For tetrapartite state, and another way of decomposition, is the Schmidt basis separable?

Consider two tetrapartite quantum states $|\phi\rangle^{AA^\prime BB^\prime}$ and $|\psi_1\rangle^{AA^\prime}|\psi_2\rangle^{BB^\prime}$ in a finite dimentional Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}^A\otimes\...

Does proximity of two bipartite states in a norm force high overlap between the elements of the Schmidt bases?

I want to know that there is a relation between the distance of two vectors and the corresponding elements of the Schmidt bases. We assume that two bipartite vectors $|\phi\rangle^{AB}$ and $|\psi\...

Prove that there are infinitely many entanglement classes under LU

Dur, 2000 states that (...)But even in the simplest systems, $|\psi\rangle$ and $|\phi\rangle$ are typically not related by LU, and continuous parameters are needed to label all equivalence classes. ...

SWAPing Schmidt vectors

Can anything be said about the inner product of a bipartite entangled state with itself but with the Schmidt vectors swapped? That is, if the Schmidt decomposition of a state is given by $$\vert \psi \...

Truncating the bond dimension of an MPS -- how good is the approximation?

$\newcommand{\complex}{\mathbb{C}}\newcommand{\ket}[1]{|#1\rangle}$ Let $\ket{\psi}\in(\complex^d)^{\otimes n}$ be a pure quantum state. It is well-known that $\ket{\psi}$ is a matrix product state ...

How to check if a $n$-qubit unitary is the tensor product of single-qubit unitaries

Let's assume I give you the expression of a unitary matrix acting on two qubits that is: $$U=\sum_{i} A_i \otimes B_i$$ for some operators $A_i$ and $B_i$. Is there a simple criterion allowing you to ...

Schmidt decomposition for tripartite system $ABC$ with vanishing mutual information between $A$ and $C$

Suppose I have a tripartite system $ABC$ in a pure state $|\psi_{ABC}\rangle$ with mutual information $I(A:C)=0$. This implies that the reduced density matrix $\rho_{AC}$ factorizes as $\rho_{AC} = \...
