Strict convexity of the singular value sequences

From MaRDI portal





The aim of this paper is to prove the following result. Let \(A,B\) be compact operators acting on a Hilbert space. If \(s_j(A)=s_j(B)=s_j(t_0A+(1-t_0)B)\) holds for some \(0<t_0<1\) and all \(j=1,2,\dots\), then \(A=B\). Here, \(s_1(T)\geq s_2(T)\geq \dots\) are the singular values, that is, the eigenvalues of \(|T|\), \(T\) being any compact operator. Two proofs are presented. The first one is geometrical and uses the spectral theorem, while the second one is analytic using analytic multifunctions.
