A striking result from nonrelativistic quantum mechanics is the monogamy of
entanglement, which states that a particle can be maximally entangled only with
one other party, not with several ones. While there is the exact quantitative
relation for three qubits and also several inequalities describing monogamy
properties it is not clear to what extent exact monogamy relations are a
general feature of quantum mechanics. We prove that in all many-qubit systems
there exist strict monogamy laws for quantum correlations. They come about
through the curious relation between the nonrelativistic quantum mechanics of
qubits and Minkowski space. We elucidate the origin of entanglement monogamy
from this symmetry perspective and provide recipes to construct new families of
such equalities.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
