Systematic construction of multiqubit unextendible product bases

Abstract

The construction of multiqubit unextendible product bases (UPBs) has been a long-standing problem. We give a systematic construction of multiqubit UPBs by studying their unextendible orthogonal matrices (UOMs) with graph-theoretic methods. Row decompositions of small UOMs produce the main intervals. Com- pletion graphs settle the remaining small UPB sizes, except for one size obtained from a good column structure. Nonexistence of the other UPB sizes follows from counts of fibres and row pairs. The computer is used only for a few finite UOM checks, whose exact tests are stated in the certificate appendix. These arguments determine the complete multiqubit UPB size spectrum in every dimension.
