Quantum entanglement and the Bell Matrix

We present a class of maximally entangled states generated by a high-dimensional generalisation of the $\text{textsc}cnot$ gate. The advantage of our approach is the simple algebraic structure of both entangling operator and resulting entangled states. In order to show that the method can be applied to any dimension, we introduce new sufficient conditions for global and maximal entanglement with respect to Meyer and Wallach’s measure.
