Generalizing classical results of the theory of absolutely summing operators, in this paper we characterize the duals of a quite large class of Banach operator ideals defined or characterized by the transformation of vector-valued…
Majorization-minimization algorithms consist of successively minimizing a sequence of upper bounds of the objective function. These upper bounds are tight at the current estimate, and each iteration monotonically drives the objective…
The appearance of Marshall and Olkin's 1979 book on inequalities with special emphasis on majorization generated a surge of interest in potential applications of majorization and Schur convexity in a broad spectrum of fields. After 25 years…
We continue investigating the superintegrability property of matrix models, i.e. factorization of the matrix model averages of characters. This paper focuses on the Gaussian Hermitian example, where the role of characters is played by the…
We consider the Schur-Horn problem for normal operators in von Neumann algebras, which is the problem of characterizing the possible diagonal values of a given normal operator based on its spectral data. For normal matrices, this problem is…
We apply concepts of majorization theory to derive new insights in the field of extremal dependence structures. In particular, we consider the Rearrangement Algorithm by Puccetti and Rueschendorf, where majorization arguments yield a…
In the last decades many authors have become interested in the study of multilinear and polynomial generalizations of families of operator ideals (such as, for instance, the ideal of absolutely summing operators). However, these…
We establish new metric characterizations for the norm (respectively, ultraweak) closure of the convex hull of a bounded set in an arbitrary $C^*$-algebra (respectively, von Neumann algebra), and provide applications of these results to the…
Majorization inequalities for symmetric polynomials have interested mathematicians for centuries, from the AM-GM inequality for two variables going back at least to Euclid, through classical results of Newton, Muirhead and Gantmacher, to…
The Hardy-Littlewood-P?olya majorization theorem is extended to the framework of some spaces with a curved geometry (such as the global NPC spaces and the Wasserstein spaces). We also discuss the connection between our concept of…
Majorization-minimization schemes are a broad class of iterative methods targeting general optimization problems, including nonconvex, nonsmooth and stochastic. These algorithms minimize successively a sequence of upper bounds of the…
Using the notion of modulus of continuity at a point of a mapping between metric spaces, we introduce the notion of extensively bounded mappings generalizing that of Lipschitz mappings. We also introduce a metric on it which becomes a norm…
Inequalities among symmetric functions are fundamental in various branches of mathematics, thus motivating a systematic study of their structure. Majorization has been shown to characterize inequalities among commonly used symmetric…
In this paper, we prove a result similar to results of Itoh and Hong-Ulrich, proving that integral closure of an ideal is compatible with specialization by a general element of that ideal for ideals of height at least two in a large class…
This article is devoted to a study of majorization based on semi-doubly stochastic operators (denoted by $S\mathcal{D}(L^1)$) on $L^1(X)$ when $X$ is a $\sigma$-finite measure space. We answered Mirsky's question and characterized the…
We motivate and study an infinite sequence of binary operations on the ordinal numbers, extending the standard arithmetic on the ordinals to higher degrees of iteration. Connections to the hyperoperations on the natural numbers are…
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,…
We relate finite generation of cones, monoids, and ideals in increasing chains (the local situation) to equivariant finite generation of the corresponding limit objects (the global situation). For cones and monoids there is no analog of…
Let $\mathcal A\subseteq \mat$ be a unital $*$-subalgebra of the algebra $\mat$ of all $n\times n$ complex matrices and let $B$ be an hermitian matrix. Let $\U_n(B)$ denote the unitary orbit of $B$ in $\mat$ and let $\mathcal E_\mathcal A$…
We continue the study of how one can define means of infinite sets. We introduce many new properties, investigate their relations to each other and how they can typify a mean. We collect the properties in property groups e.g. for…
