The amount of entanglement in mixed quantum states is commonly defined via the convex-roof extension of a certain pure state entanglement measure, e.g., a polynomial invariant such as the concurrence [1]. For a pair of qubits, the convex roof of the pure-state concurrence can be obtained analytically [2].
The Wootters-Uhlmann method depends crucially on the properties of antilinear operators. In this contribution, we investigate a possible generalization of the Wootters-Uhlmann method for invariants which can be written as expectation values of antilinear operators with respect to multiple copies of a given pure state. In particular, we try to apply this method to invariants of polynomial degree 4 such as the three-way tangle.
