Generality of Lieb's Concavity Theorem

Abstract: We show that Lieb's concavity theorem holds more generally for any unitarily invariant matrix function

p h i : m a t h b f H_{+}^{n} i g h t a r r o w m a t h b b R

that is monotone and concave. Concretely, we prove the joint concavity of the function

on

m a t h b f H_{+}^{m} i m e s m a t h b f H_{+}^{n}

, for any

K i n m a t h b b C^{m i m e s n}, s i n (0, 1], p, q i n [0, 1], p + q l e q 1

.
