The question whether global entanglement of a multiparticle quantum system
can be inferred from local properties is of great relevance for the theory of
quantum correlations as well as for experimental implementations. We present a
method to systematically find quantum states, for which the two- or three-body
marginals do not contain any entanglement, nevertheless, the knowledge of these
reduced states is sufficient to prove genuine multiparticle entanglement of the
global state. With this, we show that the emergence of global entanglement from
separable local quantum states occurs frequently and for an arbitrary number of
particles. We discuss various extensions of the phenomenon and present examples
where global entanglement can be proven from marginals, even if entanglement
cannot be localized in the marginals with measurements on the other parties.Comment: 7+\varepsilon pages, 3 figures, v3: final versio
We generalize the class of hypergraph states to multipartite systems of qudits, by means of constructions based on the d-dimensional Pauli group and its normalizer. For simple hypergraphs, the different equivalence classes under local operations are shown to be governed by a greatest common divisor hierarchy. Moreover, the special cases of three qutrits and three ququarts is analysed in detail.
