Abstract

We derive a general expression for standard tensor norm of N-body correlation tensors for N-qubit complete graph states. With the help of this expression, we formulate a separability criterion that identifies non-k-separability of a class of N-qubit complete graph states, including GHZ state. We illustrate the performance of our criterion by considering the N-qubit complete graph states added with colored product noise. We also demonstrate that few local measurement settings are sufficient to evaluate our criterion.
