Abstract
For a multipartite quantum system of the dimension , , is there an entangled state {\em maximum} in the sense that all other states in the system can be obtained from the state through local quantum operations and classical communications (LOCC)? When , such state exists. We show that this condition is also necessary. Our proof, somewhat surprisingly, uses results from algebraic complexity theory.

10 pages, no figure. We know the answer is quite simple, but the proof is somewhat involved. Comments are welcome
