It is shown that local distinguishability of orthogonal mixed states can be completely characterized by local distinguishability of their supports irrespective of entanglement and mixedness of the states. This leads to two kinds of upper…

Quantum data hiding stores classical information in bipartite quantum states that are, in principle, perfectly distinguishable, yet remain almost indistinguishable without access to a quantum communication channel. Here, we investigate…
We explicitly exhibit a set of four ququad-ququad orthogonal maximally entangled states that cannot be perfectly distinguished by means of local operations and classical communication. Before our work, it was unknown whether there is a set…
A bipartite state which is secretly chosen from a finite set of known entangled pure states cannot be immediately useful in standard quantum information processing tasks. To effectively make use of the entanglement contained in this unknown…

The possibility of masking an accelerated two-qubit system by using a minimum number of qubits is discussed. It is shown that, the information may be masked in either entangled local states or product non-local separable states. We examine…
We study the distinguishability of a particular type of maximally entangled states -- the "lattice states" using a new approach of semidefinite program. With this, we successfully construct all sets of four ququad-ququad orthogonal…
We relate the phenomenon of local indistinguishability of orthogonal states with the properties of unextendibility and uncompletability of entangled bases for bipartite and multipartite quantum systems. We prove that all two-qubit…
The structure of quantum theory assures the discrimination of any possible orthogonal set of states. However, the scenario becomes highly nontrivial in the limited measurement setting and leads to different classes of impossibility, viz.,…
More than two multipartite orthogonal states cannot always be discriminated (with certainty) if only local operations and classical communication (LOCC) are allowed. Using an existing inequality among the measures of entanglement, we show…
In quantum state discrimination, the observers are given a quantum system and aim to verify its state from the two or more possible target states. In the local quantum state marking as an extension of quantum state discrimination, there are…
We consider bipartite quantum state discrimination and present a quantum data-hiding scheme utilizing an orthogonal separable state ensemble. Using a bound on local minimum-error discrimination, we provide a sufficient condition for the…
We investigate the entanglement properties of pure quantum states describing $n$ qubits. We characterize all multipartite states which can be maximally entangled to local auxiliary systems using controlled operations. A state has this…
The relation between entanglement and nonlocality is discussed in the case of multipartite quantum systems. We show that, for any number of parties, there exist genuinely multipartite entangled states which admit a fully local hidden…
The (im)possibility of local distinguishability of orthogonal multipartite quantum states still remains an intriguing question. Beyond $\mathbb{C}^{3}\otimes\mathbb{C}^{3}$, the problem remains unsolved even for maximally entangled states…
Two pure orthogonal quantum states can be perfectly distinguished by sequential local action of multiple pairs of parties. However, this process typically leads to the complete dissolution of entanglement in the states being discriminated.…
According to usual definitions, entangled states cannot be given a separable decomposition in terms of products of local density operators. If we relax the requirement that the local density operators be positive, then an entangled quantum…
We address the question of whether or not global entanglement of a quantum state can be inferred from local properties. Specifically, we are interested in genuinely multiparticle entangled states whose two-body marginals are all separable,…
We discuss several aspects of multiparticle mixed state entanglement and its experimental detection. First we consider entanglement between two particles which is robust against disposals of other particles. To completely detect these kinds…
