The concept of entanglement has played an important role in quantum physics ever since its discovery last century and has now been recognized as a key resource in quantum information science (1–5). However, despite its evident importance, entanglement remains an enigmatic phenomenon. One important avenue to understand this enigma is via the study of entanglement measures. In this chapter, we will discuss the motivation ...
