Abstract

We calculate the asymptotic entanglement capacity of the Ising interaction σz ⊗ σz, the anisotropic Heisenberg interaction σx ⊗ σx + σy ⊗ σy, and more generally, any two-qubit Hamiltonian with canonical form K = µx σx ⊗ σx + µy σy ⊗ σy. We also describe an entanglement assisted classical communication protocol using the Hamiltonian K with rate equal to the asymptotic entanglement capacity.
