In this work, the mixed Schwarz inequality for semi-Hilbertian space operators is proved. Namely, for every positive Hilbert space operator $A$. If $f$ and $g$ are nonnegative continuous functions on $\left[0,\infty\right)$ satisfying $f(t)g(t) =t$ $(t\ge0)$, then \begin{align*} \left| {\left\langle {T x,y} \right\rangle_A } \right| \le \left\| {f\left( {\left| T \right|_A x} \right)} \right\|_A \left\| {g\left( {\left| {T^{\sharp_A } } \right|_A y} \right)} \right\|_A \end{align*} for every Hilbert space operator $T$ such that the range of $T^* A$ is a subset in the range of $A$, such that $A$ commutes with $T$, and for all vectors $x,y\in \mathscr{H}$, where $\left| T \right|_A = \left(AT^{\sharp_A}T\right)^{1/2}$ such that $T^{\sharp_A}=A^\dagger T^*A$, where $A^\dagger$ is the Moore-Penrose inverse of $A$. Based on that, some inequalities for the $A$-numerical radius are introduced.
Let $A$ be a positive (semidefinite) operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and let $\mathbb{A}=\left(\begin{array}{cc} A & O O & A \end{array}\right).$ We obtain upper and lower bounds for the $A$-Davis-Wielandt radius of semi-Hilbertian space operators, which generalize and improve on the existing ones. We also obtain upper bounds for the $\mathbb{A}$-Davis-Wielandt radius of $2 \times 2$ operator matrices. Finally, we determine the exact value for the $\mathbb{A}$-Davis-Wielandt radius of two operator matrices $\left(\begin{array}{cc} I & X\\ 0 & 0 \end{array}\right)$ and $\left(…
New inequalities for the $A$-numerical radius of the products and sums of operators acting on a semi-Hilbert space, i.e. a space generated by a positive semidefinite operator $A$, are established. In particular, it is proved for operators $T$ and $S,$ having $A$-adjoint, that $$ ω_A(TS) \leq \frac{1}{2}ω_A(ST)+\frac{1}{4}\Big(\|T\|_A\|S\|_A+\|TS\|_A\Big),$$ where $ω_A(T)$ and $\|T\|_A$ denote the $A$-numerical radius and the $A$-operator seminorm of an operator $T$.
Let $A$ be a positive bounded operator on a Hilbert space $\big(\mathcal{H}, \langle \cdot, \cdot\rangle \big)$. The semi-inner product ${\langle x, y\rangle}_A := \langle Ax, y\rangle$, $x, y\in\mathcal{H},$ induces a seminorm ${\|\cdot\|}_A$ on $\mathcal{H}$. Let ${\|T\|}_A,\ w_A(T),$ and $c_A(T)$ denote the $A$-operator seminorm, the $A$-numerical radius, and the $A$-Crawford number of an operator $T$ in the semi-Hilbertian space $\big(\mathcal{H}, {\|\cdot\|}_A\big)$, respectively. In this paper, we present some seminorm inequalities and equalities for semi-Hilbertian space operators. More…
In this paper we introduce and prove some properties of $(α;β)$-normal operators according to semi-Hilbertian space structures. Furthermore we s,ate various inequalities between the A-operator norm and A-numerical radius of $(α,β)$-normal operators in semi Hilbertian spaces.
We give new inequalities for $A$-operator seminorm and $A$-numerical radius of semi-Hilbertian space operators and show that the inequalities obtained here generalize and improve on the existing ones. Considering a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and a non-zero positive bounded linear operator $A$ on $\mathcal{H},$ we show with among other seminorm inequalities, if $S,T,X\in \mathcal{B}_A(\mathcal{H})$, i.e., if $A$-adjoint of $S,T,X$ exist then $$2\|S^{\sharp_A}XT\|_A \leq \|SS^{\sharp_A}X+XTT^{\sharp_A}\|_A.$$ Further, we prove that if $T\in \mathcal{B}_A(\mathcal{H})$ then \begin{eqnarr…
Let $A$ be a positive bounded operator on a Hilbert space $\big(\mathcal{H}, \langle \cdot, \cdot\rangle \big)$. The semi-inner product ${\langle x, y\rangle}_A := \langle Ax, y\rangle$, $x, y\in\mathcal{H}$ induces a semi-norm ${\|\cdot\|}_A$ on $\mathcal{H}$. Let ${\|T\|}_A$ and $w_A(T)$ denote the $A$-operator semi-norm and the $A$-numerical radius of an operator $T$ in semi-Hilbertian space $\big(\mathcal{H}, {\|\cdot\|}_A\big)$, respectively. In this paper, we prove the following characterization of $w_A(T)$ \begin{align*} w_A(T) = \displaystyle{\sup_{α^2 + β^2 = 1}} {\left\|α\frac{T + T^…
In this survey, we shall present characterizations of some distinguished classes of Hilbertian bounded linear operators (namely, normal operators, selfadjoint operators, and unitary operators) in terms of operator inequalities related to the arithmetic-geometric mean inequality. For the class of all normal operators, we shall present new general characterizations.
