Bound on remote preparation of entanglement from isotropic states

Using the negativity as an entanglement measure, we investigate the possible amount of remotely prepared entanglement. For two identical isotropic states on two-qudit systems 12 and 34, we calculate the average amount of entanglement remotely distributed on the system 13 by joint measurement on the system 24, and show that the remote preparation of entanglement by the generalized Bell-measurement is optimal among rank-one measurements if the isotropic states have a certain fidelity with a maximally entangled state in higher dimensional quantum systems, or if the fidelity of the isotropic states is greater than a certain value depending on the dimension. In addition, we construct a measurement better than the generalized Bell-measurement with respect to the remote preparation of entanglement when the isotropic states have small fidelity.
