Quantum information cannot be split into complementary parts
  We prove a new impossibility for quantum information (the no-splitting theorem): an unknown quantum bit (qubit) cannot be split into two complementary qubits. This impossibility, together with the no-cloning theorem, demonstrates that an unknown qubit state is a single entity, which cannot be cloned or split. This sheds new light on quantum computation and quantum information.
