Geometric Journey Toward Genuine Multipartite Entanglement

This thesis proposes a novel measure of quantum entanglement that can be used to characterize the degree of entanglement of three (or more) parties. Entanglement has been studied and used in many ways since Erwin Schrodinger defined and named it in 1935, but quantifiable measures of the degree of entanglement, known as concurrence, have long been limited to two quantum parties (two qubits, for exa...
