In this paper, we systemically introduce completely positive biquadratic (CPB) tensors and copositive biquadratic tensors. We show that all weakly CPB tensors are sum of squares tensors, the CPB tensor cone and the copositive biquadratic…
Decomposition techniques for linear programming are difficult to extend to conic optimization problems with general non-polyhedral convex cones because the conic inequalities introduce an additional nonlinear coupling between the variables.…
We prove that the only entrywise transforms of rectangular matrices which preserve total positivity or total non-negativity are either constant or linear. This follows from an extended classification of preservers of these two properties…
The problem of matrix completion and decomposition in the cone of positive semidefinite (PSD) matrices is a well-understood problem, with many important applications in areas such as linear algebra, optimization, and control theory. This…
The Leinster matrix corresponding to a finite category has entries counting the number of morphisms between objects. A first question is to know which positive integer matrices come from at least one finite category. Here, that question…
Multiplicativity of certain maximal p -> q norms of a tensor product of linear maps on matrix algebras is proved in situations in which the condition of complete positivity (CP) is either augmented by, or replaced by, the requirement that…
In order to compute the Schmidt decomposition of $A\in M_k\otimes M_m$, we must consider an associated self-adjoint map. Here, we show that if $A$ is positive under partial transposition (PPT) or symmetric with positive coefficients (SPC)…
We show that every integer doubly nonnegative $2 \times 2$ matrix has an integer cp-factorization.
The concept of the {\em half density matrix} is proposed. It unifies the quantum states which are described by density matrices and physical processes which are described by completely positive maps. With the help of the half-density-matrix…
In \cite{CMW19}, the authors introduced $k$-entanglement breaking linear maps to understand the entanglement breaking property of completely positive maps on taking composition. In this article, we do a systematic study of $k$-entanglement…
It is known that for a totally positive (TP) matrix, the eigenvalues are positive and distinct and the eigenvector associated with the smallest eigenvalue is totally nonzero and has an alternating sign pattern. Here, a certain weakening of…
The first measurements of CP violation in the $B$ system will likely probe $\sin 2\alpha$, $\sin 2\beta$ and $\cos 2\gamma$. Assuming that the CP angles $\alpha$, $\beta$ and $\gamma$ are the interior angles of the unitarity triangle, these…
Contrary to the conventional belief, time integrated asymmetry are measurable in selected final states in the neutral $B$ system at symmetric $e^+e^-$ colliders. They occur due to the interplay of weak and strong phases of two different…
Two matrices are said to be principal minor equivalent if they have equal corresponding principal minors of all orders. We give a characterization of principal minor equivalence and a deterministic polynomial time algorithm to check if two…
Two fundamental contributions to categorical quantum mechanics are presented. First, we generalize the CP-construction, that turns any dagger compact category into one with completely positive maps, to arbitrary dimension. Second, we…
Let $H$ and $K$ be (finite or infinite dimensional) complex Hilbert spaces. A characterization of positive completely bounded normal linear maps from ${\mathcal B}(H)$ into ${\mathcal B}(K)$ is given, which particularly gives a…
In this paper, we consider matrices whose entries are combinatorial sequences which can be expressed in terms of a convolution of elementary and complete homogeneous symmetric functions. We establish the total positivity of these matrices…
Let $p_1<p_2<\cdots<p_n$ be positive real numbers. It is shown that the matrix whose $i,j$ entry is $(p_i+p_j)^{p_i+p_j}$ is infinitely divisible, nonsingular and totally positive.
The study of positive-definite matrices has focused on Hermitian matrices, that is, square matrices with complex (or real) entries that are equal to their own conjugate transposes. In the classical setting, positive-definite matrices enjoy…
We study mapping cones and their dual cones of positive maps of the n by n matrices into itself. For a natural class of cones there is a close relationship between maps in the cone, super-positive maps, and separable states. In particular…
