Tripartite genuinely entangled states from entanglement-breaking subspaces

Abstract: The determination of genuine entanglement is a central problem in quantum information processing. We investigate the tripartite state as the tensor product of two bipartite entangled states by merging two systems. We show that the tripartite state is a genuinely entangled state when the range of both bipartite states are entanglement-breaking subspaces. We further investigate the tripartite state when one of the two bipartite states has rank two. Our results provide the latest progress on a conjecture proposed in the paper [Yi Shen $\textit{et al}$, J. Phys. A 53, 125302 (2020)]. We apply our results to construct multipartite states whose bipartite reduced density operators have additive EOF. Further, such states are distillable across every bipartition under local operations and classical communications.
