Abstract

Let g{\mathfrak g} be a Garding-Dirichlet operator on the set S(n) of symmetric n×nn\times n matrices. We assume that g{\mathfrak g} is II-central, that is, DIg=kID_I {\mathfrak g} = k I for some k>0k>0. Then g(A)1N  g(I)1N(detA)1nA>0. {\mathfrak g}(A)^{1\over N} \ \geq\ {\mathfrak g}(I)^{1\over N} (\det\, A)^{1\over n} \qquad \forall\, A>0. From work of Guo, Phong, Tong, Abja, Dinew, Olive and many others, this inequality has important applications.
