Maximally multipartite entangled states

Understand

We introduce the notion of maximally multipartite entangled states of n qubits as a generalization of the bipartite case.

• These pure states have a bipartite entanglement that does not depend on the bipartition and is maximal for all possible bipartitions.
• They are solutions of a minimization problem.
• Examples for small n are investigated, both analytically and numerically.
