| contents | We investigate the effectiveness of entanglement detection based on multiple fidelities via the geometry of the joint separable numerical range. When all reference states are product states, we derive a necessary and sufficient criterion for such detection: either some pair of reference states has nontrivial moduli of the local inner products on both subsystems, or the orthogonal complement of the span of the reference states is completely entangled. We further show that there exist sets of reference product states for which no proper subset is effective for entanglement detection, whereas the full set is. A typical example of this phenomenon is provided by unextendible product bases. Moreover, for a pair of reference product states on a bipartite system with arbitrary local dimensions, we characterize both the joint numerical range and the joint separable numerical range, showing that the joint separable numerical range is determined solely by their local fidelities, as illustrated by a representative two-qubit example. Our results offer a systematic approach to designing effective entanglement witnesses and lay the groundwork for extensions to higher-dimensional and multipartite scenarios. |
