- Consider a bipartite quantum system S=AB such that each part interacts only with its local environment. Under such circumstances, one expects that the entanglement between parts A and B does not exceed its initial value during the time evolution. In fact, this is the case if the reduced dynamics of the system is given by $\mathcal{E}_{A}\otimes \mathcal{E}_{B}$, where $\mathcal{E}_{A}$ and $\mathcal{E}_{B}$ are quantum channels, i.e., completely positive trace-preserving maps. But, the reduced dynamics of the system may be given by a map as $Ψ_{A}\otimes Ψ_{B}$, where $Ψ_{A}$ and $Ψ_{B}$ are local non-positive maps. Then, the entanglement between A and B can exceed its initial value, as was shown in the case studied by Jordan et al. [Phys. Rev. A 76, 022102 (2007)]. In this paper, we first explore the general circumstances under which one can find such cases as they found. Next, we introduce another general procedure which leads to local non-positive maps that cause entanglement exceeding.
