Robbery, burglary and larceny are all theft. Robbery is theft from a person one on one, such as "Give me your money or I will shoot you". Burglary is theft from a dwelling or business when there is no one inside the dwelling or business. Larceny is theft by falsely taking property, usually money, that is not yours as by embezzlement or writing bad checks, etc.

Theft and larceny are the same thing. Robbery includes taking something by force or threat of force, and is also considered a theft, but a much more serious crime. Burglary involves entering another home without permission with the intention of committing a crime there in. Meaning you do not have to steal anything for a burglary, for example if someone were to kick down a victim's door and beat them up, or rape them. They would be charged with burglary even though they did not intend to steal anything. They can all happen at the same time.

Theft: 1 a: the act of stealing; specifically : the felonious taking and removing of personal property with intent to deprive the rightful owner of it b: an unlawful taking (as by embezzlement or burglary) of property
Robbery: the act or practice of robbing; specifically : larceny from the person or presence of another by violence or threat
Burglary: the act of breaking and entering a dwelling at night to commit a felony (as theft); broadly : the entering of a building with the intent to commit a crime
Larceny: the unlawful taking of personal property with intent to deprive the rightful owner of it permanently
The above are dictionary definitions of the different words. I hope this helps to clarify.
