A few steps more towards NPT bound entanglement
PublicationIn this paper, existence of bound entangled states with nonpositive partial transpose (NPT) is considered. As one knows, existence of such states would in particular imply nonadditivity of distillable entanglement.

The particular state, known to be 1-copy nondistillable and supposed to be bound entangled, is considered. The problem of...
