Norm inequalities for sums of positive operators. II (Q2499041): Difference between revisions

The operator inequalities of the first part [J.~Oper.\ Theory 48, No.\,1, 95--103 (2002; Zbl 1019.47011)] are improved in the present paper. Thus, for any bounded positive operators \(A\) and \(B\) on a separable Hilbert space, the following inequalities are proven: \[ \| A+B\| \leq \max\{\| A+| B^{1/2}A^{1/2}| \| ,\| B+| A^{1/2}B^{1/2}| \| \} \] and \[ \| A+B\| _p\leq \bigl(\| A+| B^{1/2}A^{1/2}| \| _p^p+\| B+| A^{1/2}B^{1/2}| \| _p^p\bigr)^{1/p}, \] for any \(1\leq p<\infty\), where \(\| \cdot\| _p\) is the Schatten \(p\)-norm.
