Information, Relative Entropy of Entanglement, and Irreversibility

Leah Henderson, Vlatko Vedral · Physical Review Letters · 2000

Previously proposed measures of entanglement, such as entanglement of formation and assistance, are shown to be special cases of the relative entropy of entanglement. The difference between these measures for an ensemble of mixed states is shown to depend on the availability of classical information about particular members of the ensemble. Based on this, relations between relative entropy of entanglement and mutual information are derived.
