We propose a numerical algorithm for finding optimal measurements for quantum-state discrimination. The theory of the semidefinite programming provides a simple check of the optimality of the numerically obtained results.

When an optimal measurement is made on a qubit and what we call an Unbiased Mixture of the resulting ensembles is taken, then the post measurement density matrix is shown to be related to the pre-measurement density matrix through a simple…

A density operator of a bipartite quantum system is called robustly separable if it has a neighborhood of separable operators. Given a bipartite density matrix, its property to be robustly separable is reduced, using the continuous ensemble…
