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…
The n-qubit real equally weighted states are employed in some quantum algorithms including Deutsch-Jozsa, Grover, Simon, and so on. We qualitatively investigate the entanglement properties of n-qubit real equally weighted states. Firstly,…
The concept of entanglement splitting is introduced by asking whether it is possible for a party possessing half of a pure bipartite quantum state to transfer some of his entanglement with the other party to a third party. We describe the…
