[en] In this work, a variation of the problem originally solved by Verstraete,
Audenaert, and De Moor [Phys. Rev. A 64, 012316 (2001)] on what is the maximum entanglement that can be created in a two-qubit system by a global unitary transformation is considered and solved when permutation invariance in the state is imposed. The additional constraint of permutation symmetry appears naturally in the context of bosonic systems or spin states. We also characterise symmetric two-qubit states that remain separable after any global unitary transformation, called symmetric absolutely separable states (SAS), or absolutely classical for spin states. This allows us to determine the maximal radius of a ball of SAS states around the maximally mixed state in the symmetric sector, and the minimal radius of a ball that includes the set of SAS states. For three-qubit systems, a necessary condition for absolute separability of symmetric states is given, which leads us to upper bounds on the ball radii similar to those studied for the two-qubit system.
