Abstract: A conjecture posed by S. Hayajneh and F. Kittaneh claims that given $A,B$ positive matrices, $0letle1$, and any unitarily invariant norm it holds $|||A^t{B}^{1-t}+B^t{A}^{1-t}|||le|||A^t{B}^{1-t}+A^{1-t}{B}^t|||$. Recently, R. Bhatia proved the inequality for the case of the Frobenius norm and for $tin[1/4;3/4]$. In this paper, using complex methods we extend this result to complex values of the parameter $t=z$ in the strip $zinmathbbC:Re(z)in[1/4;3/4]$. We give an elementary proof of the fact that equality holds for some $z$ in the strip if and only if $A$ and $B$ commute. We also show a counterexample to the general conjecture by exhibiting a pair of positive matrices such that the claim does not hold for the uniform norm. Finally, we give a counterexample for a related singular value inequality given by $s_j(A^t{B}^{1-t}+B^t{A}^{1-t})le{s}_j(A+B)$, answering in the negative a question made by K. Audenaert and F. Kittaneh.
