In this paper, we study majorization for probability distributions and column stochastic matrices. We show that majorizations in general can be reduced to the aforementioned sets. We characterize linear operators that preserve majorization…

One tuple of probability vectors is more informative than another tuple when there exists a single stochastic matrix transforming the probability vectors of the first tuple into the probability vectors of the other. This is called matrix…

We consider positive, integral-preserving linear operators acting on $L^1$ space, known as stochastic operators or Markov operators. We show that, on finite-dimensional spaces, any stochastic operator can be approximated by a sequence of…

Root systems are sets with remarkable symmetries and therefore they appear in many situations in mathematics. Among others, denominator formulae of root systems are very beautiful and mysterious equations which have several meanings from a…

It is shown that if two hyperbolic polynomials have a particular factorization into quadratics, then their roots satisfy a power majorization relation whenever key coefficients in their factorizations satisfy a corresponding majorization…

We investigate geometric and topological properties of $d$-majorization -- a generalization of classical majorization to positive weight vectors $d \in \mathbb{R}^n$. In particular, we derive a new, simplified characterization of…

We give necessary and sufficient conditions for majorization of realrooted polynomials sharing a common interlacer by means of residues coming from fraction decomposition. We also introduce a motivated notion called strong majorization, and…

Orbits of automorphism groups of partially ordered sets are not necessarily congruence classes, i.e. images of an order homomorphism. Based on so-called orbit categories a framework of factorisations and unfoldings is developed that…

We show that majorization provides a powerful approach to the coherence conveyed by partially polarized transversal electromagnetic waves. Here we present the formalism, provide some examples and compare with standard measures of…

The paper has two main goals. The first is to take a new approach to rearrangements on certain classes of measurable real-valued functions on $\mathbb{R}^n$. Rearrangements are maps that are monotonic (up to sets of measure zero) and…

We define the notion of a specialization morphism from a locally noetherian analytic adic space to a scheme. This captures the (classical) specialization morphism associated to a formal scheme. There is a well behaved theory of…

We study the characterisation of efficient and non-efficient families of Grover's algorithms according to the majorization principle. We develop a geometrical interpretation based on the parameters that appears on these algorithms. Using…
