For a positive semidefinite matrix $H= \begin{bmatrix} A&X\\ X^{*}&B \end{bmatrix} $, we consider the norm inequality $ ||H||\leq ||A+B|| $. We show that this inequality holds under certain conditions. Some related topics are also…
In this note we generalize the trace inequality derived by [1] to the case where the number of terms of the sum (denoted by K) is arbitrary.
We present an Oppenheim type determinantal inequality for positive definite block matrices. Recently, Lin [Linear Algebra Appl. 452 (2014) 1--6] proved a remarkable extension of Oppenheim type inequality for block matrices, which solved a…
A formula for the partial trace of a full symmetrizer is obtained. The formula is used to provide an inductive proof of the well-known formula for the dimension of a full symmetry class of tensors.
Given a function $f:(0,\infty)\rightarrow\RR$ and a positive semidefinite $n\times n$ matrix $P$, one may define a trace functional on positive definite $n\times n$ matrices as $A\mapsto \Tr(Pf(A))$. For differentiable functions $f$, the…
A new determinant inequality of positive semidefinite matrices is discovered and proved by us. This new inequality is useful for attacking and solving a variety of optimization problems arising from the design of wireless communication…
Motivated by a recent result on finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, we prove a Jensen's inequality for partial traces in semifinite von Neumann algebras. We also prove a similar inequality in the framework of general (non-tracial) von…
Let $A$ be a positive semidefinite matrix, block partitioned as $$ A=\twomat{B}{C}{C^*}{D}, $$ where $B$ and $D$ are square blocks. We prove the following inequalities for the Schatten $q$-norm $||.||_q$, which are sharp when the blocks are…
Let $A={bmatrix} A_{11} &A_{12} A_{21} & A_{22} {bmatrix}$ be an $n\times n$ accretive-dissipative matrix, $k$ and l be the orders of $A_{11}$ and $A_{22}$, respectively, and let $m=\min\{k,l\}$. Then $$|\det A|\le a|\det A_{11}|\cdot|\det…
We first give an Oppenheim type determinantal inequality for the Khatri-Rao product of two block positive semidefinite matrices, and then we extend our result to multiple block matrices. As products, the extensions of Oppenheim type…
Some subadditivity results involving symmetric (unitarily invariant) norms are obtained. For instance, if $g(t)=\sum_{k=0}^m a_kt^k$ is a polynomial of degree $m$ with non-negative coefficients, then, for all positive operators $A,\,B$ and…
We bring in some new notions associated with $2\times 2$ block positive semidefinite matrices. These notions concern the inequalities between the singular values of the off diagonal blocks and the eigenvalues of the arithmetic mean or…
We translate inequalities and conjectures for immanants and generalized matrix functions into inequalities in the L\"owner order. These have the form of trace polynomials and generalize the inequalities from [FH, J. Math. Phys. 62 (2021),…
The aim of this paper is to study linear preservers of the trace of Kronecker sums and their connection with preservers of determinants of Kronecker products. The partial trace and partial determinant play a fundamental role in…
We prove a matrix trace inequality for completely monotone functions and for Bernstein functions. As special cases we obtain non-trivial trace inequalities for the power function x->x^q, which for certain values of q complement McCarthy's…
If $A$ is a $2n \times 2n$ real positive definite matrix, then there exists a symplectic matrix $M$ such that $M^TAM = \left [ \begin{array}{cc} D & O \\ O & D \end{array} \right ]$ where $D= \diag (d_1 (A), \ldots, d_n(A))$ is a diagonal…
Sobolev trace inequalities on nonhomogeneous fractional Sobolev spaces are established.
In this note, we present a simple proof of an analogue of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality relevant to products of determinants. Specifically, we show that $$ |\det(A^*MB)|^2\leq \det(A^*MA)\cdot \det(B^*MB),\quad A,B\in \mathbb{C}^{m\times…
In this paper we study some determinant inequalities and matrix inequalities which have a geometrical flavour. We first examine some inequalities which place work of Macbeath [13] in a more general setting and also relate to recent work of…
Consider the following noncommutative arithmetic-geometric mean inequality: given positive-semidefinite matrices $\mathbf{A}_1, \dots, \mathbf{A}_n$, the following holds for each integer $m \leq n$: $$ \frac{1}{n^m}\sum_{j_1, j_2, \dots,…
