Indecomposable Positive Maps and a New Family of Inseparable PPT States

Sudhavathani Simon, S. P. Rajagopalan, R. Simon

We present a new class of entangled bipartite states. These remain positive under partial transposition, and hence live outside the jurisdiction of the Peres‐Horodecki separability criterion. Their inseparability is demonstrated using Choi‐type indecomposable positive maps. It is shown that these states are not isolated, but occupy a finite volume in the bipartite state space. It is further shown that in the space of positive maps there exists a neighborhood around the Choi map with the property that every map in this neighborhood is indecomposable.

A sufficient and necessary criterion for separability of bipartite quantum states

Hui Zhao, Xinyu Yu

A sufficient and necessary criterion for separability of bipartite quantum states is presented. We construct a class of mixed states in 2 ⊗ k quantum systems and in 3 ⊗ k quantum systems, respectively and show that these states are separable if and only if they are positive partial transpositions.

A Separability of mixed states: necessary and sufficient conditions

Michał Horodecki, Paweł Horodecki, Ryszard Horodecki

We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the separability of mixed states. As a result we obtain a simple criterion of the separability for 2 x 2 and 2 x 3 systems. Here, the positivity of the partial transposition of a state is necessary and sufficient for its separability. However, this is not the case in general. Some examples of mixtures which demonstrate the utility of the criterion are considered.
