Let $A$ be a positive definite operator on a Hilbert space $H$, and $|||.|||$ be a unitarily invariant norm on $B(H)$. We show that if $f$ is an operator monotone function on $(0,\infty)$ and $n\in \mathbb{N}$, then $|||D^n…

We establish symmetrization results for the solutions of the linear fractional diffusion equation $\partial_t u +(-\Delta)^{\sigma/2}u=f$ and itselliptic counterpart $h v +(-\Delta)^{\sigma/2}v=f$, $h>0$, using the concept of comparison of…

We refine Epstein's method to prove joint concavity/convexity of matrix trace functions of the extended Lieb type $Tr{\Phi(A^p)^{1/2}\Psi(B^q)\Phi(A^p)^{1/2}}^s$, where $\Phi$ and $\Psi$ are positive linear maps. By the same method combined…

We introduce a property of a matrix-valued linear map $\Phi$ that we call its "non-m-positive dimension" (or "non-mP dimension" for short), which measures how large a subspace can be if every quantum state supported on the subspace is…
