The notion of entanglement is the most well-known nonclassical correlation in quantum mechanics, and a fundamental resource in quantum information and computation. This correlation, which is displayed by certain classes of quantum states, is of utmost importance when dealing with protocols, such as quantum teleportation, cryptography and quantum key distribution. In this paper, we exploit a classification of tripartite entanglement by introducing the concepts of entangled hypergraph and evolving entangled hypergraph as data structures suitable to model quantum protocols which use entanglement. Finally, we present a few examples to provide applications of this model.
