In this paper we address a question whether local operations (without classical communication) affect the entanglement-induced state ordering. We show that arbitrary unilocal channel (i.e., a channel that acts on one sub-system of a bi-partite system only) might change the ordering for an arbitrary nontrivial measure of entanglement. A slightly weaker result holds for the maximally entangled states. In particular, the maximally entangled states might not remain the most entangled ones at the output of a unilocal noise channel.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-07-30T12:55:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "local operations", "state ordering", "entanglement measures", "maximally entangled states", "unilocal noise channel" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 9, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0707.4401Z" } } }
