In classical mechanics, performing a measurement without reading the measurement outcome is equivalent to not exploiting the measurement at all. A non-selective measurement in the classical realm carries no information. Here we show that…

A set of orthogonal product states is said to exhibit "quantum nonlocality without entanglement" if it is locally indistinguishable, i.e. no sequence of local operations and classical communication (LOCC) can perfectly discriminate the…
