently, general methods of constructing SEBk (EBk with the same Schmidt coefficients) and EBk (but not SEBk) are proposed. Moreover, we extend the concept of EBk to multipartite case and find out that the multipartite EBk can be constructed similarly.
