Verification of quantum-domain process using two non-orthogonal states
  If a quantum channel or process cannot be described by any measure-and-prepare scheme, we may say the channel is in \textit{quantum domain} (QD) since it can transmit quantum correlations. The concept of QD clarifies the role of quantum channel in quantum information theory based on the local-operation-and-classical-communication (LOCC) paradigm: The quantum channel is only useful if it cannot be simulated by LOCC. We construct a simple scheme to verify that a given physical process or channel is in QD by using two non-orthogonal states. We also consider the application for the experiments such as the transmission or storage of quantum optical coherent states, single-photon polarization states, and squeezed vacuum states.
