• Abstract: It is necessary to investigate the local distinguishability of orthogonal quantum state sets, as their adoption in protocol design helps diminish quantum state transmission and cut operational costs. In this paper, we explore the local distinguishability of six orthogonal product states (OPSs) on any bipartite quantum system. We classify different sets of six bipartite OPSs into eight categories by using the vectors of the numbers of pairwise orthogonality relations, where any two states are orthogonal on only one subsystem within each set. We find that these eight categories contain a total of 78 distinct cases, all but five of which are perfectly distinguishable via local operations and classical communication (LOCC). Furthermore, we discuss the local distinguishability of those five distinct cases in detail. Our work explicitly characterizes the local distinguishability of six bipartite OPSs.

  We construct a strongly nonlocal OPS in $mathcalCd_Aotimes mathcalCd_C$ $(d_A,B,Cgeq 4)$ and generalize the structures of known OPSs to any possible three and four-partite systems. It is shown that the protocols without teleportation use less entanglement resources on average and these sets can always be discriminated locally with multiple copies of 2-qubit maximally entangled states.

  In this letter, we provide examples of orthonormal bases in two-qubit Hilbert space whose adaptive discrimination require 3 copies of the state. We also come up with ensembles whose discrimination under adaptive separable scheme require less number of copies than adaptive local schemes. Our construction finds important application in multipartite secret sharing tasks and indicates towards an intriguing super-additivity phenomenon for locally accessible information.
