Inequalities involving eigenvalues and eigenvectors (15A42) Norms of matrices, numerical range, applications of functional analysis to matrix theory (15A60)

Abstract: Let $A$ and $B$ be $nimesn$ positive definite complex matrices, let $sigma$ be a matrix mean, and let $f:[0,infty)o[0,infty)$ be a differentiable convex function with $f(0)=0$. We prove that ${\displaystyle }$f^{prime}(0)(A sigma B)leq frac{f(m)}{m}(Asigma B)leq f(A)sigma f(B)leq frac{f(M)}{M}(Asigma B)leq f^{prime}(M)(Asigma B),${\displaystyle }$ where $m$ is the smallest among eigenvalues of $A$ and $B$ and $M$ is the largest among eigenvalues of $A$ and $B$. If $f$ is differentiable concave, then the reverse inequalities hold. We use our result to improve some known subadditivity inequalities involving unitarily invariant norms under some mild conditions. In particular, if $f(x)/x$ is increasing, then ${\displaystyle }$|||f(A)+f(B)|||leqfrac{f(M)}{M} |||A+B|||leq |||f(A+B)|||${\displaystyle }$ holds for all $A$ and $B$ with $MleqA+B$. Furthermore, we apply our results to explore some related inequalities. As an application, we present a generalization of Minkowski's determinant inequality.
