Polarization analysis of vectorial four-wave mixing (FWM) in birefringent photonic-crystal fibers reveals physically significant tendencies in the behavior of FWM sideband correlations as a function of fiber birefringence, dispersion, and nonlinearity, as well as the pump intensity and bandwidth. Scanning over this parameter space is shown to steer vectorial FWM from largely decoupled sideband generation by individual polarization modes of the pump to FWM scenarios enabling multipartite entanglement generation.
