Multipartite quantum correlations in the extended J1–J2 Heisenberg model

Abstract

Multipartite entanglement and the maximum violation of Bell inequalities are studied in finite clusters of spins in an extended J1–J2 Heisenberg model at zero temperature. The ensuing highly frustrated states will unveil a rich structure for different values of the corresponding spin–spin interaction strengths. The interplay between nearest-neighbors, next-nearest neighbors and further couplings will be explored using multipartite correlations. The model is relevant to certain quantum annealing computation architectures where an all-to-all connectivity is considered.
