We present a formula for the trace of any symmetric power of a $n\times n$ matrix (with coefficients in a field) in terms of the ordinary powers of the matrix, an arbitrarily chosen linear function which vanishes on the identity matrix, and…

We give a simple criterion so that a countable infinite direct sum of trace (evaluation) maps is a trace map. An application to the theory of self-adjoint extensions of direct sums of symmetric operators is provided; this gives an…

We extend Hardy's inequality from sequences of non-negative numbers to sequences of positive semi-definite operators if the parameter p satisfies 1<p<=2, and to operators under a trace for arbitrary p>1. Applications to trace functions are…

Let $A$ be an $m\times m$ positive semidefinite block matrix with each block being $n$-square. We write $\mathrm{tr}_1$ and $\mathrm{tr}_2$ for the first and second partial trace, respectively. In this paper, we prove the following…

Let $A$ be a positive semidefinite $m\times m$ block matrix with each block $n$-square, then the following determinantal inequality for partial traces holds \[ (\mathrm{tr} A)^{mn} - \det(\mathrm{tr}_2 A)^n \ge \bigl| \det A -…

A univariate trace polynomial is a polynomial in a variable x and formal trace symbols Tr(x^j). Such an expression can be naturally evaluated on matrices, where the trace symbols are evaluated as normalized traces. This paper addresses…

It is known that every complex trace-zero matrix is the sum of four square-zero matrices, but not necessarily of three such matrices. In this note, we prove that for every trace-zero matrix $A$ over an arbitrary field, there is a…

We introduce a generalized Wigner-Yanase skew information and then derive the trace inequality related to the uncertainty relation. This inequality is a non-trivial generalization of the uncertainty relation derived by S.Luo for the quantum…

In this paper we prove the concavity of the $k$-trace functions, $A\mapsto (\text{Tr}_k[\exp(H+\ln A)])^{1/k}$, on the convex cone of all positive definite matrices. $\text{Tr}_k[A]$ denotes the $k_{\mathrm{th}}$ elementary symmetric…

We prove a simple inequality for a sum of squares of norms of two vectors in an inner product space. Next, using this inequality we derive the so--called "reverse uncertainty relation" and analyze its properties.

We prove inequalities on symmetric tensor sums of positive definite operators. In particular, we prove multivariable operator inequalities inspired by generalizations to the well-known Hlawka and Popoviciu inequalities. As corollaries, we…

While not obvious from its initial motivation in linear algebra, there are many context where iterated traces can be defined. In this paper we prove a very general theorem about iterated 2-categorical traces. We show that many…

We first present a determinant inequality related to partial traces for positive semidefinite block matrices. Our result extends a result of Lin [Czech. Math. J. 66 (2016)] and improves a result of Kuai [Linear Multilinear Algebra 66…

In this paper we introduce a new formalism for $K$-theory, called squares $K$-theory. This formalism allows us to simultaneously generalize the usual three-term relation $[B] = [A] + [C]$ for an exact sequence $A \hookrightarrow B…

In this paper we consider the trace regression model. Assume that we observe a small set of entries or linear combinations of entries of an unknown matrix $A_0$ corrupted by noise. We propose a new rank penalized estimator of $A_0$. For…

Schur's inequality states that the sum of three special terms is always nonnegative. This note is a short review of inequalities for the sum of the reciprocals of these terms and of extensions of the latter inequalities to an arbitrary…
