We investigate a fully-connected three-mode squeezed vacuum (FC-C3MSV) state, where all three modes are pairwise coupled through nonlinear interactions in a triangle ($K_3$) topology. Using the integration-within-ordered-product technique, we derive the normal product form of the squeezing operator and obtain the covariance matrix directly from the Bogoliubov transformation. Under symmetric coupling, the physical state is genuinely tripartite entangled for any nonzero squeezing, while the three Armstrong-type witnesses provide a finite-window sufficient experimental test; in the chain-type C3MSV only one of these witnesses is violated. We find that, despite two-mode entanglement, the fully-connected topology admits \emph{no} two-mode Gaussian steering ($\mathcal{G}^{i\to j}=0$) between any pair of physical modes; the steering resource is instead collective one-mode-versus-two steering $\mathcal{G}^{i\to jk}$, which is $\theta$-independent and grows with $r$. We analyze independent vacuum losses and obtain critical transmittances for steering survival: under full symmetric loss at $r=0.5$, one-to-two collective steering disappears at $\eta\approx0.58$, whereas reverse two-to-one collective steering survives down to $\eta\approx0.502$ and the underlying two-mode entanglement persists for all $\eta>0$. Finally, we revisit photon subtraction using a normalized phase-space derivation. A photon subtraction on a single physical mode does not generate Wigner negativity on another single mode, consistent with the absence of two-mode steering. Wigner negativity can instead be generated when Bob subtracts from the collective mode $(b+c)/\sqrt{2}$, with a loss threshold $\eta_c\approx0.667$ at $r=0.5$. These results distinguish pairwise and collective nonclassical resources in the FC-C3MSV and clarify the operational role of the complete-graph topology.
Multipartite entanglement is conventionally classified by state families viz. family of GHZ and W class of states, with each family expected to behave differently under measurement. We show that, at least for the question of how entanglement splits after a single-particle measurement, this is not the division that matters for qutrits. Extending the Aravind's correspondence (which models entanglement as topological linking, and projective measurement as physically cutting a ring from an interlinked configuration\cite{aravind1997}) from qubits to qutrits, we derive the complete measurement-induced entanglement splitting of the GHZ type qutrit state i.e |GHZ_3>and of the full family of symmetric W class qutrit states, six two same - one different states i.e |{W_{p,p,q}^{sym}}>and one all - different state i.e. |W_{0,1,2}>, under both the computational basis (CB) and the mutually unbiased bases (MUBs), obtaining exact eigenvalues and Schmidt ranks for every outcome in every case. We see that the |W_{0,1,2}>state behaves similarly as |GHZ_3>state, a single, outcome-independent residual rank in each basis, while the |{W_{p,p,q}^{sym}>states alone show probability-weighted, outcome-dependent behaviour. The relevant structural line is therefore repeated-index versus all-different-index bag structure, not GHZ class versus $W$ class. We express this classification using a \textit{two-strand cabling} extension of Aravind's \textit{ring-and-link} picture. This is needed because the qutrit residual Schmidt rank (R) takes three values, R belonging to {1,2,3}, rather than the qubit binary (i.e. R belonging to {1,2}). We are explicit throughout that this cabling dictionary is a labeling convention built to reproduce an independently computed Schmidt rank, not a topological invariant derived from the link diagrams themselves, and we discuss what would be needed to close that gap
The tripartite quantum Rabi model couples two qubits to a bosonic mode through a collective spin-oscillator interaction, providing a simple setting for studying two-qubit entanglement. In the zero-detuning limit, the triplet part of the spectrum splits into branches with zero and maximal entanglement, while the antisymmetric singlet ladder remains exactly decoupled. Within the triplet sector, finite detuning turns the crossings between these branches into avoided crossings and redistributes this entanglement. We identify an eigenbranch whose entanglement grows from nearly zero to a nearly maximal value through such avoided-crossing mixing. The weak-coupling level ordering yields a simple analytic criterion for whether this eigenbranch has a separable weak-coupling endpoint. A three-state effective model explains how the Bell-state component becomes dominant as the coupling increases. We further use a finite-time linear ramp of the collective coupling to benchmark the final coupling and ramp time required for high Bell-state fidelity. These results show how collective spin-oscillator coupling reorganizes spectral entanglement and connects static branch structure to finite-time Bell-state preparation.

