Generalized matrix functions and some refinement inequalities

From MaRDI portal





The authors refine classical inequalities related to generalized matrix functions, specifically to permanents of doubly stochastic positive semidefinite matrices. Building on \textit{I. Schur}'s foundational work [Math. Z. 1, 184--207 (1918; JFM 46.0174.03)], the authors obtain sharper bounds and new inequalities using the Cholesky decomposition and refined the Schwarz inequalities. For example, for a subgroup \( G \subseteq S_n \), an irreducible character \( \chi \), and \( A \in M_n(\mathbb{C}) \), they prove the inequality\N\[\N\chi(e) \, d_G^\chi(AA^*) \geq |d_G^\chi(A)|^2 + \frac{\chi(e)}{t_\gamma} |d_G^\chi(A[(1, 2, \ldots, n) \mid \gamma])|^2,\N\]\Nwhere \( t_\gamma = \sum_{\sigma \in G_\gamma} \chi(\sigma) \), and \( \gamma \) is a sequence from a specific index set.\N\NAdditionally, the authors extend the results of \textit{M. Marcus} and \textit{H. Minc} [Trans. Am. Math. Soc. 116, 316--329 (1965; Zbl 0178.35902)], giving stronger lower bounds for permanent function concerning doubly stochastic positive semidefinite matrices.
