More About Operator Order Preserving

Abstract

It is well known that increasing functions do not preserve operator order in general; nor do decreasing functions reverse operator order. However, operator monotone increasing or operator monotone decreasing do. In this article, we employ a convex approach to discuss operator order preserving or conversing. As an easy consequence of more general results, we find non-negative constants γ\gamma and ψ\psi such that ABA\leq B implies f(B)f(A)+γ1H   and   f(A)f(B)+ψ1H,f(B)\leq f(A)+\gamma {\bf{1}}_{\mathcal{H}}\;~{\text{and}}~\;f(A)\leq f(B)+\psi {\bf{1}}_{\mathcal{H}}, for the self adjoint operators A,BA,B on a Hilbert space H\mathcal{H} with identity operator 1H{\bf{1}}_{\mathcal{H}} and for the convex function ff whose domain contains the spectra of both AA and BB. The connection of these results to the existing literature will be discussed and the significance will be emphasized by some examples.
