Monogamy and Polygamy are important properties of entanglement, which characterize the entanglement distribution of multipartite systems. We study general monogamy and polygamy relations based on the $α$th $(0\leqα\leq γ)$ power of entanglement measures and the $β$th $(β\geq δ)$ power of assisted entanglement measures, respectively. We illustrate that these monogamy and polygamy relations are tighter than the inequalities in the article [Quantum Inf Process 19, 101], so that the entanglement distribution can be more precisely described for entanglement states that satisfy stronger constraints. For specific entanglement measures such as concurrence and the convex-roof extended negativity, by applying these relations, one can yield the corresponding monogamous and polygamous inequalities, which take the existing ones in the articles [Quantum Inf Process 18, 23] and [Quantum Inf Process 18, 105] as special cases. More details are presented in the examples.
Monogamy and polygamy are the most striking features of the quantum world. We investigate the monogamy and polygamy relations satisfied by all quantum correlation measures for arbitrary multipartite quantum states. By introducing residual quantum correlations, analytical polygamy inequalities are presented, which are shown to be tighter than the existing ones. Then, similar to polygamy relations, we obtain strong monogamy relations that are better than all the existing ones. Typical examples are presented for illustration.
We investigate the tight monogamy and polygamy relations of multiparty entanglement for arbitrary quantum states. By using the power of the bipartite measure of entanglement, we establish a class of tight monogamy relations of multiparty entanglement with larger lower bounds than the existing monogamy relations. We also give a class of tight polygamy relations of multiparty entanglement with smaller upper bounds than the existing polygamy relations, by using the power of the entanglement of assistance. It is shown that these new monogamy and polygamy relations are tighter than the former resul…
We investigate the monogamy relations related to the concurrence, the entanglement of formation, convex-roof extended negativity, Tsallis-q entanglement and R'enyi-α entanglement, the polygamy relations related to the entanglement of formation, Tsallis-q entanglement and R'enyi-α entanglement. Monogamy and polygamy inequalities are obtained for arbitrary multipartite qubit systems, which are proved to be tighter than the existing ones. Detailed examples are presented.
Monogamy and polygamy relations characterize the distributions of entanglement in multipartite systems. We investigate the monogamy and polygamy relations with respect to any partitions for a superposition of the generalized $W$-class state and vacuum in terms of the Tsallis-$q$ entanglement and the Rényi-$α$ entanglement. By using the Hamming weight of the binary vectors related to the partitions of the subsystems, new classes of monogamy and polygamy inequalities are derived, which are shown to be tighter than the existing ones. Detailed examples are presented to illustrate the finer charact…
Using Rényi-$α$ entropy to quantify bipartite entanglement, we prove monogamy of entanglement in multi-qubit systems for $α\geq 2$. We also conjecture a polygamy inequality of multi-qubit entanglement with strong numerical evidence for $0.83-ε\leq α\leq 1.43+ε$ with $0<ε<0.01$.
We study the monogamy and polygamy inequalities of quantum correlations in arbitrary dimensional multipartite quantum systems. We first derive the monogamy inequality of the $α$th ($0\leqα\leq\frac{r}{2}, r\geq2$) power of concurrence for any $2\otimes2\otimes2^{n-2}$ tripartite states and generalize it to the $n$-qubit quantum states. In addition to concurrence, we show that the monogamy relations are satisfied by other quantum correlation measures such as entanglement of formation. Moreover, the polygamy inequality of the $β$th ($β\leq0$) power of concurrence and the $β$th ($β\geq s, 0\leq s…
We study the monogamy and polygamy inequalities of unified entanglement in multipartite quantum systems. We first derive the monogamy inequality of unified-$(q, s)$ entanglement for multi-qubit states under arbitrary bipartition, and then obtain the monogamy inequalities of the $α$th ($0\leqα\leq\frac{r}{2}, r\geq\sqrt{2}$) power of entanglement of formation for tripartite states and their generalizations in multi-qubit quantum states. We also generalize the polygamy inequalities of unified-$(q, s)$ entanglement for multi-qubit states under arbitrary bipartition. Moreover, we investigate polyg…
We investigate the generalized monogamy and polygamy relations $N$-qubit systems. We give a general upper bound of the $α$th ($0\leqα\leq2$) power of concurrence for $N$-qubit states. The monogamy relations satisfied by the $α$th ($0\leqα\leq2$) power of concurrence are presented for $N$-qubit pure states under the partition $AB$ and $C_1 . . . C_{N-2}$, as well as under the partition $ABC_1$ and $C_2\cdots C_{N-2}$. These inequalities give rise to the restrictions on entanglement distribution and the trade off of entanglement among the subsystems. Similar results are also derived for negativi…
We present a different kind of monogamy and polygamy relations based on concurrence and concurrence of assistance for multiqubit systems. By relabeling the subsystems associated with different weights, a smaller upper bound of the $α$th ($0\leqα\leq2$) power of concurrence for multiqubit states is obtained. We also present tighter monogamy relations satisfied by the $α$th ($0\leqα\leq2$) power of concurrence for $N$-qubit pure states under the partition $AB$ and $C_1 . . . C_{N-2}$, as well as under the partition $ABC_1$ and $C_2\cdots C_{N-2}$. These inequalities give rise to the restrictions…
Using entanglement of assistance, we establish a general polygamy inequality of multi-party entanglement in arbitrary dimensional quantum systems. For multi-party closed quantum systems, we relate our result with the monogamy of entanglement to show that the entropy of entanglement is an universal entanglement measure that bounds both monogamy and polygamy of multi-party quantum entanglement.
