We investigate separability and entanglement measure for quantum states. On the one hand, we devote to find methods to characterize separable states and present some necessary conditions for separability of mixed states. For pure states the separability is quite well understood. However, for the case of mixed states, no single practical procedure that can be guaranteed to detect the entanglement of every states has been found.Using the generator of SU(N), any bipartite state can be represented by ρAB =be the Bloch sphere representation ofρAB which is in the subsystem S(HM), where (r1,r2···rM2-1) ∈ RM2-1 be a vectorof dim M2 - 1. Then we get.For a bipartite separable state ρAB, which is of M × N dimension, it can be written in the following form: .By defining thetransformation R of Mi, we get a new operator γRAB). We proved that the modular of the Bloch vector in the subsystem S(HM) of ρAB is no more than the modular of the original Bloch vector, that is (|ri|)|'≤(|ri|)|'.For M=3, we extract a special transformation R and by the condition γRAB)≥0 we get PPT criterion.We discuss the question of entanglement measure. For a bipartite pure state, a good measure of entanglement is the von Neumann entropy. For mixed states there is no unique entanglement measure. In recent years, a number of entanglement measures to quantify entanglement has been proposed. We mainly discuss the entanglement of formation. Under the lower dimension condition, Wootters et al proved that there is a monotone relation between the entanglement of formation and concurrence. We investigate a generator of the special unitary group SU(N) using the projector operators Pjk. By using these generators, we get the generalized...
