20.500.12556/RUL-184600 A Software Approach to the PPT2 Conjecture Programski pristop k domnevi PPT2 The PPT2 conjecture asserts that the composition of any two PPT maps is entanglement breaking. It is proven for maps on matrices of size up to $3 times 3$ and for several structured families, but the general case remains open; the smallest open case, $4 times 4$, is the one this thesis attacks computationally. We build a reproducible Julia pipeline that (i) mass-produces provably indecomposable entanglement witnesses via the Klep--McCullough--Šivic--Zalar construction of positive but not completely positive maps, rationalizing each certificate after the semidefinite program is solved so that every stored witness is exact -- 10,000 witnesses in under an hour, orders of magnitude faster than comparable implementations; (ii) generates bound entangled PPT candidates by generic random sampling, partial-transpose-invariant sampling, and witness-guided extraction; and (iii) tests the conjecture both by screening tens of thousands of composed channels with witness and DPS criteria, and by a see-saw SDP that searches the manifold of composed PPT maps directly. No counterexample is found. The witness library proves to be a collection of single-state detectors: each witness detects essentially only the state extracted from it. The central finding is a sharp contrast: every one of the 10,000 witnesses attains a negative optimum somewhere on the PPT cone, yet not one fires on the composition manifold -- precisely the signature expected if the conjecture holds in dimension four. This indicates that a counterexample, if one exists at all, must inhabit a measure-zero subset of the composition manifold that a random search cannot reach. As a by-product, the construction yields explicit biquadratic $4 times 4$-forms that are positive but not sums of squares, which is a notoriously difficult problem in real algebraic geometry. Domneva PPT2 trdi, da kompozitum poljubnih dveh PPT-preslikav, uniči prepletenost. Dokazana je za preslikave na matrikah velikosti do $3 times 3$ in za več strukturiranih družin, v splošnem pa ostaja odprta; najmanjši odprti primer, $4 times 4$, v tem delu napademo računsko. Razvijemo ponovljiv cevovod v jeziku Julia, ki (i) s konstrukcijo Klepa, McCullougha, Šivica in Zalarja množično izdeluje dokazano nerazcepne priče prepletenosti iz pozitivnih, a ne popolnoma pozitivnih preslikav; vsak certifikat po rešitvi semidefinitnega programa racionaliziramo, tako da je vsaka shranjena priča eksaktna -- 10.000 prič zgradimo v manj kot uri, za rede velikosti hitreje od primerljivih implementacij; (ii) generira mejno prepletene PPT-kandidate z generičnim naključnim vzorčenjem, z vzorčenjem, invariantnim na delno transpozicijo, ter z ekstrakcijo iz prič; in (iii) domnevo preizkusi s presejanjem več deset tisoč kompozitumov ter z izmenično optimizacijo, ki mnogoterost kompozitumov PPT-preslikav preiskuje neposredno. Protiprimera ne najdemo. Knjižnica prič se izkaže za zbirko detektorjev enega samega stanja: vsaka priča zazna v bistvu le stanje, ki je bilo iz nje ekstrahirano. Osrednja ugotovitev je ostro nasprotje: vsaka od 10.000 prič doseže negativni optimum nekje na stožcu PPT, na mnogoterosti kompozitumov pa se ne sproži nobena -- natanko kar pričakujemo, če domneva v dimenziji štiri drži. To nakazuje, da morebitni protiprimer, če sploh obstaja, leži na podmnožici kompozitumov z mero nič, ki je naključno iskanje ne doseže. Spotoma konstrukcija ustvari eksplicitne bikvadratne $4 times 4$-forme, ki so pozitivne, a niso vsote kvadratov, kar je znano težek problem v realni algebraični geometriji.
