Is there a formula for the eigenvalues of $\rho_A,\rho_B$ in terms of those of $\rho_{AB}$?
Let $\rho_{AB}$ be a bipartite density matrix with marginal states $\rho_A=\text{tr}_B(\rho_{AB})$ and $\rho_B=\text{tr}_A(\rho_{AB})$. In such a case, is there a formula for the eigenvalues of $\rho_ …

An extension of von Neumann entropy to observables
Suppose we define the "entropy" of a self-adjoint matrix $\rho$ as the real number $S(\rho)$ given by:
$$S(\rho)=-\text{tr}(\rho\log|\rho|)$$
(notice the absolute value on $\rho$, as $\rho$ may have n …
