In a seminal paper "Volumen und Oberfl\"ache" (1903), Minkowski introduced the basic notion of mixed volumes and the corresponding inequalities that lie at the heart of convex geometry. The fundamental importance of characterizing the…
We refine Epstein's method to prove joint concavity/convexity of matrix trace functions of Lieb type $\mathrm{Tr}\,f(\Phi(A^p)^{1/2}\Psi(B^q)\Phi(A^p)^{1/2})$ and symmetric (anti-) norm functions of the form…
We show that Lieb's concavity theorem holds more generally for any unitarily invariant matrix function $\phi:\mathbf{H}^n_+\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ that is monotone and concave. Concretely, we prove the joint concavity of the function $(A,B)…
We revisit and improve joint concavity/convexity and monotonicity properties of quasi-entropies due to Petz in a new fashion. Then we characterize equality cases in the monotonicity inequalities (the data-processing inequalities) of…
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…
In recent years, random matrices have come to play a major role in computational mathematics, but most of the classical areas of random matrix theory remain the province of experts. Over the last decade, with the advent of matrix…
The appearance of Marshall and Olkin's 1979 book on inequalities with special emphasis on majorization generated a surge of interest in potential applications of majorization and Schur convexity in a broad spectrum of fields. After 25 years…
This paper is essentially derived from the observation that some results used for improving constants in the Lieb-Thirring inequalities for Schrodinger operators in L2(-\infty,\infty) can be translated to the discrete Schrodinger op-…
Mathematical physics has many facets, of which we shall briefly give a (very partial) description, centered around those of main interest for Elliott and us (Moshe Flato and I). In our case these aspects had as a corollary a variety of…
We consider a family of multivariate trace inequalities recently derived by Sutter, Berta and Tomamichel. These inequalities generalize the Golden-Thompson inequality and Lieb's three-matrix inequality to an arbitrary number of matrices in…
We show that Lieb's concavity theorem holds more generally for any unitary invariant matrix function $\phi:\mathbf{H}_+^n\rightarrow \mathbb{R}_+^n$ that is concave and satisfies H\"older's inequality. Concretely, we prove the joint…
A new and elementary proof of a recent result of Laptev and Weidl is given. It is a sharp Lieb-Thirring inequality for one dimensional Schroedinger operators with matrix valued potentials.
In this work, Bernstein's concentration inequalities for squared integrable matrix-valued discrete-time martingales are obtained. Based on Lieb's theory and Bernstein's condition, a suitable supermartingale can be constructed. Our proof is…
The objective of this paper is to find some inequalities satisfied by periodical solutions of multi-time Hamilton systems, when the Hamiltonian is convex. To our knowledge, this subject of first-order field theory is still open. Section 1…
A famous result of Lieb establishes that the map $(A,B) \mapsto \text{tr}\left[K^* A^{1-t} K B^t\right]$ is jointly concave in the pair $(A,B)$ of positive definite matrices, where $K$ is a fixed matrix and $t \in [0,1]$. In this paper we…
We consider convex bodies in $M_{n,m}(\mathbb R)$, the space of matrices of $n$-rows and $m$-columns. A special case of fiber-symmetrization in $M_{n,m}(\mathbb R)$ was recently introduced in [5,6]. We prove a…
In this article, we prove that convex functions and log-convex functions obey certain general refinements that lead to several refinements and reverses of well known inequalities for matrices, including Young's inequality, Heinz inequality,…
This is a survey of results mostly relating elliptic equations and systems of arbitrary even order with rough coefficients in Lipschitz graph domains. Asymptotic properties of solutions at a point of a Lipschitz boundary are also discussed.
We prove some new results and unify the proofs of old ones involving complete monotonicity of expressions involving gamma and $q$-gamma functions, $0 < q < 1$. Each of these results implies the infinite divisibility of a related probability…
We consider uniformly strongly elliptic systems of the second order with bounded coefficients. First, sufficient conditions for the invariance of convex bodies obtained for linear systems without zero order term in bounded domains and…
