7. By “classical method” we are referring to all methods which employ calculations based on separable states. The Hartree-Fock method along with the concept of the Fermi surface are both examples of this type of reasoning. (The Fermi sea is expressible as a single Slater determinant so it can be considered to exhibit no quantum correlations 891011.)

57. It is worth noting that the concurrence (and therefore the entanglement of formation) measures only two-party entanglement. It does not measure the many-party entanglement in states like the GHZ state (Formula presented) where the concurrence is zero for any pair of spins.

63. By a purely three-party entanglement measure we mean an entanglement measure which quantifies purely three-party entanglement such as the GHZ state (Formula presented) (we implicitly assume that this measure is non-negative). For example, associated with the tangle (Formula presented) (the tangle (Formula presented) is equal to the square of the concurrence (Formula presented) such a measure is given by the three-tangle (see Ref. 54 for further details).
