For mixed quantum states, entanglement can be characterized by a quotient group of local unitary stabilizers of the density matrix, and any nontriviality for separable states must come from multipartite entanglement with the purifying system.

abstract
We show how to simplify the computation of the entanglement of formation and the relative entropy of entanglement for states, which are invariant under a group of local symmetries. For several examples of groups we characterize the state spaces, which are invariant under these groups. For specific examples we calculate the entanglement measures. In particular, we derive an explicit formula for the entanglement of formation for UU-invariant states, and we find a counterexample to the additivity conjecture for the relative entropy of entanglement.

Entanglement groups for mixed states
For mixed quantum states, entanglement can be characterized by a quotient group of local unitary stabilizers of the density matrix, and any nontriviality for separable states must come from multipartite entanglement with the purifying system.
