Superadditivity of quantum relative entropy for general states

The property of superadditivity of the quantum relative entropy states that, in a bipartite system $\mathcal{H}_{AB}=\mathcal{H}_A \otimes \mathcal{H}_B$, for every density operator $\rho_{AB}$ one has $D( \rho_{AB} || \sigma_A \otimes \sigma_B ) \ge D( \rho_A || \sigma_A ) +D( \rho_B || \sigma_B)$. In this work, we provide an extension of this inequality for arbitrary density operators $\sigma_{AB}$. More specifically, we prove that $\alpha (\sigma_{AB})\cdot D({\rho_{AB}}||{\sigma_{AB}}) \ge D({\rho_A}||{\sigma_A})+D({\rho_B}||{\sigma_B})$ holds for all bipartite states $\rho_{AB}$ and $\sigma_{AB}$, where $\alpha(\sigma_{AB})= 1+2 || \sigma_A^{-1/2} \otimes \sigma_B^{-1/2} \, \sigma_{AB} \, \sigma_A^{-1/2} \otimes \sigma_B^{-1/2} - \mathbb{1}_{AB} ||_\infty$.
