Kreiss resolvent conditions and strengthened Cauchy-Schwarz inequalities (Q1902063)

It is shown how the resolvent conditions in the Kreiss matrix theorem [see \textit{H.-O. Kreiss}, BIT 2, 153-181 (1962; Zbl 0109.347)] for \(e^{tA}\) and \(A^\nu\), respectively, can be reformulated as certain strengthened Cauchy-Schwarz inequalities to be satisfied for all pairs \(w\), \(Aw\) \((w\in \mathbb{C}^n)\). This yields certain generalizations of the notions ``logarithmic norm'' and ``numerical radius'', respectively.
