• Abstract: Entanglement shared among multiple parties presents complex challenges for the characterisation of different types of entanglement. One of the most fundamental insights is the fact that some mixed states can feature entanglement across every possible cut of a multipartite system yet can be produced via a mixture of states separable with respect to different partitions. To distinguish states that genuinely cannot be produced from mixing such partition-separable states, the term genuine multipartite entanglement was coined. All these considerations originate in a paradigm where only a single copy of the state is distributed and locally acted upon. In contrast, advances in quantum technologies prompt the question of how this picture changes when multiple copies of the same state become locally accessible. Here we show that multiple copies unlock genuine multipartite entanglement from partially separable states, i.e., mixtures of the partition-separable states, even from undistillable ensembles, and even more than two copies can be required to observe this effect. With these findings, we characterise the notion of genuine multipartite entanglement in the paradigm of multiple copies and conjecture a strict hierarchy of activatable states and an asymptotic collapse of the hierarchy.

  We investigate the different classes of multipartite entangled states that arise in a beamsplitter. We highlight three scenarios, one where the multipartite entanglement classes follow a total number hierarchy, another where the various classes follow a nonclassicality degree hierarchy and a third one that is a combination of the previous two.

  We extend the resource theory of entanglement for multipartite systems beyond the standard framework of local operations and classical communication. We demonstrate that in this adjusted framework, the transformation rates between multipartite states are fundamentally dictated by the bipartite entanglement entropies of the respective quantum states.

  Fragmented Bose-Einstein condensates are large systems of identical bosons displaying macroscopic occupations of one-body states. Characterising fragmentation solely in terms of reduced density matrices is unsatisfactory and ambiguous. We provide a quantitative rate of convergence to the leading effective dynamics in the double limit of infinitely many particles and infinite energy gap.

  Dual-unitary circuits are a class of locally-interacting quantum many-body systems. In particular, they admit a class of solvable" initial states for which, in the thermodynamic limit, one can access the full non-equilibrium dynamics. We show that in this case the entanglement increment during a time step is sub-maximal for finite times, however, it approaches the maximal value in the infinite-time limit.

  Purifying entanglement resources after their imperfect generation is an indispensable step towards using them in quantum architectures. Here we depart from the typical purification paradigm for multipartite states explored in the last twenty years. We find that smaller sacrificial' states, like Bell pairs, can be more useful in the purification of multipartite states than additional copies of these same states.

  We study the study of transformations of states via Local Operations assisted by Classical Communication (LOCC) We show that by transferring entanglement from one state to the other, one can perform state conversions not possible in the single copy case. In the bipartite case, we identify numerous non-trivial transformations and show that the source entanglement is not additive.
