Abstract
We demonstrate a general procedure to construct entanglement witnesses for any entangled state. This procedure is based on the trace inequality and a general form of entanglement witnesses, which is in the form , where is a density matrix, is a non-negative number related to , and is the identity matrix. The general form of entanglement witnesses is deduced from Choi-Jamio{\l}kowski isomorphism, that can be reinterpreted as that all quantum states can be obtained by a maximally quantum entangled state pass through certain completely positive maps. Furthermore, we provide the necessary and sufficient condition of the entanglement witness in operation, as well as in theory.
