Multi-particle entanglement

Quantum Physics 2007-05-23 v2

Abstract

We review the theory of multi-particle entanglement. In this book chapter we aim at briefly ``setting the coordinates'' and guiding through the extensive literature in this field. Our coordinate system chosen for this chapter has the axes labeled pure and mixed states on the one hand, entanglement in single specimens and the asymptotic setting on the other hand. We very briefly mention ways to detect multi-particle entanglement, and introduce the concepts of stabilizer and graph states.
