Abstract: An important problem in quantum information theory is the mathematical characterization of the phenomenon of quantum catalysis: when can the surrounding entanglement be used to perform transformations of a jointly held quantum state under LOCC (local operations and classical communication) ? Mathematically, the question amounts to describe, for a fixed vector y, the set T(y) of vectors x such that we have xotimeszprecyotimesz for some z, where prec denotes the standard majorization relation. Our main result is that the closure of T(y) in the ell1 norm can be fully described by inequalities on the ellp norms: |x|pleq|y|p for all pgeq1. This is a first step towards a complete description of T(y) itself. It can also be seen as a ellp-norm analogue of Ky Fan dominance theorem about unitarily invariant norms. The proofs exploits links with another quantum phenomenon: the possibiliy of multiple-copy transformations (xotimesnprecyotimesn for given n). The main new tool is a variant of Cram'er$ theorem on large deviations for sums of i.i.d. random variables.
