Inequalities for the Schatten p-norm. III (Q1077690)

We present some inequalities for the Schatten p-norm of operators on a Hilbert space. It is shown, among other things, that if A is an operator such that Re \(A\geq a\geq 0\), then for any operator X, \(\| AX+XA^*\|_ p\geq 2a\| X\|_ p\). Also, for any two operators A and B, \(\| | A| -| B| \|^ 2_ 2+\| | A^*| -| B^*| \|^ 2_ 2\leq 2\| A-B\|^ 2_ 2\). A commutator version of the second inequality has been recently obtained by the author [in part IV, ibid. 106, 581-585 (1986)]. For Part I see Glasg. math. J. 26, 141-143 (1985; Zbl 0578.47005), part II is to appear ibid.
