In this paper, we study the number of rounds of communication needed to implement certain tasks by local quantum operations and classical communication (LOCC). We find that the class of LOCC operations becomes strictly more powerful as more…

Given a protocol ${\cal P}$ that implements multipartite quantum channel ${\cal E}$ by repeated rounds of local operations and classical communication (LOCC), we construct an alternate LOCC protocol for ${\cal E}$ in no more rounds than…

Nonlocality exhibited by ensembles of composite quantum states, wherein local operations and classical communication (LOCC) yield suboptimal discrimination probabilities compared to global strategies, is one of the striking nonclassical…

We consider deeply the relation between the orthogonality and the distinguishability of a set of arbitrary states (including multi-partite states). It is shown that if a set of arbitrary states can be distinguished by local operations and…

Irreversibility between preparation and discrimination processes is manifested in the indistinguishability of orthogonal product states via local operations and classical communication (LOCC). Characterizing quantum properties for sets of…

We present a method of determining important properties of a shared bipartite quantum state, within the ``distant labs'' paradigm, using \emph{only} local operations and classical communication (LOCC). We apply this procedure to spectrum…

The search for a simple description of fundamental physical processes is an important part of quantum theory. One example for such an abstraction can be found in the distance lab paradigm: if two separated parties are connected via a…

Observations of quantum systems carried out by finite observers who subsequently communicate their results using classical data structures can be described as "local operations, classical communication" (LOCC) observations. The…

The paper studies unambiguous discrimination of Fermionic states through local operations and classical communication (LOCC). In the task of unambiguous discrimination, no error is tolerated but an inconclusive result is allowed. We show…
