One of the peculiar features of quantum mechanics is that a generic pure multipartite state is not completely described by the states of its subsystems.
The Bloch representation, that is an expansion of the state in terms of a local matrix basis, allows for a clean separation of multipartite features based on the number of parties involved.
When doing that separation, a natural question is how much “weight” the state has in its k-partite features (the “k-sector”) [1,2], or more precisely, what is the total Hilbert-Schmidt length of all terms that act nontrivially on exactly k parties.
A particularly interesting question is how this “sector distribution” correlates with the entanglement features of the state. It turns out that entanglement properties in general do not depend on a single sector (such as, e.g., the N-body sector), but on the entire sector distribution.
We present results regarding the sector distribution demonstrating that its relation to entanglement is not always what one might intuitively expect.
