Duff and S. Ferrara. It relates entanglement measures for qubits to black hole entropy, which in a certain case involves the quartic invariant on the 56-dimensional representation of the Lie group E7. In this paper we recall the relatively straightforward manner in which three-qubits lead to E7, or at least to the Weyl group of E7. We also show how the Fano plane emerges in this context.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-03-22T19:53:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "04.65.+e", "04.70.-s", "05.70.Ce", "03.65.Ud", "03.67.Ac" ], "keywords": [ "quantum information theory", "relates entanglement measures", "black hole entropy", "lie group e7", "fano plane emerges" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "doi": "10.1063/1.3519379", "journal": "Journal of Mathematical Physics", "year": 2010, "month": "Dec", "volume": 51, "number": 12, "pages": 2203 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 29, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 849564, "adsabs": "2010JMP....51l2203C" } } }
