This allows us to put all correlations on an equal footing. Entanglement and dissonance, whose definition is introduced here, jointly belong to what is known as quantum discord. Our methods are completely applicable for multipartite systems of arbitrary dimensions. We investigate additivity relations between different correlations and show that dissonance may be present in pure multipartite states.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2010-03-03T01:14:24.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "03.67.Mn", "03.65.Ud" ], "keywords": [ "classical correlations", "unified view", "pure multipartite states", "dissonance", "additivity relations" ], "tags": [ "journal article", "famous paper" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review Letters", "year": 2010, "month": "Feb", "volume": 104, "number": 8, "pages": "080501" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010PhRvL.104h0501M" } } }
