Remarks on a question of Bourin for positive semidefinite matrices (Q2693768)

For positive semidefinite matrices \(A\) and \(B\) over the field of complex numbers, the authors prove the norm inequalities \[ |||A^tB^{1-t}+B^tA^{1-t}|||\leq 2^{2(t-3/4)}|||A+B||| , \] if \(t\in [3/4,1]\) and \[ |||A^tB^{1-t}+B^tA^{1-t}|||\leq 2^{2(1/4-t)}|||A+B||| , \] if \(t\in [0,1/4].\) Here \(|||\cdot |||\) is any unitarily invariant norm.
