An analysis of the PPT square conjecture based on the characteristics of positive mappings given in [9] will be carried out. First, a general strategy for analyzing the PPT conjecture will be presented. Then, a detailed analysis of the certain tensor cones and their corresponding classes of mappings will be given. Special emphasis will be put on key mappings used in quantum information.
The full description of the set of positive maps $T: \qA \to \cB(\cH)$ ($\qA$ a $C^*$-algebra) is given. The approach is based on the simple prescription for selecting various types of positive maps. This prescription stems from the Grothendieck theory of projective tensor products complemented by the theory of tensor connes. In particular, the origin of non-decomposable maps is clarified.
We outline a new approach to the characterization as well as to the classification of positive maps. This approach is based on the facial structures of the set of states and of the cone of positive maps. In particular, the equivalence between Schroedinger's and Heisenberg's pictures is reviewed in this more general setting. Furthermore, we discuss in detail the structure of positive maps for two and three dimensional systems. In particular, the explicit form of decomposition of a positive map and the uniqueness of this decomposition for extremal positive maps for 2 dimensional case are described. The difference of the structure of positive maps between 2 dimensional and 3 dimensional cases is clarified. The resulting characterization of positive maps is applied to the study of quantum correlations and entanglement
