Irreversibility in asymptotic manipulations of entanglement

arXiv:quant-ph/0102036 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.86.5803

Abstract

We show that the process of entanglement distillation is irreversible by showing that the entanglement cost of a bound entangled state is finite. Such irreversibility remains even if extra pure entanglement is loaned to assist the distillation process.