Let $A$ be a positive bounded linear operator acting on a complex Hilbert space $\big(\mathcal{H}, \langle \cdot\mid \cdot\rangle \big)$. Let $ω_A(T)$ and ${\|T\|}_A$ denote the $A$-numerical radius and the $A$-operator seminorm of an operator $T$ acting on the semi-Hilbertian space $\big(\mathcal{H}, {\langle \cdot\mid \cdot\rangle}_A\big)$ respectively, where ${\langle x\mid y\rangle}_A := \langle Ax\mid y\rangle$ for all $x, y\in\mathcal{H}$. In this paper, we show that \begin{equation*}\label{m1} \tfrac{1}{4}\|T^{\sharp_A} T+TT^{\sharp_A}\|_A\le ω_A^2\left(T\right) \le \tfrac{1}{2}\|T^{\sh…
The Cauchy-Schwarz, Buzano and Kre\uın inequalities are three inequalities about inner product. The main goal of this article is to present refinements of Buzano and Cauchy-Schwarz inequalities, and to present a new proof of a refined version of a Kre\uın-type inequality. Applications that include Buzano-type inequalities for certain operators, operator norm and numerical radius inequalities of Hilbert space operators will be presented.
We present sharp lower bounds for the A-numerical radius of semi-Hilbertian space operators. We also present an upper bound. Further we compute new upper bounds for the $B$-numerical radius of $2 \times 2$ operator matrices where $B = \textit{diag}(A,A)$, $A$ being a positive operator. As an application of the A-numerical radius inequalities, we obtain a bound for the zeros of a polynomial which is quite a bit improvement of some famous existing bounds for the zeros of polynomials.
We prove an inequality for unitarily invariant norms that interpolates between the Arithmetic-Geometric Mean inequality and the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality.
Let ($\mathcal{H}, \langle . , .\rangle )$ be a complex Hilbert space and $A$ be a positive bounded linear operator on it. Let $w_A(T)$ be the $A$-numerical radius and $\|T\|_A$ be the $A$-operator seminorm of an operator $T$ acting on the semi-Hilbertian space $(\mathcal{H}, \langle .,.\rangle_A),$ where $\langle x, y\rangle_A:=\langle Ax, y\rangle$ for all $x,y\in \mathcal{H}$. In this article, we establish several upper and lower bounds for $B$-numerical radius of $2\times 2$ operator matrices, where $B=\begin{bmatrix} A & 0 0 & A \end{bmatrix}$. Further, we prove some refinements of earlie…
In this work, a refinement of the Cauchy--Schwarz inequality in inner product space is proved. A more general refinement of the Kato's inequality or the so called mixed Schwarz inequality is established. Refinements of some famous numerical radius inequalities are also pointed out. As shown in this work, these refinements generalize and refine some recent and old results obtained in literature. Among others, it is proved that if $T\in\mathscr{B}\left(\mathscr{H}\right)$, then \begin{align*} ω^{2}\left(T\right) &\le \frac{1}{12} \left\| \left| T \right|+\left| {T^* } \right|\right\|^2 + \frac{1…
The main goal of this work is to present new matrix inequalities of the Cauchy-Schwarz type. In particular, we investigate the so-called Lieb functions, whose definition came as an umbrella of Cauchy-Schwarz-like inequalities, then we consider the mixed Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. This latter inequality has been influential in obtaining several other matrix inequalities, including numerical radius and norm results. Among many other results, we show that \[\left\| T \right\|\le \frac{1}{4}\left( \left\| \left| T \right|+\left| {{T}^{*}} \right|+2\mathfrak RT \right\|+\left\| \left| T \right|+\le…
Let $\mathbb{A}=\left( \begin{array}{cc} A & 0 \\ 0 & A \\ \end{array} \right)$ be the $2\times2$ diagonal operator matrix determined by a positive bounded operator $A$. For semi-Hilbertian operators $X$ and $Y$, we first show that \begin{align*} w^2_{\mathbb{A}}\left(\begin{bmatrix} 0 & X \\ Y & 0 \end{bmatrix}\right) &\leq \frac{1}{4}\max\Big\{{\big\|XX^{\sharp_A} + Y^{\sharp_A}Y\big\|}_{A}, {\big\|X^{\sharp_A}X + YY^{\sharp_A}\big\|}_{A}\Big\} + \frac{1}{2}\max\big\{w_{A}(XY), w_{A}(YX)\big\}, \end{align*} where $w_{\mathbb{A}}(\cdot)$, ${\|\cdot\|}_{A}$ and $w_{A}(\cdot)$ are the $\mathbb{…
Reverses of Schwarz, triangle and Bessel inequalities in inner product spaces that improve some earlier results are pointed out. They are applied to obtain new Gruss type inequalities in inner product spaces. Some natural applications for integral inequalities are also pointed out.
