Proof that Bell state can be transformed into any 2-qubit state $\vert\psi\rangle$ under LU
In the Dür, 2000 paper, he gave a statement that
(...) Any state $\vert\psi\rangle$ can be obtained from Bell State with certainty
From his paper too, it's known that we can transform $\vert\psi\...

How Quickly Can We Entangle a Pair of Unentangled Qubits Without Using Pre-existing Entanglement?
The Set-Up
Let's say we want to entangle two qubits $\phi_a,\phi_b$ (at locations $a$ and $b$ respectively) that are spatially separated by distance $d$ (in natural units) at a given instance of time.

Can EPR pairs be established with only classical communication?
EPR pairs are used in superdense coding and quantum teleportation, but these protocols assume that Alice & Bob "share" half of an entangled quantum state.
How does this "sharing&...

Show that any two product states of the same dimension are LU-equivalent
States $|Ψ \rangle$, $|Φ\rangle$ on $C_d⊗C_{d′}$ are said to be equivalent up to Local Unitarities (LU-equivalent) if there exist unitaries $U : C_d → C_d$ and $V : C_{d′} → C_{d′}$
such that:

Filtering operation is trace decreasing?
Let $\rho$ is a bipartite state.
W is a local filtering operation that acts on a subsystem of the state $\rho$.
After the local filtering operation $\rho$ emerges into a $\tilde{\rho}$ i.e
$\tilde{\...

Is there a non-deterministic protocol for entanglement generation between distant parties?
I'm aware that one can imperfectly clone entanglement that's shared between two parties (i.e. Bell pairs) using deterministic quantum cloning machines to produce two, lower fidelity entangled states.

Why can any LOCC operation be written as $\sum_k (A_k\otimes B_k)\rho(A_k^\dagger\otimes B_k^\dagger)$?
This statement can be found in Vedral et al. 1997, eq. (1).
More precisely, given a bipartite state $\rho_{AB}$, they claim that any operation on $\rho_{AB}$ involving local operations plus classical ...
