Abstract
This article is a 50-page study of entanglement theory. First, the basic of quantum mechanics and mathematical definition of entanglement is presented. Second, entanglement is described as a physical phenomenon that set Quantum Mechanics distinct from Classical Physics. Third, entanglement as a physical resource for quantum communication is discussed with applications, the distillation process, and quantification problem. Fourth, several methods to detect entanglement are addressed. Detecting entanglement is shown to have a closed connection with positive maps in operator theory.
