Entanglement: Estimation, Extraction, and Transfer — Part 2

In this talk some recent developments on entanglement theory will be addressed. A simple strategy of entanglement estimation, given by a lower bound on the Generalized Robustness of Entanglement will be explained. A second topic will be entanglement extraction. We will dicuss how to get entanglement from a degenerate Fermi gas, and also describe two distinct experimental proposals, one with ultra-cold neutrons, other with semi-conductors. Finally, the problem of Entanglement Transfer from a pair of qubits to another pair will be described with the exhibition of some recent results.
