As a result, as suggested by the previous works, the asymptotic relative entropy of entanglement in two qubits does not exceed the Rains bound, and the PPT-entanglement cost for any two-qubit state is determined to be the logarithmic negativity of the state. Further, the proof reveals some geometrical characteristics of the entangled states, and shows that the partial transposition can give another separable approximation of the entangled state in two qubits.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v3", "updated": "2003-11-11T12:17:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "entangled state", "binegativity", "two-qubit state", "ppt-entanglement cost", "logarithmic negativity" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
