# Conditions for a class of entanglement transformations

## acknowledgments

Thanks to Howard Barnum, who introduced me to the beautiful subject of majorization, to Dorit Aharonov and Bill Wootters, whose words and papers convinced me that entanglement for its own sake is a deeply interesting subject, and to Ike Chuang, Chris Fuchs, Julia Kempe, and John Preskill for helpful discussions. This work was supported by a Tolman Fellowship, and by DARPA through the Quantum Information and Computing Institute (QUIC) administered through the ARO.
