We study the entanglement of formation and the quantum discord contained in even and odd multipartite [Formula: see text]-spin coherent states. The key element of this investigation is the fact that a single [Formula: see text]-spin coherent state is viewed as comprising [Formula: see text] qubit states. We compute the quantum correlations present in the n even and odd [Formula: see text]-spin coherent states by considering all possible bipartite splits of the multipartite system. We discuss the different bi-partition schemes of quantum systems and we examine in detail the conservation rules governing the distribution of quantum correlations between the different qubits of the multipartite system. Finally, we derive the explicit expressions of quantum correlations present in even and odd spin coherent states decomposed in four spin sub-systems. We also analyze the properties of monogamy and we show in particular that the entanglement of the formation and the quantum discord obey the relation of monogamy only for even multipartite [Formula: see text]-spin coherent states.

Local quantum uncertainty is defined as the minimum amount of uncertainty in measuring a local observable for a bipartite state. It provides a well-defined measure of pairwise quantum correlations in quantum systems and has operational significance in quantum metrology. In this work, we analytically derive the expression of local quantum uncertainty for two-qubit [Formula: see text] states which are of paramount importance in various fields of quantum information. As an illustration, we consider two-qubit states extracted from even and odd spin coherent states.

A model of dynamics of quantum correlations of two modes quasi-Bell cat states, based on Glauber coherent states, is considered. The analytic expressions of pairwise entanglement of formation, quantum discord and its geometrized variant are explicitly derived. We analyze the distribution of quantum correlations between the two modes and the environment. We show that, in contrast with squared concurrence, entanglement of formation, quantum discord and geometric quantum discord do not follow the property of monogamy except in some particular situations that we discuss.

We analyze the dynamics of coupled classical and quantum systems. The main idea is to treat both systems as true quantum ones and impose a family of superselection rules which imply that the corresponding algebra of observables of one subsystem is commutative and hence may be treated as a classical one. Equivalently, one may impose a special symmetry which restricts the algebra of observables to the 'classical' subalgebra. The characteristic feature of classical-quantum dynamics is that it leaves invariant a subspace of classical-quantum states, that is, it does not create quantum correlations as measured by the quantum discord.

A quantum error-correcting code is established in entangled coherent states (CSs) with Markovian and non-Markovian environments. However, the dynamic behavior of these optical states is discussed in terms of quantum correlation measurements, entanglement and discord. By using the correcting codes, these correlations can be as robust as possible against environmental effects. As the number of redundant CSs increases due to the repetitive error correction, the probabilities of success also increase significantly. Based on different optical field parameters, the discord can withstand more than an entanglement. Furthermore, the behavior of quantum discord under decoherence may exhibit sudden death and sudden birth phenomena as functions of dimensionless parameters.

We address the balance of quantum correlations for continuous variable (CV) states. In particular, we consider a class of feasible tripartite CV pure states and explicitly prove two Koashi–Winter-like conservation laws involving Gaussian entanglement of formation (EoF), Gaussian quantum discord and sub-system Von Neumann entropies. We also address the class of tripartite CV mixed states resulting from the propagation in a noisy environment, and discuss how the previous equalities evolve into inequalities.

We investigate the influence of photon excitations on quantum correlations in tripartite Glauber coherent states of Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger type (GHZ-type). The pairwise correlations are measured by means of the entropy-based quantum discord. We also analyze the monogamy property of quantum discord in this class of tripartite states in terms of the strength of Glauber coherent states and the photon excitation order.

The multipartite quantum systems are of particular interest for the study of such phenomena as entanglement and non-local correlations. The symmetry group of the whole multipartite system is the wreath product of the group acting in the “local” Hilbert space and the group of permutations of the constituents. The dimension of the Hilbert space of a multipartite system depends exponentially on the number of constituents, which leads to computational difficulties. We describe an algorithm for decomposing representations of wreath products into irreducible components. The C implementation of the algorithm copes with representations of dimensions in quadrillions. The program, in particular, builds irreducible invariant projectors in the Hilbert space of a multipartite system. The expressions for these projectors are tensor product polynomials. This structure is convenient for efficient computation of quantum correlations in multipartite systems with a large number of constituents.

A recursive approach to determine the Hilbert–Schmidt measure of pairwise quantum discord in a special class of symmetric states of k qubits is presented. We especially focus on the reduced states of k qubits obtained from a balanced superposition of symmetric n-qubit states (multiqubit Schrödinger cat states) by tracing out n-k particles (k = 2, 3, …, n-1). Two pairing schemes are considered. In the first one, the geometric discord measuring the correlation between one qubit and the parity grouping (k-1) qubits is explicitly derived. This uses recursive relations between the Fano–Bloch correlation matrices associated with subsystems comprising k, k-1, … and two particles. A detailed analysis is given for two-, three- and four-qubit systems. In the second scheme, the subsystem comprising the (k-1) qubits is mapped into a system of two logical qubits. We show that these two bipartition schemes are equivalents in evaluating the pairwise correlation in multiqubits systems. The explicit expressions of classical states presenting zero discord are derived.

The characterization of quantum discord (QD) has been well understood only for two-qubit states and is little known for mixed states beyond qubits. In this work, thermal quantum discord is studied for a qutrit system in different magnetic fields, where classical correlation and entanglement negativity are calculated for comparison. It is shown that the discord is more robust against temperature than the negativity. For a suitable region of magnetic field and its direction, the discord is non-zero while the negativity is zero. When the system is at a lower temperature, these three quantities, however, display a similar behavior for the varied field and direction, and their discontinuities come from crossovers between different ground states in the system. Moreover, the inequality between the quantum and classical correlations depends upon the system parameters as well as the temperature. In particular, both correlations are equal at a suitable field, direction, and temperature. Remarkably, such an equality remains for a strong field in the antiparallel direction, while both correlations in two-qubit systems are identical for any antiparallel field and temperature. These are useful for quantum information and understanding quantum correlations in qutrit mixed states.
