We prove an operator inequality that extends strong subadditivity of entropy: after taking a trace, the operator inequality becomes the strong subadditivity of entropy.

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…

We investigate the question of whether the entropy and the Renyi entropies of the vacuum state reduced to a region of the space can be represented in terms of correlators in quantum field theory. In this case, the positivity relations for…

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…

Several matrix/operator inequalies are given. Most of them are unexpected extensions of the Araki Log-majorization theorem, obtained thanks to a new log-majorization for positive linear maps and normal operators (Theorem 2.9). The main idea…

In this paper we study the joint convexity/concavity of the trace functions \[ \Psi_{p,q,s}(A,B)=\text{Tr}(B^{\frac{q}{2}}K^*A^{p}KB^{\frac{q}{2}})^s,~~p,q,s\in \mathbb{R}, \] where $A$ and $B$ are positive definite matrices and $K$ is any…

We translate inequalities and conjectures for immanants and generalized matrix functions into inequalities in the L\"owner order. These have the form of trace polynomials and generalize the inequalities from [FH, J. Math. Phys. 62 (2021),…

In this note, we derive non trivial sharp bounds related to the weighted harmonic-geometric-arithmetic means inequalities, when two out of the three terms are known. As application, we give an explicit bound for the trace of the inverse of…

Motivated by nonclassical Weyl laws arising in various contexts (including Connes' approach to the Riemann Hypothesis), we develop a systematic theory of Dixmier traces and Connes' noncommutative integration for weak Lorentz ideals…
