In holographic states (quantum systems dual to gravity), four-party entanglement signals fail unless triple information is nonzero. The authors show triple information bounds all multi-entropy entanglement measures, making it the strongest known probe of four-particle quantum correlations. One alternative measure, residual entropy, escapes this bound but vanishes whenever triple information does.
