By extending the technique developed in one of our recent works, the canonical forms for the mixed $N$-partite entangled states are constructed where they have inherited local unitary symmetries from their corresponding $N+1$ pure state counterparts. A systematic scheme to express the local symmetries of the canonical form is also presented, which provides a feasible way of verifying the local unitary equivalence for two multipartite entangled states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2013-02-28T09:40:30.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.67.-a", "03.65.Ud", "02.10.Xm" ], "keywords": [ "arbitrary multipartite entangled states", "local unitary equivalence", "canonical form", "classification", "arbitrary dimensional multipartite entangled states" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1088/1751-8113/46/7/075301", "journal": "Journal of Physics A Mathematical General", "year": 2013, "month": "Feb", "volume": 46, "number": 7, "pages": "075301" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 22, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 946677, "adsabs": "2013JPhA...46g5301L" } } }
