Multipartite quantum correlation and entanglement in four-qubit pure states
Based on the quantitative complementarity relations, we analyze thoroughly
the properties of multipartite quantum correlations and entanglement in
four-qubit pure states. We find that, unlike the three-qubit case, the single
residual correlation, the genuine three- and four-qubit correlations are not
suited to quantify entanglement. More interestingly, from our qualitative and
numerical analysis, it is conjectured that the sum of all the residual
correlations may constitute a good measure for the total multipartite
entanglement in the system.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figue
Testing linear hypotheses in high-dimensional regressions
For a multivariate linear model, Wilk's likelihood ratio test (LRT)
constitutes one of the cornerstone tools. However, the computation of its
quantiles under the null or the alternative requires complex analytic
approximations and more importantly, these distributional approximations are
feasible only for moderate dimension of the dependent variable, say .
On the other hand, assuming that the data dimension as well as the number
of regression variables are fixed while the sample size grows, several
asymptotic approximations are proposed in the literature for Wilk's \bLa
including the widely used chi-square approximation. In this paper, we consider
necessary modifications to Wilk's test in a high-dimensional context,
specifically assuming a high data dimension and a large sample size .
Based on recent random matrix theory, the correction we propose to Wilk's test
is asymptotically Gaussian under the null and simulations demonstrate that the
corrected LRT has very satisfactory size and power, surely in the large and
large context, but also for moderately large data dimensions like or
. As a byproduct, we give a reason explaining why the standard chi-square
approximation fails for high-dimensional data. We also introduce a new
procedure for the classical multiple sample significance test in MANOVA which
is valid for high-dimensional data.Comment: Accepted 02/2012 for publication in "Statistics". 20 pages, 2 pages

Multipartite entanglement in four-qubit cluster-class states
Based on quantitative complementarity relations (QCRs), we analyze the
multipartite correlations in four-qubit cluster-class states. It is proven
analytically that the average multipartite correlation is entanglement
monotone. Moreover, it is also shown that the mixed three-tangle is a
correlation measure compatible with the QCRs in this kind of quantum states.
More arrestingly, with the aid of the QCRs, a set of hierarchy entanglement
measures is obtained rigorously in the present system.Comment: 7 pages, 3 figs, version 3, some refs. are adde
Quantum state redistribution based on a generalized decoupling
We develop a simple protocol for a one-shot version of quantum state
redistribution, which is the most general two-terminal source coding problem.
The protocol is simplified from a combination of protocols for the fully
quantum reverse Shannon and fully quantum Slepian-Wolf problems, with its
time-reversal symmetry being apparent. When the protocol is applied to the case
where the redistributed states have a tensor power structure, more natural
resource rates are obtained
