Detecting genuine multipartite entanglement in multi-qubit devices with restricted measurements

Detecting genuine multipartite entanglement (GME) is a state-characterization task that benchmarks coherence and experimental control in quantum systems. Existing GME tests often require joint measurements on many qubits, posing challenges for systems like time-bin encoded qubits and microwave photons from superconducting circuits, where qubit connectivity is limited or measurement noise grows with the number of jointly measured qubits. Here we introduce versatile GME and k-inseparability criteria applicable to any state, which only require measuring O(n²) out of 2ⁿ (at most) m-body stabilizers of n-qubit target graph states, with m upper-bounded by twice the graph's maximum degree. For cluster or ring-graph states, only constant-weight stabilizers are needed. Using semidefinite programming (and sometimes graph-local complementations), we can reduce the number or weight of required stabilizers. Analytical and numerical results show that our criteria are noise-robust and may infer state infidelity from certified k-inseparability in microwave photonic graph states generated under realistic conditions.
