Abstract
The Schmidt number of a state of an infinite-dimensional composite quantum system is defined and several properties of the corresponding Schmidt classes are considered. It is shown that there are states with given Schmidt number such that any of their countable convex decompositions does not contain pure states of finite Schmidt rank. The classes of infinite-dimensional partially entanglement-breaking channels are considered, and generalizations of several properties of such channels, which were obtained earlier in the finite-dimensional case, are proved. At the same time, it is shown that there are partially entanglement-breaking channels (in particular, entanglement-breaking channels) such that all the operators in any of their Kraus representations are of infinite rank.
