• Abstract: Measurement incompatibility and bipartite quantum steering are known to display a strong connection: a set of measurements is incompatible if and only if it can lead to bipartite steering. Despite such a close link between these concepts in bipartite scenarios, little is known in the multipartite setting, where notions of genuine multipartite correlations play major roles. In this work we prove that, as in the bipartite case, incompatibility is also necessary and sufficient for genuine multipartite steering in any multipartite scenario with a single uncharacterised party. Interestingly, genuine multipartite steering can be extracted from any set of incompatible measurements using states which are not SLOCC equivalent, such as GHZ and W states. In contrast, we prove that this result does not hold in scenarios with more than one uncharacterised party, by presenting a set of incompatible measurements that can never lead to genuine multipartite steering in these cases. In order to obtain our main results, we introduce methods tailored for multipartite correlations, paving the way to understanding the role of measurement incompatibility beyond bipartite scenarios.

  Device-independent certification of quantum states allows the characterization of quantum states present inside a device. A major problem in this regard is to certify quantum states using minimal resources. We consider the multipartite quantum steering scenario with an arbitrary number of parties but only one of which is trusted in the sense that the measurements performed by the trusted party are known.

  A multi-party behavior is genuinely multipartite nonlocal if it cannot be modeled by measurements on an underlying network of bipartite-only nonlocal resources. Here, we study the full hierarchy of these new candidate definitions of GMNL in three-party quantum networks. Surprisingly, we find that this behavior, as well as the others previously studied as device-independent witnesses of entangled measurements, can all be simulated at a higher echelon of the GMNL hierarchy.

• Demonstrating shareability of multipartite Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering [12.387712831635127]
  Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering is a category of quantum nonlocal correlations describing the ability of one observer to influence another party's state via local measurements. Here, we provide a proof-of-principle demonstration of the shareability of EPR steering without the constraint of monogamy in a three-qubit system. This work has potential applications in many quantum information protocols, such as multipartite entanglement detection, quantum cryptography, and the construction of quantum networks.
