Abstract

Linear maps : M n M k are called m -PPT if [(A i j )] m i, j=1 are positive partial transpose matrices for all positive semi-definite matrices

On Positive Partial Transpose Matrices

This paper mainly focuses on the class of $2 \times 2$ block PPT matrices. The relationship between PPT matrices and the norm inequalities is further explored. Some properties of a non-PPT matrix in terms of its eigenvalues are investigated. Moreover, a number of useful sufficient conditions for a matrix to be PPT are provided.

On positive and positive partial transpose matrices

İbrahim Halil Gümüş, Hamid Reza Moradi, Mohammad Sababheh

A block matrix $\left[ \begin{smallmatrix}A & X \\{{X}^{*}} & B \\\end{smallmatrix} \right]$ is positive partial transpose (PPT) if both $\left[ \begin{smallmatrix}A & X \\{{X}^{*}} & B \\\end{smallmatrix} \right]$ and $\left[ \begin{smallmatrix}A & {{X}^{*}} \\X & B \\\end{smallmatrix} \right]$ are positive semi-definite. This class is significant in studying the separability criterion for density matrices. The current paper presents new relations for such matrices. This includes some equivalent forms and new related inequalities that extend some results from the literature. In the end of the paper, we present some related results for positive semi-definite block matrices, which have similar forms as those presented for PPT matrices, with applications that include significant improvement of numerical radius inequalities.

A note on positive partial transpose blocks

Mohammad Alakhrass

In this article, we study the class of PPT blocks. We introduce several inequalities, related to this class, with an emphasis on comparing the main diagonal and the off-diagonal components of a 2 by 2 PPT block.

On a characterization of PPT states

W. A. Majewski

We present two different descriptions of positive partially transposed (PPT) states. One is based on the theory of positive maps while the second description provides a characterization of PPT states in terms of Hilbert space vectors. Our note is based on our previous results.

A Family of Completely PPT Maps

Kennett L. Dela Rosa, Iana Angela C. Fajardo, Cedie B. Reyes

Given $α\in \mathbb R$ and $ B_1,\ldots,B_q\in M_{m,n}$, consider the map \[Φ^{\pm}_{α,\mathfrak{B}}(X)=α\mbox{tr}(X) I_m\pm \sum_{s=1}^qB_sXB_s^*\ \mbox{for all}\ X\in M_n.\] In this study, necessary and sufficient conditions on $α$ and $B_1,\ldots,B_q$ are given that guarantee $Φ_{α,\mathfrak{B}}^\pm$ is $k$-positive, $k$-copositive, and $k$-PPT, respectively. As application, known results about the map $α\mbox{tr}(X)I_n\pm X$ are recovered. Furthermore, singular value inequalities associated with these positivity constraints are considered.
