. "We analyze how a maximally entangled state of two qubits (e.g., the singlet $psi_s$) is affected by the action of local channels described by completely positive maps $E$. We analyze the concurrence and the purity of states $rho_E=E \\otimes I_psi_s$. Using the concurrence-versus-purity phase diagram we characterize local channels $E$ by their action on the singlet state $psi_s$. We specify a region of the concurrence-versus-purity diagram that is achievable from the singlet state via the action of unital channels. We show that even the most general (including nonunital) local channels acting just on a single qubit of the original singlet state cannot generate the maximally entangled mixed states. We study in detail various time evolutions of the original singlet state induced by local Markovian semigroups. We show that the decoherence process is represented in the concurrence-versus-purity diagram by a line that forms the lower bound of the achievable region for unital maps."@en . . . . . "516165" .
