Scaling of genuine multiparticle entanglement at a quantum phase transition

Quantum Physics 2014-05-01 v2 Statistical Mechanics

Abstract

We investigate the scaling and spatial distribution of genuine multiparticle entanglement in three- and four-spin reduced states of the one-dimensional XY-model at the quantum phase transition. We observe a logarithmic divergence and show that genuine three- and four-particle entanglement obeys finite-size scaling.
