Abstract

Let A{\mathfrak A} be a CC^*-algebra, TT be a locally compact Hausdorff space equipped with a probability measure PP and let (At)tT(A_t)_{t\in T} be a continuous field of operators in A{\mathfrak A} such that the function tAtt \mapsto A_t is norm continuous on TT and the function tAtt \mapsto \|A_t\| is integrable. Then the following equality including Bouchner integrals holds \begin{eqnarray}\label{oi} \int_T|A_t - \int_TA_s{\rm d}P|^2 {\rm d}P=\int_T|A_t|^2{\rm d}P - |\int_TA_t{\rm d}P|^2 . \end{eqnarray} This equality is related both to the notion of variance in statistics and to a characterization of inner product spaces. With this operator equality, we present some uniform norm and Schatten pp-norm inequalities.
