Abstract

Let V = ⊗N k=1 Vk be an N-particle Hilbert space, whose individual single-particle space is the one with spin j and dimension d = 2j + 1. Let V(w) be the subspace of V with constant weight w, consisting of vectors whose total spins are w. We show that the combinatorial properties of the constant weight condition impose strong constraints on the reduced density matrices for any vector |ψ) in the constant weight subspace V(w), which limit the possibility of the entanglement structures of |ψ). Our results find applications in the overlapping quantum marginal problem, quantum error-correcting codes, and the spin-network structures in quantum gravity.
