Abstract

We establish some new properties of spectral geometric mean. In particular, we prove a log majorization relation between (Bts/2A(1t)sBts/2)1/s\left(B^{ts/2}A^{(1-t)s}B^{ts/2} \right)^{1/s} and the tt-spectral mean AtB:=(A1B)tA(A1B)tA\natural_t B :=(A^{-1}\sharp B)^{t}A(A^{-1}\sharp B)^{t} of two positive semidefinite matrices AA and BB, where ABA\sharp B is the geometric mean, and the tt-spectral mean is the dominant one. The limit involving tt-spectral mean is also studied. We then extend all the results in the context of symmetric spaces of negative curvature.
