dc.description.abstract	One of the exciting new phenomena that have risen from quantum mechanics is quantum entanglement. In this paper we study the basic mathematical properties of an entangled state as well as its entanglement entropy. These concepts together with the formalism of second quantization will be studied with respect to finite one-dimensional transverse field Ising models.
