The concurrence and multipartite entanglement are calculated through 2-concurrence C and 4-concurrence C4. The concurrence C and multipartite entanglement G4 depend on different coupling strengths Ji and are decreased when the temperature T is increased. For a symmetric tetrahedron lattice, the concurrence C is symmetric about J1 when J~ is negative while the multipartite entanglement G4 is symmetric about J1 when J2 〈 2. For a regular tetrahedron lattice, the concurrence G of ground state is 1/3 for ferromagnetic case while G = 0 for antiferromagnetic ca.se. However, there is no multipartitc entanglement since C4=0 in a regular tetrahedron lattice. The external magnetic field 13 can increase the maximum value of the concurrence GB and induce two or three peaks in Cn. There is a peak in the multipartite entanglement G4 B when G4B is varied as a function of the temperature T. This peak is mainly induced by the magnetic field B.展开更多
