Abstract

Genuine-multipartite-entanglement (GME) concurrence is a measure of genuine multipartite entanglement that generalizes the well-known notion of concurrence. We define an observable for GME concurrence. The observable permits us to avoid full state tomography and leads to different analytic lower bounds. By means of explicit examples we show that entanglement criteria based on the bounds have a better performance with respect to the known methods.

An improved lower bound of genuine tripartite entanglement concurrence

Jing Wang, Xue‐Na Zhu, Ming Li +2 more

Abstract As one of the important types of entanglement, genuine multipartite entanglement (GME) offers significant advantages in many quantum information processing tasks. We study the GME concurrence and present an improved lower bound of the GME concurrence for tripartite systems, which is shown to be much tighter than some existing ones. We show by detailed example that our new bound can detect more genuine tripartite entangled states. While it is a formidable task to compute the genuine tripartite entanglement concurrence analytically, our results give an effective operational way to estimate the genuine tripartite entanglement.

Genuine Multipartite Entanglement Measure Based on $α$-concurrence

Keke Wang, Zhi-Wei Wei, Shao-Ming Fei

Quantifying genuine entanglement is a crucial task in quantum information theory. Based on the geometric mean of bipartite $α$-concurrences among all bipartitions, we present a class of well-defined genuine multipartite entanglement (GME) measures G$α$C with one parameter $α$ for arbitrary multipartite states. We show that the G$α$C is of continuity for any multipartite pure states. By utilizing the related symmetry, analytical results of G$α$C are derived for any $n$-qubit GHZ states and W states, which show that the GHZ states are more genuinely entangled than the W states. With explicit examples, we demonstrate that the G$α$C can distinguish different GME states that other GME measures fail to. These results justify the potential applications of G$α$C in characterizing genuine multipartite entanglements.

A Genuine Multipartite Entanglement Measure: The Geometric Mean of Total Concurrence

Rui‐Zhou Liang, Xinbo Liu, Zhi‐Xiang Jin

ABSTRACT Entanglement is a fundamental resource in quantum information science. In this work, we introduce the geometric total concurrence (GTC), a new measure of genuine multipartite entanglement (GME) for ‐partite systems based on the concept of total concurrence. The GTC satisfies a key criterion by assigning higher entanglement to GHZ states than to W states. We derive analytically computable lower bounds for the GTC using PPT and realignment criteria. Furthermore, we show that the GTC induces an entanglement ordering distinct from existing measures, providing a unique perspective on multipartite correlations. Through detailed examples, we demonstrate that the GTC offers improved sensitivity in detecting entanglement and sharper discrimination among different types of entangled states, establishing it as a practical tool for characterizing and quantifying GME.

Genuine multipartite entanglement measure based on G ω -concurrence

Wen-Hui Liu, Xinbo Liu, Zhi‐Xiang Jin

Abstract We introduce G ω -GME, a family of genuine multipartite entanglement measures defined via the geometric mean of a parameterized bipartite concurrence. We prove that G ω -GME satisfies all GME axioms, derive analytical expressions for GHZ and W states, and establish a strict entanglement hierarchy. Continuity under state perturbations is proven with explicit bounds. Compared with genuinely multipartite concurrence, GqC, and G α C, G ω -GME resolves finer entanglement structures and offers greater flexibility through its extended parameter range. These features make G ω -GME a powerful and practical tool for multipartite entanglement quantification and quantum network certification.

Measure and detection of genuine multipartite entanglement for tripartite systems

Ming Li, Lingxia Jia, Jing Wang +2 more

It is a computationally hard task to certify genuine multipartite entanglement (GME). We investigate the relation between the norms of the correlation vectors and the detection of GME for tripartite quantum systems. A sufficient condition for GME and an effective lower bound for the GME concurrence are derived. Several examples are considered to show the effectiveness of the criterion and the lower bound of GME concurrence.

Minimal Subsystems for Characterizing Genuine Multipartite Entanglement

Shashank Shekhar, Siddhartha Santra

Genuine multipartite entanglement (GME) is a valuable resource for quantum technologies, but quantifying it in many-body systems can be demanding since measures defined through optimizations over bipartitions are often assumed to require large joint measurements and many measurement settings. We introduce the concepts of GME evaluation length and GME evaluation number, which capture, respectively, the largest subsystem that must be jointly measured and the number of distinct subsystems that need to be measured to evaluate multipartite entanglement measures defined via bipartition optimizations. Taking the genuine multipartite concurrence (GMC) as a canonical example, we show that, for $N$-qubit Haar-random pure states, the GMC can be evaluated using only $N$ single-qubit purity measurements. Thus, for typical many-body states, evaluating the GMC requires considering only the $N$ single-site bipartitions, rather than the exponentially many distinct bipartitions. We further corroborate this behavior numerically for physically accessible states generated by local random quantum circuits. Our results show that the practical cost of quantifying GME can be dramatically lower than suggested by its formal definition, establishing measurement complexity as a complementary operational lens for multipartite entanglement.

Genuine Multipartite Entanglement Measure Based on ααα-concurrence
Quantifying genuine entanglement is a crucial task in quantum information theory. Based on the geometric mean of bipartite ααα-concurrences among all bipartitions, we present a class of well-defined genuine multipartite entanglement (GME) measures GαααC with one parameter ααα for arbitrary multipartite states. We show that the GαααC is of continuity for any multipartite pure states.
