Let

If contains a left exterior triple , then

satisfies

The equality holds for arbitrary inputs, including spectator correlations and arbitrary external references.

If contains a triple on each side, applying both inverse unitaries and discarding their joining and auxiliary registers recovers the entire two-qubit bulk exactly.

Proof. Trace the entire right exterior output in (eq:W). Because is isometric, this is equivalent to tracing . The left joining register is then , independent of the remaining state on and its reference. Applying Lemma lem:patchidentity gives

This is an operator identity and proves (eq:subsystemexact).

For two triples, the two inverse unitaries return

Tracing the indicated registers returns . All steps commute with adjoining an untouched reference.
