Abstract
We introduce the notion of the unextendible maximally entangled basis (UMEB), a set of orthonormal maximally entangled states in consisting of fewer than vectors which have no additional maximally entangled vectors orthogonal to all of them. We prove that UMEBs do not exist for and give explicit constructions for a six-member UMEB with and a 12-member UMEB with .
