Unextendible maximally entangled bases

Abstract

We introduce the notion of the unextendible maximally entangled basis (UMEB), a set of orthonormal maximally entangled states in d × d consisting of fewer that d2 vectors which have no additional maximally entangled vectors orthogonal to all of them. We prove that UMEBs don't not exist for d=2 and give an explicit constructions for a 6-member UMEB with d=3 and a 12-member UMEB with d=4.