A particularly interesting feature of nonrelativistic quantum mechanics is the monogamy laws of entanglement. Although the monogamy relation has been explored extensively in the last decade, it is still not clear to what extent a given entanglement measure is monogamous. We give here a conjecture on the amount of entanglement contained in the reduced states by observing all the known related results at first. Consequently, we propose the monogamy power of an entanglement measure and the polygamy power for its dual quantity, the assisted entanglement, and show that both the monogamy power and t…
We study the monogamy and polygamy relations related to quantum correlations for multipartite quantum systems. General monogamy relations are presented for the $α$th $(0\leqα\leqγ, γ\geq2)$ power of quantum correlation, and general polygamy relations are given for the $β$th $(β\geq δ, 0\leqδ\leq1)$ power of quantum correlation. These monogamy and polygamy inequalities are complementary to the existing ones with different parameter regions of $α$ and $β$. Applying these results to specific quantum correlations, the corresponding new classes of monogamy and polygamy relations are obtained, which…
Monogamy and polygamy relations characterize the quantum correlation distributions among multipartite quantum systems. We investigate the monogamy and polygamy relations satisfied by measures of general quantum correlation. By using the Hamming weight, we derive new monogamy and polygamy inequalities satisfied by the $β$-th power and the $α$-th power of general quantum correlations, respectively. We show that these monogamy and polygamy relations are tighter than the existing ones, such as [Int. J. Theor. Phys. 60, 1455-1470 (2021)]. Taking concurrence and the Tsallis-$q$ entanglement of assis…
Quantum entanglement plays essential roles in quantum information processing. The monogamy and polygamy relations characterize the entanglement distributions in the multipartite systems. We present a class of monogamy inequalities related to the $μ$th power of the entanglement measure based on Rényi-$α$ entropy, as well as polygamy relations in terms of the $μ$th powered of Rényi-$α$ entanglement of assistance. These monogamy and polygamy relations are shown to be tighter than the existing ones.
We investigate monogamy relations related to the Rényi-$α$ entanglement and polygamy relations related to the Rényi-$α$ entanglement of assistance. We present new entanglement monogamy relations satisfied by the $μ$-th power of Rényi-$α$ entanglement with $α\in[\sqrt{7}-1)/2,(\sqrt{13}-1)/2]$ for $μ\geqslant2$, and polygamy relations satisfied by the $μ$-th power of Rényi-$α$ entanglement of assistance with $α\in[\sqrt{7}-1)/2,(\sqrt{13}-1)/2]$ for $0\leqμ\leq1$. These relations are shown to be tighter than the existing ones.
We provide a characterization of multiqubit entanglement monogamy and polygamy constraints in terms of negativity. Using the square of convex-roof extended negativity (SCREN) and the Hamming weight of the binary vector related to the distribution of subsystems proposed in Kim (Phys Rev A 97: 012334, 2018), we provide a new class of monogamy inequalities of multiqubit entanglement based on the $α$th power of SCREN for $α\geq1$ and polygamy inequalities for $0\leqα\leq1$ in terms of squared convex-roof extended negativity of assistance (SCRENoA). For the case $α<0$, we give the corresponding pol…
Monogamy and polygamy relations characterize the distributions of entanglement in multipartite systems. We provide classes of monogamy and polygamy inequalities of multiqubit entanglement in terms of concurrence, entanglement of formation, negativity, Tsallis-$q$ entanglement and Rényi-$α$ entanglement, respectively. We show that these inequalities are tighter than the existing ones for some classes of quantum states.
