Abstract
Considering the system of three interacting qubits, we analyze four families of states from the point of view of bipartite correlations appearing in two-qubit subsystems of a three-qubit model, such as Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering, entanglement, and coherence. We reveal mutual relations among the steering parameter, concurrence, and three measures of coherence (degree of coherence, first-, and second-order correlation functions). Analyzing in parallel the steerable and unsteerable states, we derive analytical formulas giving the maximal and minimal values of coherence measures as concurrence varies.
