• Title: Strict Positivity and $D$-Majorization
• Authors: Frederik vom Ende
• Abstract summary: We first investigate the notion of strict positivity, that is, linear maps which map positive definite states to something positive definite again. We show that strict positivity is decided by the action on any full-rank state, and that the image of non-strictly positive maps lives inside a lower-dimensional subalgebra.

• Abstract: Motivated by quantum thermodynamics we first investigate the notion of strict positivity, that is, linear maps which map positive definite states to something positive definite again. We show that strict positivity is decided by the action on any full-rank state, and that the image of non-strictly positive maps lives inside a lower-dimensional subalgebra. This implies that the distance of such maps to the identity channel is lower bounded by one. The notion of strict positivity comes in handy when generalizing the majorization ordering on real vectors with respect to a positive vector $d$ to majorization on square matrices with respect to a positive definite matrix $D$. For the two-dimensional case we give a characterization of this ordering via finitely many trace norm inequalities and, moreover, investigate some of its order properties. In particular it admits a unique minimal and a maximal element. The latter is unique as well if and only if minimal eigenvalue of $D$ has multiplicity one.

  We propose a highly efficient algorithm that converts fermionic Gaussian states to matrix product states. It can be formulated for finite-size systems without translation invariance, but becomes particularly appealing when applied to infinite systems. The potential of our method is demonstrated by numerical calculations in two chiral spin liquids.

• Infinite dimensional analogues of Choi matrices [0.0]
  Choi matrices are useful to characterize positivity of maps as well as complete positivity. It turns out that such correspondences are possible for every normal completely bounded map if and only if the factor is of type I. We also define the notion of $k$-superpositive maps, which turns out to be equivalent to the property of $k$-partially entanglement breaking.

• A random copositive matrix is completely positive with positive probability [0.0]
  An $ntimes n$ symmetric matrix $A$ is copositive if the quadratic form $xTAx$ is nonnegative on the nonnegative orthant. The main result, proved using Blekherman's real algebraic geometry inspired techniques and tools of convex geometry, shows that as $n$ goes to infinity, the ratio of volume radii of the two cones is strictly positive.

• Counterexamples to the extendibility of positive unital norm-one maps [5.926203312586108]
  Arveson's extension theorem guarantees that every completely positive map defined on an operator system can be extended to a completely positive map defined on the whole C*-algebra containing it. An analogous statement where complete positivity is replaced by positivity is known to be false. Here we provide three counterexamples showing that positive norm-one unital maps defined on an operator subsystem cannot be extended to a positive map on the full matrix algebra.

  Dot product embeddings take a graph and construct vectors for nodes such that dot products between two vectors give the strength of the edge. We remove the transitivity assumption by embedding nodes into a pseudo-Euclidean space. Pseudo-Euclidean embeddings can compress networks efficiently, allow for multiple notions of nearest neighbors each with their own interpretation, and can be slotted' into existing models.
