An N-tangle can be defined for the finite dimensional Hilbert space ℋ=ℂ2N, with N = 3 or N even. We give an orthonormal basis which is fully entangled with respect to this measure. We provide a spin Hamilton operator which has this entangled basis as normalized eigenvectors if N is even. From these normalized entangled states a Bell matrix is constructed and the cosine–sine decomposition is calculated. If N is odd the normalized eigenvectors can be entangled or unentangled depending on the parameters.
Key words: Entanglement; Spin Hamilton Operators; Orthonormal Basis; Cosine–Sine Decomposition.
