\begin{block}{Entanglement entropy}
For a bipartite pure state $|\Psi\rangle\in \mathcal{H}_A\otimes\mathcal{H}_B$, define the reduced state $\rho_A=\operatorname{Tr}_B\bigl(|\Psi\rangle\langle\Psi|\bigr).$ Its entanglement entropy is
$$
E(|\Psi\rangle)=S(\rho_A).
E(|\Psi\rangle)=H(\rho_A).
$$
Thus entanglement entropy is the von Neumann entropy of a subsystem, and it measures how entangled the bipartite pure state is.
