Conjugate-state steering from a maximally entangled pair

ID: conjugate-state-steering-from-a-maximally-entangled-pair

For and normalized , contraction of the first factor gives . Hence a rank-one projective measurement outcome occurs with probability and leaves the other subsystem in the coordinatewise complex conjugate state . The complex conjugation refers to the paired bases defining ; it must not be omitted for a complex measurement vector. Conditioning is essential: the unconditional reduced density matrix remains .
