title = "Bounds on mixed state entanglement",
abstract = "In the general framework of d1 x d2 mixed states, we derive an explicit bound for bipartite negative partial transpose (NPT) entanglement based on the mixedness characterization of the physical system. The derived result is very general, being based only on the assumption of finite dimensionality. In addition, it turns out to be of experimental interest since some purity-measuring protocols are known. Exploiting the bound in the particular case of thermal entanglement, a way to connect thermodynamic features to the monogamy of quantum correlations is suggested, and some recent results on the subject are given a physically clear explanation.",

Our result is quite general, holding for arbitrary bipartitions of an also arbitrary s2ystem. Indeed, our work concerns any bipartite quantum system of finite dimension.

The same is true for the states considered: our results apply to any quantum state of finite-sized bipartite quantum systems.

Inspired by the seminal paper of Popescu, Short, and Winter [29], our conclusions highlight the interplay between quantum entanglement inside a thermalized system The function l(A, B) at the extremal points of its domain and its physical properties.
