• Abstract summary: We show that the extremal probability vectors, in general, do not exist for the closed balls $mathcalBp_epsilon(x)$ with $1pinfty$. We also give an explicit characterization of those extremal elements in terms of the radius and the center of the ball.

• Abstract: Given a probability vector $x$ with its components sorted in non-increasing order, we consider the closed ball ${\mathcal{B}}^p_\epsilon(x)$ with $p \geq 1$ formed by the probability vectors whose $\ell^p$-norm distance to the center $x$ is less than or equal to a radius $\epsilon$. Here, we provide an order-theoretic characterization of these balls by using the majorization partial order. Unlike the case $p=1$ previously discussed in the literature, we find that the extremal probability vectors, in general, do not exist for the closed balls ${\mathcal{B}}^p_\epsilon(x)$ with $1<p<\infty$. On the other hand, we show that ${\mathcal{B}}^\infty_\epsilon(x)$ is a complete sublattice of the majorization lattice. As a consequence, this ball has also extremal elements. In addition, we give an explicit characterization of those extremal elements in terms of the radius and the center of the ball. This allows us to introduce some notions of approximate majorization and discuss its relation with previous results of approximate majorization given in terms of the $\ell^1$-norm. Finally, we apply our results to the problem of approximate conversion of resources within the framework of quantum resource theory of nonuniformity.

  Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $mathbfx*$ rather than for all $mathbfx*$ simultaneously. Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples. We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy.

  We consider the problem $(mathrmP)$ of fitting $n$ standard Gaussian random vectors in $mathbbRd$ to the boundary of a centered ellipsoid, as $n, d to infty$. This problem is conjectured to have a sharp feasibility transition: for any $varepsilon > 0$, if $n leq (1 - varepsilon) d2 / 4$ then $(mathrmP)$ has a solution with high probability.

• Near-optimal fitting of ellipsoids to random points [68.12685213894112]
  A basic problem of fitting an ellipsoid to random points has connections to low-rank matrix decompositions, independent component analysis, and principal component analysis. We resolve this conjecture up to logarithmic factors by constructing a fitting ellipsoid for some $n = Omega(, d2/mathrmpolylog(d),)$. Our proof demonstrates feasibility of the least squares construction of Saunderson et al. using a convenient decomposition of a certain non-standard random matrix.

  The observables associated with a quantum system $S$ form a non-commutative algebra $mathcal A_S$. It is assumed that a density matrix $rho$ can be determined from the expectation values of observables. Abelian algebras do not have inner automorphisms, so the measurement apparatus can determine mean values of observables.
