Abstract: For a quantum state represented as an $nimesn$ density matrix $sigmain{M}_n$, let $calS(sigma)$ be the compact convex set of quantum states $ho=(h{o}_{ij})in{M}_{mcdotn}$ with the first partial trace equal to $sigma$, i.e., ${mtr}_1(ho)=h{o}_{11}+cdots+h{o}_{mm}=sigma$. It is known that if $mgen$ then there is a rank one matrix $hoincalS(sigma)$ satisfying ${mtr}_1(ho)=sigma$. If $m<n$, there may not be rank one matrix in $calS(sigma)$. In this paper, we determine the ranks of the elements and ranks of the extreme points of the set $calS$ We also determine $h{o}^{\ast }incalS(sigma)$ with rank bounded by $k$ such that $|{mtr}_{1}h{o}^{\ast })-sigma|$ is minimum for a given unitary similarity invariant norm $|cdot|$. Furthermore, the relation between the eigenvalues of $sigma$ and those of $hoincalS(sigma)$ is analyzed. Extension of our results and open problems will be mentioned.
