Let and . Starting from the Bell state , Alice applies the measurement in quantum mechanics with Kraus operators displayed above. Completeness follows from . Each outcome has probability . The normalized outputs are and . Communicating the outcome allows both parties to apply a Pauli X gate in the second branch, making both outputs equal to the first. Thus this LOCC protocol deterministically converts one Bell pair into any two-qubit pure state with these Schmidt coefficients, after appropriate local unitary operations. It includes the product state endpoint without postselection.
