The main goal of this article is to study the existence of a unique positive definite common solution to a pair of matrix equations of the form \begin{eqnarray*} X^r=Q_1 + \displaystyle \sum_{i=1}^{m} {A_i}^*F(X)A_i \mbox{ and } X^s=Q_2 +…

In comparing geodesics induced by different metrics, Audenaert formulated the following determinantal inequality $$\det(A^2+|BA|)\le \det(A^2+AB),$$ where $A, B$ are $n\times n$ positive semidefinite matrices. We complement his result by…
Given positive numbers p_1 < p_2 < ... < p_n, and a real number r let L_r be the n by n matrix with its (i,j) entry equal to (p_i^r-p_j^r)/(p_i-p_j). A well-known theorem of C. Loewner says that L_r is positive definite when 0 < r < 1. In…
We introduce two equations expressing the inverse determinant of a full rank matrix $\mathbf{A} \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times n}$ in terms of expectations over matrix-vector products. The first relationship is $|\mathrm{det} (\mathbf{A})|^{-1} =…

A generalized word in two positive definite matrices A and B is a finite product of nonzero real powers of A and B. Symmetric words in positive definite A and B are positive definite, and so for fxed B, we can view a symmetric word, S(A,B),…

In this note we prove that Tr (MN+ PQ)>= 0 when the following two conditions are met: (i) the matrices M, N, P, Q are structured as follows: M = A -B, N = inv(B)-inv(A), P = C-D, Q =inv (B+D)-inv(A+C), where inv(X) denotes the inverse…
Let $A, B$ be positive definite $n\times n$ matrices. We present several reverse Heinz type inequalities, in particular \begin{align*} \|AX+XB\|_2^2+ 2(\nu-1) \|AX-XB\|_2^2\leq \|A^{\nu}XB^{1-\nu}+A^{1-\nu}XB^{\nu}\|_2^2, \end{align*} where…
