Abstract: (Elsevier B.V.)
In order to construct a measure of entanglement on the basis of a `distance' between two states, it is one of desirable properties that the `distance' is nonincreasing under every completely positive trace preserving map. Contrary to a recent claim, this letter shows that the Hilbert–Schmidt distance does not have this property.
