Abstract
We present the modified relative entropy of entanglement (MRE) that is proved to be a upper bound of distillable entanglement (DE), also relative entropy of entanglement (RE), and a lower bound of entanglement of formation (EF). For a pure state, MRE is found by the requirement that MRE is equal to EF. For a mixed state, MRE is calculated by defining a total relative density matrix. We obtain an explicit and "weak" closed expressions of MRE that depends on the pure state decompositions for two qubit systems and give out an algorithm to calculate MRE in principle for more qubit systems. MRE significantly improves the computability of RE, decreases the sensitivity on the pure state decompositions in EF, reveals the particular difference of similar departure states from Bell's state and restore the logarithmic dependence on probability of component states consistent with information theory. As examples, we calculate MRE of the mixture of Bell's states and departure states from Bell's states, and compare them with EF as well as Wootters' EF. Moreover we study the important properties of MRE including the behavior under local general measurement (LGM) and classical communication (CC).
