The Mathematics of Entanglement

Understand

These notes are from a series of lectures given at the Universidad de Los Andes in Bogot\'a, Colombia on some topics of current interest in quantum information.

• While they aim to be self-contained, they are necessarily incomplete and idiosyncratic in their coverage.
• For a more thorough introduction to the subject, we recommend one of the textbooks by Nielsen and Chuang or by Wilde, or the lecture notes of Mermin, Preskill or Watrous.
• Our notes by contrast are meant to be a relatively rapid introduction into some more contemporary topics in this fast-moving field.
