Majorization and measures of classical polarization in three dimensions.
نویسندگان
چکیده
There has been much discussion in the literature about rival measures of classical polarization in three dimensions. We gather and compare the various proposed measures of polarization, creating a geometric representation of the polarization state space in the process. We use majorization, previously used in quantum information, as a criterion to establish a partial ordering on the polarization state space. Using this criterion and other considerations, the most useful polarization measure in three dimensions is found to be one dependent on the Bloch vector decomposition of the polarization matrix.

Majorization for partially ordered sets
We generalize the classical notion of majorization in Rn to a majorization order for functions defined on a partially ordered set P . In this generalization we use inequalities for partial sums associated with ideals in P . Basic properties are established, including connections to classical majorization. Moreover, we investigate transfers (given by doubly stochastic matrices), complexity issue...
متن کاملEffect of Classical Music on Physiological Characteristics and Observational and Behavioral Measures of Pain in Unconscious Patients Admitted to Intensive Care Units
Objective: Assessment and management of pain in patients under artificial respiration and hospitalized in Intensive Care Units (ICUs) are difficult, and is less considered by physicians and nurses. This study aims to determine the effect of classical music on physiological characteristics, and observational and behavioral measures of pain in unconscious patients admitted to ICUs. Methods: This...
متن کاملMatrix majorization Geir Dahl
We study the conceptmatrix majorization: for two real matrices A and B having m rows we say that A majorizes B if there is a row-stochastic matrix X with AX = B. A special case is classical notion of vector majorization. Several properties and characterizations of matrix majorization are given. Moreover, interpretations of the concept in mathematical statistics are discussed and some combinator...
متن کاملMajorization framework for balancedlattice designs
This paper aims to generalize and unify classical criteria for comparisons of balanced lattice designs, including fractional factorial designs, supersaturated designs and uniform designs. We present a general majorization framework for assessing designs, which includes a stringent criterion of majorization via pairwise coincidences and flexible surrogates via convex functions. Classical orthogo...
