Local Unitary Invariants for Multipartite States

Abstract

We study the invariants of arbitrary dimensional multipartite quantum states under local unitary transformations. For multipartite pure states, we give a set of invariants in terms of singular values of coefficient matrices. For multipartite mixed states, we propose a set of invariants in terms of the trace of coefficient matrices. For full rank mixed states with non-degenerate eigenvalues, this set of invariants is also the set of the necessary and sufficient conditions for the local unitary equivalence of such two states.
