Quantification of Entanglement in Three-Qubit Systems

Abstract:This study presents an analytical investigation of entanglement quantification in three-qubit pure states through the Acín canonical representation, which serves as a generalization of the two-qubit Schmidt decomposition. Driven by the intricacies of multipartite entanglement and the shortcomings of current measures, we employ a global concurrence measure derived from the generalized concurrence of various bipartitions within the system. The characteristics of this measure are explored both analytically and numerically across a range of SLOCC entanglement classes, such as product, biseparable, GHZ-type, and W-type states. When compared to the three-tangle and tripartite negativity, our findings indicate that this measure yields complementary insights into multipartite correlations. The outcomes underscore the significance of this measure in elucidating the structure and distribution of entanglement within three-qubit quantum systems.
