Abstract

We show that Einstein–Podolsky–Rosen–Bohm (EPR) and Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger–Mermin (GHZ) states can not generate, through local manipulation and in the asymptotic limit, all forms of three–partite pure–state entanglement in a reversible way. The techniques that we use suggest that there may be a connection between this result and the irreversibility that occurs in the asymptotic preparation and distillation of bipartite mixed states.
