Norms on complex matrices induced by random vectors II: extension of weakly unitarily invariant norms

Abstract

We improve and expand in two directions the theory of norms on complex matrices induced by random vectors. We first provide a simple proof of the classification of weakly unitarily invariant norms on the Hermitian matrices. We use this to extend the main theorem in [7] from exponent d2d\geq 2 to d1d \geq 1. Our proofs are much simpler than the originals: they do not require Lewis' framework for group invariance in convex matrix analysis. This clarification puts the entire theory on simpler foundations while extending its range of applicability.
