Abstract Let M = [ A X X ⁎ B ] ∈ C 2 n × 2 n be positive semi-definite 2 × 2 block matrix, where A , B , X ∈ C n × n . A characterization for the matrix M with A + B = k I to be positive partial transpose is given in terms of its spectral norm. Using this result, a counter-example is constructed for the conjecture that ‖ M ‖ ≤ ‖ A + B ‖ when X is normal for all unitarily invariant norms.
