27. This follows from the definition of multipartite entanglement in a pure state: since the state is not separable with respect to any bipartition, it must be 4-partite entangled. Further work utilizing this definition to construct multipartite entanglement measures may be found in, for instance, A. J. Scott, Phys. Rev. A 69, 052330 (2004) 10.1103/PhysRevA.69.052330

32. Others have considered the connection between variances and entanglement measures; one particularly interesting example is I. Klich, G. Refael, and A. Silva, Phys. Rev. A 74, 032306 (2006). 10.1103/PhysRevA.74.032306
33. For example, characterizing the two-body entanglement requires calculating qubit-qubit, qubit-qutrit, and qutrit-qutrit entanglement in mixed states. Extensions to larger systems and/or more excitations would produce higher-dimensional effective systems for the field, further complicating the problem.
