Patterns of genuine multipartite entanglement in frustrated quantum spin systems

Abstract

We investigate the behavior of genuine multipartite entanglement of paradigmatic frustrated quantum spin systems. We consider six different spin models, whose frustration ranges from being very high to very low. We find that the highly frustrated quantum spin systems are near-maximally genuine multipartite entangled, while those with low frustration do not possess a similar definite behavior with regard to their genuine multipartite entanglement.
