Abstract
We investigate the cases where a set of states cannot be cloned by itself, but is clonable with the help of another system prepared in state . When is pair-wise nonorthogonal, it is known that one can generate the copy from alone, with no interaction with the original system. Here we show that a set containing orthogonal pairs exhibits a property forming a striking contrast; For any such set, there is a choice of that enables cloning only when the two systems are interacted in a purely quantum manner that is not achievable via classical communication.
