Abstract: In this paper, we prove the convexity of trace functionals ${\displaystyle }$(A,B,C)mapsto ext{Tr}|B^{p}AC^{q}|^{s},${\displaystyle }$ for parameters $(p,q,s)$ that are best possible, where $B$ and $C$ are any $n$-by-$n$ positive definite matrices, and $A$ is any $n$-by-$n$ matrix. We also obtain the monotonicity versions of trace functionals of this type. As applications, we extend some results in cite{HP12quasi,CFL16some} and resolve a conjecture in cite{RZ14} in the matrix setting. Other conjectures in cite{RZ14} will also be discussed. We also show that some related trace functionals are not concave in general. Such concavity results were expected to hold in different problems.
