- We show how one can use the convexity of non-commutative $L^p$ norms to bound the relative entropy between a faithful state on a von Neumann algebra and an arbitrary excitation thereof. Our results hold for general von Neumann algebras, including the local algebras of type III that are ubiquitous in quantum field theory, and do not require knowledge of the relative modular operator. As an application of our results, we prove that for the chiral current on a light ray, the relative entropy between the vacuum and a dense set of single-particle states is uniformly bounded.
