We consider the equal sum partition problem, motivated by distance magic graph labeling: Given $n,k \in \N$ such that $k\, | \sum_{i=1}^ni$ and a partition $p_1+\cdots+p_k=n$, when is it possible to find a partition of the set…
Let $q, r, s \geqslant 1$ satisfy $\frac{1}{2q} + \frac{1}{2r} = \frac{1}{s}$ and $X \in \mathcal{C}_s(\mathcal{H})$. If $(\lambda_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}, (w_n)_{n=1}^{\infty}$ are sequences in $(0,+\infty)$ and $(\lambda_n^{(1-q)/(2q)}…
We consider the following oblivious sketching problem: given $\epsilon \in (0,1/3)$ and $n \geq d/\epsilon^2$, design a distribution $\mathcal{D}$ over $\mathbb{R}^{k \times nd}$ and a function $f: \mathbb{R}^k \times \mathbb{R}^{nd}…
We consider norms on a complex separable Hilbert space such that $\langle a\xi,\xi\rangle\leq\|\xi\|^2\leq\langle b\xi,\xi\rangle$ for positive invertible operators $a$ and $b$ that differ by an operator in the Schatten class. We prove that…
Inspired by the `computable cross norm' or `realignment' criterion, we propose a new point of view about the characterization of the states of bipartite quantum systems. We consider a Schmidt decomposition of a bipartite density operator.…
The classical A. Markov inequality establishes a relation between the maximum modulus or the $L^{\infty}\left([-1,1]\right)$ norm of a polynomial $Q_{n}$ and of its derivative: $\|Q'_{n}\|\leqslant M_{n} n^{2}\|Q_{n}\|$, where the constant…
We prove some eigenvalue inequalities for positive semidefinite matrices partitioned into four blocks. The inradius of the numerical range of the off-diagonal block contributes to these estimates. Some related norm inequalities are given…
The main purpose of this paper is to englobe some new and known types of Hermitian block-matrices $M=\begin{pmatrix} A \& X\\ {X^*} \& B\end{pmatrix}$ satisfying or not the inequality $\|M\|\le \|A+B\|$ for all symmetric norms
We study the problem of testing whether a symmetric $d \times d$ input matrix $A$ is symmetric positive semidefinite (PSD), or is $\epsilon$-far from the PSD cone, meaning that $\lambda_{\min}(A) \leq - \epsilon \|A\|_p$, where $\|A\|_p$ is…
We consider the quantum complexity of computing Schatten $p$-norms and related quantities, and find that the problem of estimating these quantities is closely related to the one clean qubit model of computation. We show that the problem of…
We continue the study of real polynomials acting entrywise on matrices of fixed dimension to preserve positive semidefiniteness, together with the related analysis of order properties of Schur polynomials. Previous work has shown that,…
Positive semidefinite matrices partitioned into a small number of Hermitian blocks have a remarkable property. Such a matrix may be written in a simple way from the sum of its diagonal blocks
The main purpose of this paper is, in the general setting of the adjointable operators on Hilbert $C^*$-modules, to develop two new tools that can be applied to deal with the positive solutions of certain operator equations, the operator…
The parity of the partition function $p(n)$ remains strikingly mysterious. Beyond a handful of fragmentary results, essentially nothing is known about the distribution of parity. We prove a uniform result on quadratic progressions. If…
For $k=1,\ldots,K$, let $A_k$ and $B_k$ be positive semidefinite matrices such that, for each $k$, $A_k$ commutes with $B_k$. We show that, for any unitarily invariant norm, \[ |||\sum_{k=1}^K A_kB_k||| \le ||| (\sum_{k=1}^K…
Sukochev and Zanin resolved an open problem due to B. Simon concerning optimal constants in H\"older inequality for the weak Schatten classes of compact operators. In this note we observe that these constants, by introducing the modified…
We prove the little Grothendieck theorem for any 2-convex noncommutative symmetric space. Let $\M$ be a von Neumann algebra equipped with a normal faithful semifinite trace $\t$, and let $E$ be an r.i. space on $(0, \8)$. Let $E(\M)$ be the…
We present a quasipolynomial-time algorithm for solving the weak membership problem for the convex set of separable, i.e. non-entangled, bipartite density matrices. The algorithm decides whether a density matrix is separable or whether it…
In this paper we prove asymptotically sharp weighted "first-and-a-half" $2D$ Korn and Korn-like inequalities with a singular weight occurring from Cartesian to cylindrical change of variables. We prove some Hardy and the so-called "harmonic…
It has recently been pointed out that the geometric quantum discord, as defined by the Hilbert-Schmidt norm (2-norm), is not a good measure of quantum correlations, since it may increase under local reversible operations on the unmeasured…
