Abstract

A multipartite state that is not the convex sum of bipartite product states is said to be a genuine multipartite entangled (GME) state, which offers more significant advantages in quantum information compared with entanglement. We propose a sufficient criterion for the detection of GME based on uncertainty relations for chosen observables of subsystems. We apply the criterion to detect the GME properties of noisy n-partite W state when \(n = 3, 4, 5\) and 6 and find that the criterion can detect more noisy W states when n ranges from 4 to 6. Moreover, the criterion is also used to detect the genuine entanglement of 3-qutrit states. The result is stronger than that based on GME concurrence and Fisher information.
