The local distinguishability of any three generalized Bell states

Quantum Physics 2017-05-09 v1

Abstract

We study the problem of distinguishing maximally entangled quantum states by using local operations and classical communication (LOCC). A question of fundamental interest is whether any three maximally entangled states in CdCd(d4)\mathbb{C}^d\otimes\mathbb{C}^d (d\geq 4) are distinguishable by LOCC. In this paper, we restrict ourselves to consider the generalized Bell states. And we prove that any three generalized Bell states in CdCd(d4)\mathbb{C}^d\otimes\mathbb{C}^d (d\geq 4) are locally distinguishable.
