Monogamy deficit for quantum correlations in a multipartite quantum system
Siyuan Liu, Bo Li, Wen‐Li Yang, Heng Fan · Physical Review A · 2013
We introduce the concept of monogamy deficit for quantum correlation by combining two types of monogamy inequalities depending on different measurement sides. For tripartite pure states, we demonstrate a relation which connects two types of monogamy inequalities for quantum discord and provide the difference between them. By using this relation, we obtain a unified physical interpretation for these two monogamy deficits. In addition, we find the interesting fact that there is a general monogamy condition for several quantum correlations for tripartite pure states. We then provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the establishment of one kind of monogamy inequality for tripartite mixed states and generalize it to multipartite quantum states.
