Title: Quantum Majorization on injective von Neumann algebras.

Abstract: Quantum majorization describes an ordering of states and processes in quantum mechanical systems. Recently, Gour et al proved a characterization of quantum majorization via conditional min-entropy. In this talk, I will explain the connection of their result to the tracial Hahn-Banach separation proved by Helton, Klep and McCullough. Using operator space duality, we are able to extends both results to injective von Neumann algebras. This is a joint work with Priyanga Ganesan, Satish Pandey and Sarah Plosker.
