Abstract
We present a general method for constructing pure-product-state representat ions for density operators of hi quantum bits. If such a representation has non-negative expansion coefficients, it provides an explicit separable ens emble for the density operator. We derive the condition for separability of a mixture of the Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state with the maximally mixe d state.
