For identical particles they are invariant under permutations of the particles. As an application, we find the dimension of the generic local equivalence class.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v5", "updated": "2002-12-23T13:06:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.65.-w" ], "keywords": [ "schmidt decomposition", "multipartite generalisation", "generic local equivalence class", "general multipartite system", "factorisable orthonormal basis" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "AIP", "journal": "Journal of Mathematical Physics", "doi": "10.1063/1.1319516", "year": 2000, "month": "Dec", "volume": 41, "number": 12, "pages": 7932 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2000JMP....41.7932C" } } }