Entanglement polygamy, like entanglement monogamy, is a fundamental property of multipartite quantum states. We investigate the polygamy relations related to the concurrence $C$ and the entanglement of formation $E$ for general $n$-qubit states. We extend the results in [Phys. Rev. A 90, 024304 (2014)] from the parameter region $α\leq0$ to $α\leqα_0$, where $0<α_0\leq2$ for $C$, and $0<α_0\leq\sqrt{2}$ for $E$.
We present classes of monogamy inequalities related to the $α$-th ($α\geq 1$) power of the entanglement measure based on the unified-($q,s$) entropy, and polygamy inequalities related to the $β$-th ($0 \leq β\leq 1$) power of the unified-($q,s$) entanglement of assistance by using Hamming weight. We show that these monogamy and polygamy inequalities are tighter than the existing ones. Detailed examples are given for illustrating the advantages.
One of the fundamental traits of quantum entanglement is the restricted shareability among multipartite quantum systems, namely monogamy of entanglement, while it is well known that monogamy inequalities are always satisfied by entanglement measures with convexity. Here we present a measure of entanglement, logarithmic convex-roof extended negativity (LCREN) satisfying important characteristics of an entanglement measure, and investigate the monogamy relation for logarithmic negativity and LCREN both without convexity. We show exactly that the $α$th power of logarithmic negativity, and a newly…
For bipartite pure and mixed quantum states, in addition to the quantum mutual information, there is another measure of total correlation, namely, the entanglement of purification. We study the monogamy, polygamy, and additivity properties of the entanglement of purification for pure and mixed states. In this paper, we show that, in contrast to the quantum mutual information which is strictly monogamous for any tripartite pure states, the entanglement of purification is polygamous for the same. This shows that there can be genuinely two types of total correlation across any bipartite cross in …
We study the distribution of quantum correlations characterized by monogamy relations in multipartite systems. By using the Hamming weight of the binary vectors associated with the subsystems, we establish a class of monogamy inequalities for multiqubit entanglement based on the $α$th ($α\geq 2$) power of concurrence, and a class of polygamy inequalities for multiqubit entanglement in terms of the $β$th ($0\leq β\leq2$) power of concurrence and concurrence of assistance. Moveover, we give the monogamy and polygamy inequalities for general quantum correlations. Application of these results to q…
\indent In this article, we consider the monogamy relations for the generalized W class states. Here we first present an analytical formula on Tsallis-$q$ entanglement and Tsallis-$q$ entanglement of assistance of a reduced density matrix of the generalized W class states, then we present a monogamy relation in terms of the T$q$EE for the GW state, and we also present generalized monogamy relations in terms of T$q$EE for the GW states. At last, we present tighter polygamy relations in terms of T$q$EEoA when $q=2$ for the GWV states.
We investigate the general monogamy and polygamy relations satisfied by quantum correlation measures. We show that there exist two real numbers $α$ and $β$ such that for any quantum correlation measure $Q$, $Q^x$ is monogamous if $x\geq α$ and polygamous if $0\leq x\leq β$ for a given multipartite state $ρ$. For $β<x<α$, we show that the monogamy relation can be superactivated by finite $m$ copies $ρ^{\otimes m}$ of $ρ$ for nonadditive correlation measures. As a detailed example, we use the negativity as the quantum correlation measure to illustrate such superactivation of monogamy properties.…
Unlike classical correlation, quantum entanglement cannot be freely shared among many parties. This restricted shareability of entanglement among multi-party systems is known as monogamy of entanglement, which is one of the most fundamental properties of entanglement. Here, we summarize recent theoretical progress in the field of monogamy of entanglement. We firstly review the standard CKW-type monogamy inequalities in terms of various entanglement measures. In particular, the squashed entanglement and one-way distillable entanglement are monogamous for arbitrary dimensional systems. We then i…
We investigate monogamy relations and upper bounds for generalized $W$-class states related to the Rényi-$α$ entropy. First, we present an analytical formula on Rényi-$α$ entanglement (R$α$E) and Rényi-$α$ entanglement of assistance (REoA) of a reduced density matrix for a generalized $W$-class states. According to the analytical formula, we show monogamy and polygamy relations for generalized $W$-class states in terms of R$α$E and REoA. Then we give the upper bounds for generalized $W$-class states in terms of R$α$E. Next, we provide tighter monogamy relations for generalized $W$-class states…
The Milburn dynamics of three nonresonant ultra-strongly coupled oscillators are resolved by using symplectic geometry. We look at the Milburn dynamics of virtual excitations and how they affect pairwise entanglement. It is found that the dynamics of excitations and entanglement experience similar profiles against time, physical parameters, and decoherence rate. Furthermore, we show that the extinction of excitations entails separability, which demonstrates the hierarchy between entanglement and virtual excitations. Additionally, we analyze the effects of physical parameters on the redistribut…
