Consider a ring of N qubits in a translationally invariant quantum state. We ask to what extent each pair. of nearest neighbors can be entangled. Under certain assumptions about the form of the state, we find a formula for the maximum possible nearest-neighbor entanglement. We then compare this maximum with the entanglement achieved by the ground state of an antiferromagnetic ring consisting of an even number of spin-1/2 particles. We find that, though the antiferromagnetic ground state typically does not maximize the nearest-neighbor entanglement relative to all other states, it does so relative to other states having zero z component of spin.
