In this paper, we consider a two-variable operator function that includes two weighted spectral geometric means, and show fundamental properties of the operator function. Moreover, it satisfies the Ando-Hiai type inequality under some restricted conditions. As an application, we show the log-majorization relations and norm inequalities for the spectral geometric means of positive definite matrices.
In this paper, we generalize the ALM-procedure introduced by Ando, Li, and Mathias for extending operator geometric means to multiple variables. We prove that the generalized procedure preserves all the properties required by the axioms of operator means, along with several additional desirable properties. Moreover, we examine the self-adjointness of the canonical geometric mean constructed through this procedure.
In this article, we first study, in the framework of operator theory, Pusz and Woronowicz's functional calculus for pairs of bounded positive operators on Hilbert spaces associated with a homogeneous two-variable function on $[0,\infty)^2$. Our construction has special features that functions on $[0,\infty)^2$ are assumed only locally bounded from below and that the functional calculus is allowed to take extended semibounded self-adjoint operators. To analyze convexity properties of the functional calculus, we extend the notion of operator convexity for real functions to that for functions with values in $(-\infty,\infty]$. Based on the first part, we generalize the concept of operator convex perspectives to pairs of (not necessarily invertible) bounded positive operators associated with any operator convex function on $(0,\infty)$. We then develop theory of such operator convex perspectives, regarded as an operator convex counterpart of Kubo and Ando's theory of operator means. Among other results, integral expressions and axiomatization are discussed for our operator perspectives.
Let $σ$ be a non-trivial operator mean in the sense of Kubo and Ando, and let $OM_+^1$ the set of normalized positive operator monotone functions on $(0, \infty)$. In this paper, we study class of $σ$-subpreserving functions $f\in OM_+^1$ satisfying $$f(AσB) \le f(A)σf(B)$$ for all positive operators $A$ and $B$. We provide some criteria for $f$ to be trivial, i.e., $f(t)=1$ or $f(t)=t$. We also establish characterizations of $σ$-preserving functions $f$ satisfying $$f(AσB) = f(A)σf(B)$$ for all positive operators $A$ and $B$. In particular, when $\lim_{t\rightarrow 0} (1σt) =0$, the function $f$ preserves $σ$ if and only if $f$ and $1σt$ are representing functions for weighted harmonic means.
We improve the existing Ando-Hiai inequalities for operator means and present new ones for operator perspectives in several ways. We also provide the operator perspective version of the Lie-Trotter formula and consider the extension problem of operator perspectives to non-invertible positive operators.
Let $σ$ be an operator mean in the sense of Kubo and Ando. If the representation function $f$ of $σ$ satisfies $f_σ(t)^p\le f_σ(t^p) \text{ for all } p>1,$ then the operator mean is called a pmi mean. Our main interest is the class of pmi means (denoted by PMI). To study PMI, the operator mean $σ$, wherein $$f_σ(\sqrt{xy})\le \sqrt{f_σ(x)f_σ(y)}\quad (x,y>0)$$ is considered in this paper. The set of such means (denoted by GCV) includes certain significant examples and is contained in PMI. The main result presented in this paper is that GCV is a proper subset of PMI. In addition, we investigate certain operator-mean classes, which contain PMI.
We present several Ando-Hiai type inequalities for $n$-variable operator means for positive invertible operators. Ando-Hiai's inequalities given here are not only of the original type but also of the complementary type and of the reverse type involving the generalized Kantorovich constant.
We will consider about some inequalities on operator means for more than three operators, for instance, ALM and BMP geometric means will be considered. Moreover, log-Euclidean and logarithmic means for several operators will be treated.
We investigate the operator monotonicity of functions which was considered by V.E. Szabo.