Tsallis-$q$ entanglement is a bipartite entanglement measure which is the generalization of entanglement of formation for $q$ tending to 1. We first expand the range of $q$ for the analytic formula of Tsallis-\emph{q} entanglement. For $\frac{5-\sqrt{13}}{2} \leq \emph{q} \leq \frac{5+\sqrt{13}}{2}$, we prove the monogamy relation in terms of the squared Tsallis-$q$ entanglement for an arbitrary multi-qubit systems. It is shown that the multipartite entanglement indicator based on squared Tsallis-$q$ entanglement still works well even when the indicator based on the squared concurrence loses i…
We establish a unified view to the polygamy of multi-party quantum entanglement in arbitrary dimensions. Using quantum Tsallis-$q$ entropy, we provide a one-parameter class of polygamy inequalities of multi-party quantum entanglement. This class of polygamy inequalities reduces to the known polygamy inequalities based on tangle and entanglement of assistance for a selective choice of the parameter $q$. We further provide one-parameter generalizations of various quantum correlations based on Tsallis-$q$ entropy. By investigating the properties of the generalized quantum correlations, we provide…
While quantum entanglement is known to be monogamous (i.e. shared entanglement is restricted in multi-partite settings), here we show that distributed entanglement (or the potential for entanglement) is by nature polygamous. By establishing the concept of one-way unlocalizable entanglement (UE) and investigating its properties, we provide a polygamy inequality of distributed entanglement in tripartite quantum systems of arbitrary dimension. We also provide a polygamy inequality in multi-qubit systems, and several trade offs between UE and other correlation measures.
We characterize the polygamy nature of quantum entanglement in multi-party systems in terms of $q$-expectation value for the full range of $q\geq 1$. By investigating some properties of generalized quantum correlations in terms of $q$-expectation value and Tsallis $q$-entropy, we establish a class of polygamy inequalities of multi-party quantum entanglement in arbitrary dimensions based on $q$-expected entanglement measure. As Tsallis $q$-entropy is reduced to von Neumann entropy, and $q$-expectation value becomes the ordinary expectation value when $q$ tends to $1$, our results encapsulate pr…

We investigate monogamy relations related to quantum entanglement for $n-$qubit quantum systems. General monogamy inequalities are presented to the $β$th $(β\in(0,2))$ power of concurrence, negativity and the convex-roof extended negativity, as well as the $β$th $(β\in(0,\sqrt{2}))$ power of entanglement of formation. These monogamy relations are complementary to the existing ones with different regions of parameter $β$. In additions, new monogamy relations are also derived which include the existing ones as special cases.
A global measure of quantum correlations for tripartite nonorthogonal states is presented. It is introduced as the overall average of the pairwise correlations existing in all possible partitions. The explicit expressions for the global measure are derived for squared concurrence, entanglement of formation, quantum discord and its geometric variant. As illustration, we consider even and odd three-mode Schrödinger cat states based on Glauber coherent states. We also discuss limitations to sharing quantum correlations known as monogamy relations.
In contrast with entanglement, as measured by concurrence, in general, quantum discord does not possess the property of monogamy, that is, there is no tradeoff between the quantum discord shared by a pair of subsystems and the quantum discord that both of them can share with a third party. Here, we show that, as far as monogamy is considered, quantum discord of pure states is equivalent to the entanglement of formation. This result allows one to analytically prove that none of the pure three-qubit states belonging to the subclass of W states is monogamous. A suitable physical interpretation of…
We examine the various properties of the three four-qubit monogamy relations, all of which introduce the power factors in the three-way entanglement to reduce the tripartite contributions. On the analytic ground as much as possible we try to find the minimal power factors, which make the monogamy relations hold if the power factors are larger than the minimal powers. Motivated to the three-qubit monogamy inequality we also examine whether those four-qubit monogamy relations provide the SLOCC-invariant four-way entanglement measures or not. Our analysis indicate that this is impossible provided…
We provide an evidence for the validity of strong monogamy inequality of multi-party quantum entanglement using square of convex-roof extended negativity(SCREN). We first consider a large class of multi-qudit mixed state that are in a partially coherent superposition of a generalized W-class state and the vacuum, and provide some useful properties about this class of states. We show that monogamy inequality of multi-qudit entanglement in terms of SCREN holds for this class of states. We further show that SCREN strong monogamy inequality of multi-qudit entanglement also holds for this class of …
In this paper, we study the $α$th power monogamy properties related to the entanglement measure in bipartite states. The monogamy relations related to the $α$th power of negativity and the Convex- Roof Extended Negativity are obtained for N-qubit states. We also give a tighter bound of hierarchical monogamy inequality for the entanglement of formation. We find that the GHZ state and W state can be used to distinguish the $α$th power the concurrence for $0<α<2$. Furthermore, we compare concurrence with negativity in terms of monogamy property and investigate the difference between them.
