The main objective of this paper is to discuss correspondence between the concept of entanglement witnesses (self-adjoint operators on a composite Hilbert space [Formula: see text] that are, in general, not positive, but are positive on separable states) and positive maps [Formula: see text] which are not completely positive. The notion of minimal length of linear positive map is introduced and the role of this quantity in the constructing of entanglement witnesses is explained.

In this paper we analyze entanglement classification of relaxed Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger-symmetric states $\rho^{ES}$, which is parametrized by four real parameters $x$, $y_1$, $y_2$ and $y_3$. The condition for separable states of $\rho^{ES}$ is analytically derived. The higher classes such as bi-separable, W, and Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger classes are roughly classified by making use of the class-specific optimal witnesses or map from the relaxed Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger symmetry to the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger symmetry. From this analysis we guess that the entanglement classes of $\rho^{ES}$ are not dependent on $y_j \hspace{.2cm} (j=1,2,3)$ individually, but dependent on $y_1 + y_2 + y_3$ collectively. The difficulty arising in extension of analysis with Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger symmetry to the higher-qubit system is discussed.

As instructors we expect our students to understand what the numbers they generate “mean”. We expect them to be able to visualize, in real or virtual terms, some physical approximation of the “things” they are working with. This visualization provides the basis for a “logic check” on their calculations.Our profession is founded on our ability to specify, within imposed constraints, the physical and functional characteristics of a system that will provide a safe, affordable solution to a problem. Students need to develop and refine this capacity during their undergraduate education. As simple as that may seem to those of us who have experienced the realities of our particular areas of expertise, it is not intuitive. Virtually all academic engineers lament the fact that students regularly submit answers that make no physical sense. The twin questions this issue raises are:1. why do so many students seem to lack an understanding of what their computer generated numbers mean?, and2. how can we help them gain the understanding we want them to have?

AbstractA one-sided shift of finite type $(\mathsf{X}_{A},\unicode[STIX]{x1D70E}_{A})$ determines on the one hand a Cuntz–Krieger algebra ${\mathcal{O}}_{A}$ with a distinguished abelian subalgebra ${\mathcal{D}}_{A}$ and a certain completely positive map $\unicode[STIX]{x1D70F}_{A}$ on ${\mathcal{O}}_{A}$. On the other hand, $(\mathsf{X}_{A},\unicode[STIX]{x1D70E}_{A})$ determines a groupoid ${\mathcal{G}}_{A}$ together with a certain homomorphism $\unicode[STIX]{x1D716}_{A}$ on ${\mathcal{G}}_{A}$. We show that each of these two sets of data completely characterizes the one-sided conjugacy class of $\mathsf{X}_{A}$. This strengthens a result of Cuntz and Krieger. We also exhibit an example of two irreducible shifts of finite type which are eventually conjugate but not conjugate. This provides a negative answer to a question of Matsumoto of whether eventual conjugacy implies conjugacy.

In this paper, we introduce EPOSIC channels, a class of SU(2)-covariant quantum channels. For each of them, we give a Kraus representation, its Choi matrix, a complementary channel, and its dual map. We show that they are the extreme points of all SU(2)-irreducibly covariant channels. As an application of these channels, we get an example of a positive map that is not completely positive.
