Recap of the previous lecture.

The missing operation: copy. 

Proof why it is not possible to copy arbitrary unknown quantum states.


The notion of entanglement.

Formal definition via product state.

Examples: The EPR pair, the Bell states, GHZ;


How to create Bell states.

Examples in qiskit.


The power of entanglement: 

Teleportation with "distributed Cnot";

Teleportation with entanglement;