A striking result from nonrelativistic quantum mechanics is the monogamy of entanglement, which states that a particle can be maximally entangled only with one other party, not with several ones. While there is the exact quantitative relation for three qubits and also several inequalities describing monogamy properties it is not clear to what extent exact monogamy relations are a general feature of quantum mechanics. We prove that in all many-qubit systems there exist strict monogamy laws for quantum correlations. They come about through the curious relation between the nonrelativistic quantum…
We introduce a new class of multipartite entangled mixed states with pure state decompositions of generalized W states, similar to Schmidt-correlated states having generalized GHZ states in the pure state decomposition. The entanglement and separability properties are studied according to PPT operations. Monogamy relations linked to these states are also investigated.
This work aims to understand the monogamy of quantum entanglement from a geometrical point of view. By regarding quantum entanglement as a geometrical structure on the state space of quantum systems and attributing all entanglement related properties as emergent from this geometry of entanglement, we assume there exists a genuine general monogamous relation of quantum entanglement w.r.t. a correspondent genuine entanglement measure Q* which possesses an underlying geometrical origin. We speculate that the monogamous relations w.r.t. an entanglement measure Q can be understood by comparing the …
The set of all qubit states that can be steered to by measurements on a correlated qubit is predicted to form an ellipsoid---called the quantum steering ellipsoid---in the Bloch ball. This ellipsoid provides a simple visual characterisation of the initial 2-qubit state, and various aspects of entanglement are reflected in its geometric properties. We experimentally verify these properties via measurements on many different polarisation-entangled photonic qubit states. Moreover, for pure 3-qubit states, the volumes of the two quantum steering ellipsoids generated by measurements on the first qu…
Quantum discord, an information-theoretic quantum correlation measure, can satisfy as well as violate monogamy, for three-party quantum states. We quantify the feature using the concept of discord monogamy score. We find a necessary condition of a vanishing discord monogamy score for arbitrary three-party states. A necessary and sufficient condition is obtained for pure states. We prove that the class of states having a vanishing discord monogamy score cannot have arbitrarily high genuine multipartite entanglement, as quantified by generalized geometric measure. In the special case of three-qu…
We prove that the squared Rényi-$α$ entanglement (SR$α$E), which is the generalization of entanglement of formation (EOF), obeys a general monogamy inequality in an arbitrary $N$-qubit mixed state. Furthermore, for a class of Rényi-$α$ entanglement, we prove that the monogamy relations of the SR$α$E have a hierarchical structure when the $N$-qubit system is divided into $k$ parties. As a byproduct, the analytical relation between the Rényi-$α$ entanglement and the squared concurrence is derived for bipartite $2\otimes d$ systems. Based on the monogamy properties of SR$α$E, we can construct the…
The inability to produce two perfect copies of an unknown state is inherently linked with the inability to produce maximal entanglement between multiple spins. Despite this, there is no quantitative link between how much entanglement can be generated between spins (known as monogamy), and how well an unknown state can be cloned. This situation is remedied by giving a set of sufficient conditions such that the optimal Completely Positive map can be implemented as a teleportation operation into a standard, reference, state. The case of arbitrary 1 to N asymmetric cloning of d-dimensional spins c…
One of the fundamental differences between classical and quantum mechanics is in the ways correlations can be distributed among the many parties that compose a system. While classical correlations can be shared among many subsystems, in general quantum correlations cannot be freely shared. This unique property is known as monogamy of quantum correlations. In this work, we study the monogamy properties of the correlated coherence for the l 1 -norm and relative entropy measures of coherence. For the l 1 -norm the correlated coherence is monogamous for a particular class of quantum states. For th…
