What does it mean for one quantum process to be more disordered than another? Here we provide a precise answer to this question in terms of a quantum-mechanical generalization of majorization. The framework admits a complete description in…

We derive by lattice theory a universal quantum certainty relation for arbitrary $M$ observables in $N$-dimensional system, which provides a state-independent maximum lower bound on the direct-sum of the probability vectors in terms of…

Catalytic coherence transformations allow the otherwise impossible state transformations using only incoherent operations with the aid of an auxiliary system with finite coherence which is not being consumed in anyway. Here we find the…

A factor-graph representation of quantum-mechanical probabilities (involving any number of measurements) is proposed. Unlike standard statistical models, the proposed representation uses auxiliary variables (state variables) that are not…

In this work we show how the concept of majorization in continuous distributions can be employed to characterize chaotic, diffusive and quantum dynamics. The key point lies in that majorization allows to define an intuitive arrow of time,…

One of the main problems in any quantum resource theory is the characterization of the conversions between resources by means of the free operations of the theory. In this work, we advance on this characterization within the quantum…

The theory of majorization has seen substantial application in quantum information. Its framework predicates on the comparability between real vectors. We explore the antithesis of this premise, namely, incomparability. Specifically, we…

A continuous infinite system of point particles interacting via two-body strong superstable potential is considered in the framework of classical statistical mechanics. We define some kind of approximation of main quantities, which describe…

We consider the most general correlations that can be obtained by a group of parties whose causal relations are well-defined, although possibly probabilistic and dependent on past parties' operations. We show that, for any fixed number of…

A separable version of Ky Fan's majorization relation is proven for a sum of two operators that are each a tensor product of two positive semi-definite operators. In order to prove it, upper bounds are established for the relevant largest…
