Conjugate-state steering from a maximally entangled pair ((⟨u∣⊗I)∣Φd​⟩=∣u⟩/d​)

For ∣Φd​⟩=d−1/2∑i​∣ii⟩ and normalized ∣u⟩=∑i​ui​∣i⟩, contraction of the first factor gives d−1/2∑i​ui​​∣i⟩. Hence a rank-one projective measurement outcome u occurs with probability 1/d and leaves the other subsystem in the coordinatewise complex conjugate state ∣u⟩. The complex conjugation refers to the paired bases defining ∣Φd​⟩; it must not be omitted for a complex measurement vector. Conditioning is essential: the unconditional reduced density matrix remains I/d.
