Separability and the stella octangula

A geometrical picture of separability of 2× 2 composite quantum systems, showing the region of separable density matrices in the space of hermitian matrices, is given. It rests on the criterion of separability given by Peres [1], and it is an extension of the “Horodecki diagram” [2] and the “stella octangula” described by Aravind [3]. An illustration of which composite quantum states that are s...