The three-qubit CCZ state is the smallest rank-three hypergraph state and an elementary entangled magic resource. Its cubic phase is governed by generalized stabilizers that are not Pauli strings, so standard graph-state self-testing arguments do not apply directly. We show that twenty correlators, all obtainable from five of the eight global input triples in the tripartite two-input, two-output scenario, determine this state and the action of the Pauli $X/Z$ measurements up to local isometries. The proof fixes eight equally weighted computational branches and propagates conditional $X$-flip relations across the branch cube, recovering the minus sign of the $111$ amplitude. These five-context correlations are nonlocal, but the canonical Pauli measurements cannot attain the largest quantum value of any Bell inequality that they violate: whenever they maximize a Bell expression, its local bound has the same value. Introducing an independent third measurement makes self-testing from maximal Bell violation possible. We construct an explicit Bell inequality whose maximal quantum violation self-tests the CCZ state and all three local measurements. An exact sum-of-squares decomposition proves the quantum bound, and its equality conditions yield an analytic SWAP extraction. Together, these results give two explicit device-independent self-tests of the CCZ state and demonstrate that determining a state and its measurements from several correlator equalities is distinct from identifying them through the maximal violation of a single Bell inequality.

We investigate how network geometry and excitation sector separately control pairwise entanglement decay in asymmetric multipartite $W$ states. To disentangle these effects, we introduce an analytically tractable $N$-qubit generalization of the asymmetric Lohmayer geometry and its complementary-excitation partner, yielding inequivalent vertex-base (VB) and base-base (BB) pair classes that can be compared directly with symmetric $W$-state references. We derive closed-form concurrence dynamics under representative one-sided noise models and find that, within either excitation sector, the VB concurrence has exactly the same noise dependence as the corresponding symmetric reference, preserving a noise-independent proportional advantage wherever both remain entangled. The amplitude-damping reordering previously identified for the three-qubit Lohmayer state is therefore a cross-sector effect rather than an intrinsic fragility of the VB geometry. In contrast, the BB pair exhibits a genuine same-sector structural fragility, with lower entanglement-sudden-death thresholds than the VB pair under depolarizing noise and, in the $(N-1)$-excitation sector, under amplitude damping. The results establish network geometry, excitation sector, and noise symmetry as distinct ingredients governing pairwise entanglement robustness in asymmetric quantum networks.

This study investigates the generation and enhancement of quantum entanglement in an electro-optomechanical ring cavity system. The setup integrates two Coulomb-coupled mechanical resonators, which serve as the fundamental mechanism for the generation of bipartite and tripartite entanglement via charge mediated coupling. We then demonstrate the significant enhancement of this entanglement via a nonlinear parametric drive (an optical parametric amplifier, OPA), which injects a controllable nonlinearity into the cavity. We derive the system's Hamiltonian and the corresponding quantum Langevin equations, which are linearized around steady-state solutions to analyze Gaussian quantum fluctuations. Employing the covariance matrix formalism, we quantify bipartite entanglement via logarithmic negativity and tripartite entanglement via the minimum residual contangle. Our results unequivocally show that while the Coulomb interaction is indispensable for creating entanglement, the OPA acts as a powerful control tool, dramatically amplifying the degree of quantum correlations for all subsystems. We find that the strength of entanglement is highly sensitive to several parameters and can be optimized through the strategic selection of the OPA's gain and phase, the laser detuning, and the input power. A key finding is the existence of a trade-off, where parameters that maximize entanglement also constrain the stable operating regime of the system. Furthermore, thermal noise is shown to progressively degrade all quantum correlations, underscoring the necessity for low-temperature operation. These findings provide comprehensive guidance for parameter optimization, outlining a clear path from generation to enhancement, and highlight the potential of such hybrid systems as versatile platforms for controlling multipartite entanglement in quantum technologies.

We present a permutation-symmetric supporting relation between the pairwise concurrences and the three-tangle in three-qubit system, whose extrema are attained only by the symmetric $W$ and GHZ local-unitary classes. Furthermore, by introducing the concept of a four-dimensional compatibility body, we show that our proposed global relation and the previous CKW relation can be uniformly viewed as different supporting directions of the same achievable set. Subsequently, we provide a necessary-and-sufficient semi-algebraic characterization of the complete four-dimensional compatibility of a three-qubit pure state. Based on this, we can conversely describe the compatibility between entangled components: given the remaining entangled components, the missing two-body entangled component can only take values within a precise parameter-free interval. We demonstrate that the above construction also applies to arbitrary concurrence-generated entanglement measures.
