For finite-dimensional bipartite quantum systems, we find the exact size of the largest balls, in spectral $l_p$ norms for $1 \le p \le \infty$, of separable (unentangled) matrices around the identity matrix. This implies a simple and…

We show that, in finite dimensions, around any $m$-partite product state $\rho_{\rm prod}=\rho_1\otimes...\otimes\rho_m$, there exists an ellipsoid of separable states centered around $\rho_{\rm prod}$. This separable ellipsoid contains the…

We obtain a new lower bound on the radius of the largest ball of separable unnormalized states around the identity matrix for a 3-qubit system. This also enables us to improve the corresponding lower bounds for multi-qubit systems. These…

We show that for an m-partite quantum system, there is a ball of radius 2^{-(m/2-1)} in Frobenius norm, centered at the identity matrix, of separable (unentangled) positive semidefinite matrices. This can be used to derive an epsilon below…

Two planar sets are circularly separable if there exists a circle enclosing one of the sets and whose open interior disk does not intersect the other set. This paper studies two problems related to circular separability. A linear-time…

Let $m>1$ be an integer, $B_m$ the set of all unit vectors of $\Bbb R^m$ pointing in the direction of a nonzero integer vector of the cube $[-1, 1]^m$. Denote by $s_m$ the radius of the largest ball contained in the convex hull of $B_m$. We…

Let V be a finite set of points in Euclidean d-space (d >= 2). The intersection of all unit balls B(v,1) centered at v, where v ranges over V, henceforth denoted by B(V) is the ball polytope associated with V. Note that B(V) is non-empty…

Motivated by the separability problem in quantum systems $2\otimes4$, $3\otimes3$ and $2\otimes2\otimes2$, we study the maximal (proper) faces of the convex body, $S_1$, of normalized separable states in an arbitrary quantum system with…

A finite family ${\mathcal B}$ of balls with respect to an arbitrary norm in ${\mathbb R}^d$ ($d\geq 2$) is called a non-separable family if there is no hyperplane disjoint from $\bigcup {\mathcal B}$ that strictly separates some elements…

We study the problem of existence of regions separating a given amount of volume with the least possible perimeter inside a Euclidean cone. Our main result shows that nonexistence for a given volume implies that the isoperimetric profile of…

We investigate the decomposition problem of balls into finitely many congruent pieces in dimension $d=2k$. In addition, we prove that the $d$ dimensional unit ball $B_d$ can be divided into finitely many congruent pieces if $d=4$ or $d\ge…

We determine those norms on B(H) whose unit ball is C*-convex. We call them M-norms and show that the class of M-norms less than a given norm enjoys a maximum element. These minimum and maximum elements will be determined in some cases.…

In Euclidean spaces, every closed, bounded, convex set can be characterized by two equivalent notions of separation properties. This is not true in general for arbitrary Banach spaces. In this work, we present a ball separation…

Consider a $d$-dimensional closed ball $B$ whose center coincides with that of the hypercube $[0,1]^d$. Pick the radius of $B$ in such a way that the vertices of the hypercube are outside of $B$ and the midpoints of its edges in the…

One of the most important problems in Geometric Tomography is to establish properties of a given convex body if we know some properties over its sections or its projections. There are many interesting and deep results that provide…

The separation of two sets (or more specific of two cones) plays an important role in different fields of mathematics such as variational analysis, convex analysis, convex geometry, optimization. In the paper, we derive some new results for…

We study metric properties of convex bodies B and their polars B^o, where B is the convex hull of an orbit under the action of a compact group G. Examples include the Traveling Salesman Polytope in polyhedral combinatorics (G=S_n, the…

We address the question of finding the most effective convex decompositions into boundary elements (so-called boundariness) for sets of quantum states, observables and channels. First we show that in general convex sets the boundariness…

The Separability Problem is approached from the perspective of Ellipsoidal Classification. A Density Operator of dimension N can be represented as a vector in a real vector space of dimension $N^{2}- 1$, whose components are the projections…

Given a bichromatic point set $P=\textbf{R} \cup \textbf{B}$ of red and blue points, a separator is an object of a certain type that separates $\textbf{R}$ and $\textbf{B}$. We study the geometric separability problem when the separator is…
