contents The problem of determining whether two states are equivalent by local unitary (LU) operations is important for quantum information processing. In this paper we propose an alternative perspective to study this problem by comparing the decidabilities of LU equivalence (also known as LU decidabilities for short) between entanglement witnesses and states. We introduce a relation between sets of Hermitian operators in terms of the LU decidability. Then we compare the LU decidability for the set of entanglement witness to those decidabilities for several sets of states, and establish a hierarchy on LU decidabilities for these sets. Moreover, we realize that the simultaneous LU (SLU) equivalence between tuples of mutually orthogonal projectors is crucial to LU equivalent operators. We reveal by examples that for two tuples of projectors, the partial SLU equivalence cannot ensure the overall SLU equivalence. Generally, we present a necessary and sufficient condition such that two tuples of states are SLU equivalent.
