Abstract:
We consider an alternative formula for the negativity based on a simple generalization
of the concurrence. We use the formula to bound the amount of entanglement in a
superposition of two bipartite pure states of arbitrary dimension. Various examples
indicate that our bounds are tighter than the previously known results.
