Abstract
Certifying genuine multipartite entanglement in quantum systems can require a number of measurements that grows exponentially with the system size. Here we introduce a criterion based on correlation-tensor subsector lengths restricted to local measurement planes and show that it can be evaluated using partially randomized measurements without an explicit exponential dependence on the number of qubits. We derive the corresponding bounds for $k$-separable states and illustrate the criterion using representative families of multipartite entangled states. Finally, we demonstrate the practical applicability of the method on an ion-trap quantum computer by certifying genuine five-partite entanglement.
