On Stable embeddability of partitions

Abstract

Several natural partial orders on integral partitions, such as the embeddability, the stable embeddability, the bulk embeddability and the supermajorization, raise in the quantum computation, bin-packing and matrix analysis. We find the implications between these partial orders. For integral partitions whose entries are all powers of a fixed number $p$, we show that the embeddability is completely determined by the supermajorization order and we find an algorithm to determine the stable embeddability.
