Abstract: We employ a basic formalism from convex analysis to show a simple relation between the entanglement of formation $E_F$ and the conjugate function $E^{\ast }$ of the entanglement function $E(ho)=S(rac{e}_{A}ho)$. We then consider the conjectured strong superadditivity of the entanglement of formation $E_F(ho)ge{E}_F(h{o}_I)+E_F(h{o}_{II})$, where $h{o}_I$ and $h{o}_{II}$ are the reductions of $ho$ to the different Hilbert space copies, and prove that it is equivalent with subadditivity of $E^{\ast }$. As an application, we show that strong superadditivity would follow from multiplicativity of the maximal channel output purity for all non-trace-preserving quantum channels, when purity is measured by Schatten $p$-norms for $p$ tending to 1.
