In this paper, we consider the distribution property of quantum correlations in many body quantum systems and the relationship between the behavior of quantum correlations and quantum phase transitions. In the first chapter, we briefly introduce the quantum information and quantum correlation theory. In the second chapter, we introduce the concept of monogamy deficit for quantum correlation by combining two types of monogamy inequalities depending on different measurement sides. For tripartite pure states, we demonstrate a relation which connects two types of monogamy inequalities for quantum discord and provide the difference between them. By using this relation, we obtain a unified physical interpretation for these two monogamy deficits. In addition, we find the interesting fact that there is a general monogamy condition for several quantum correlations for tripartite pure states. We then provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the establishment of one kind of monogamy inequality for tripartite mixed states and generalize it to multipartite quantum states.In the third chapter, We provide a family of general monogamy inequalities for global quantum discord (GQD), which can be considered as an extension of the usual discord monogamy inequality. It can be shown that those inequalities are satisfied under the similar condition for the holding of usual monogamy relation. We find that there is an intrinsic connection among them. Furthermore, we present a different type of monogamy inequality and prove that it holds under the condition that the bipartite GQDs do not increase when tracing out some subsystems. We also study the residual GQD based on the second type of monogamy inequality. As applications of those quantities, we investigate the GQDs and residual GQD in characterizing the quantum phase transition in the transverse field Ising model.In the fourth chapter, We investigate the distribution property of one way discord in the multipartite system by introducing the concept of polygamy deficit for one way discord. The difference between one way discord and quantum discord is analogue to the one between entanglement of assistance and entanglement of formation. For tripartite pure states, two kinds of polygamy deficits are presented with the equivalent expressions and physical interpretations regardless of measurement. For four-partite pure states, we provide a condition which makes one way discord polygamy satisfied. In addition, we generalize these results to the case for N-partite pure states. In the fifth chapter, we discuss the relationship between majorization relations, Renyi entropy and quantum phase transitions. Those results can be applicable to multipartite quantum systems and are complementary to our understanding of the shareability of quantum correlations.
