Abstract

In this paper, we give the Alzer inequality for Hilbert space operators as follows: Let A,BA, B be two selfadjoint operators on a Hilbert space H\mathcal H such that 0<A,B12I0 < A, B \le \frac{1}{2}I, where II is identity operator on H\mathcal H. Also, assume that AλB:=(1λ)A+λBA \nabla_\lambda B:=(1-\lambda)A+\lambda B and AλB:=A12(A12BA12)λA12A \sharp_\lambda B:=A^{\frac{1}{2}}\left(A^{-\frac{1}{2}}BA^{-\frac{1}{2}}\right)^\lambda A^{\frac{1}{2}} are arithmetic and geometric means of A,BA, B, respectively, where 0<λ<10 < \lambda < 1. We show that if AA and BB are commuting, then B λ AB λ AA λ BA λ B, B'~\nabla_\lambda~A' - B'~\sharp_\lambda~A' \le A~\nabla_\lambda~B - A~\sharp_\lambda~B\,, where A:=IAA':=I-A, B:=IBB':=I-B and 0<λ120 < \lambda \le \frac{1}{2}. Also, we state an open problem for an extension of Alzer inequality.
