Abstract
Entangled Markov chains, which can be recognized as quantum Markov chains in the sense of $[1|$ , were $inti^{\vee}oduced$ by Accardi and Fidaleo in order to extend the notion of classical random walk to quaritum systems.In [3], using our entanglement criterion for pure states [16] which is based on the notion of the quantum mutual information, we proved that the vector states defining the EMC's on infinite tensor products of matrix algebra $||generically^{I\dagger}$ are entangled.On the other hand we showed that this entanglement condition for pure state is sufficient condition for entanglement in the case of mixtures [4].This fact was then applied to prove that EMC with unitarily im- plementable transition operator induce a mixture entangled state on any local algebra.Interestingly it was also shown that all these local states provide a new class of examples (in any dimension) of entangled states which nevertheless satisfy the PPT condition [4].In this article we report the above results.