In this paper we obtain some new Schwarz related inequalities in inner product spaces over the real or complex number field. Applications for the generalized triangle inequality are also given.
New reverses of the Schwarz, triangle and Bessel inequalities in inner product spaces are pointed out. These results complement the recent ones obtained by the author in an earlier paper. Further, they are employed to establish new Gruss type inequalities. Finally, some natural integral inequalities are stated as well.
The purpose of this survey is to give a comprehensive introduction to some classes of classical and recent analytic inequalities in Inner Product Spaces.
We prove two new reverse Cauchy--Schwarz inequalities of additive and multiplicative types in a space equipped with a positive sesquilinear form with values in a C*-algebra. We apply our results to get some norm and integral inequalities. As a consequence, we improve a celebrated reverse Cauchy--Schwarz inequality due to G Polya and G. Szego.
The notion of a unitary realization is used to estimate derivatives of arbitrary order of functions in the Schur-Agler class on the polydisk and unit ball.
In this work, an extension of the generalized mixed Schwarz inequality is proved. A companion of the generalized mixed Schwarz inequality is established by merging both Cartesian and Polar decompositions of operators. Based on that some numerical radius inequalities are proved.
The main aim of this monograph is to survey some recent results obtained by the author related to reverses of the Schwarz, triangle and Bessel inequalities. Some Gruss' type inequalities for orthonormal families of vectors in real or complex inner product spaces are presented as well. Generalizations of the Boas-Bellman, Bombieri, Selberg, Heilbronn and Pecaric inequalities for finite sequences of vectors that are not necessarily orthogonal are also provided. Two extensions of the celebrated Ostrowski's inequalities for sequences or real numbers and the generalization of Wagner's inequality in…
Refinements of some recent reverse inequalities for the celebrated Cauchy-Bunyakovsky-Schwarz inequality in 2-inner product spaces are given. Using this framework, applications for determinantal integral inequalities are also provided.
In this paper, more inequalities between the operator norm and its numerical radius, for the class of normal operators, are established. Some of the obtained results are based on recent reverse results for the Schwarz inequality in Hilbert spaces due to the author.
In this work, an improvement of Hölder-McCarty inequality is established. Based on that, several refinements of the generalized mixed Schwarz inequality are obtained. Consequently, some new numerical radius inequalities are proved. New inequalities for numerical radius of $n\times n$ matrix of Hilbert space operators are proved as well. Some refinements of some earlier results were proved in literature are also given. Some of the presented results are refined and it shown to be better than earlier results were proved in literature.
In this article, we present several inequalities treating operator means and the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. In particular, we present some new comparisons between operator Heron and Heinz means, several generalizations of the difference version of the Heinz means and further refinements of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. The techniques used to accomplish these results include convexity and Löwner matrices.
We study the Cauchy--Schwarz and some related inequalities in a semi-inner product module over a $C^*$-algebra $\A$. The key idea is to consider a semi-inner product $\A$-module as a semi-inner product $\A$-module with respect to another semi-inner product. In this way, we improve some inequalities such as the Ostrowski inequality and an inequality related to the Gram matrix. The induced semi-inner products are also related to the the notion of covariance and variance. Furthermore, we obtain a sequence of nested inequalities that emerges from the Cauchy--Schwarz inequality. As a consequence, w…

Let $ϕ$ be a linear map from the $n\times n$ matrices ${\mathcal M}_n$ to the $m\times m$ matrices ${\mathcal M}_m$. It is known that $ϕ$ is $2$-positive if and only if for all $K\in {\mathcal M}_n$ and all strictly positive $X\in {\mathcal M}_n$, $ϕ(K^*X^{-1}K) \geq ϕ(K)^*ϕ(X)^{-1}ϕ(K)$. This inequality is not generally true if $ϕ$ is merely a Schwarz map. We show that the corresponding tracial inequality ${\rm Tr}[ϕ(K^*X^{-1}K)] \geq {\rm Tr}[ϕ(K)^*ϕ(X)^{-1}ϕ(K)]$ holds for a wider class of positive maps that is specified here. We also comment on the connections of this inequality with vario…
For a given bounded positive (semidefinite) linear operator $A$ on a complex Hilbert space $\big(\mathcal{H}, \langle \cdot\mid \cdot\rangle \big)$, we consider the semi-Hilbertian space $\big(\mathcal{H}, \langle \cdot\mid \cdot\rangle_A \big)$ where ${\langle x\mid y\rangle}_A := \langle Ax\mid y\rangle$ for every $x, y\in\mathcal{H}$. The $A$-numerical radius of an $A$-bounded operator $T$ on $\mathcal{H}$ is given by \begin{align*} ω_A(T) = \sup\Big\{\big|{\langle Tx\mid x\rangle}_A\big|\,; \,\,x\in \mathcal{H}, \,{\langle x\mid x\rangle}_A= 1\Big\}. \end{align*} Our aim in this paper is t…
In this paper, we prove a discrete version of the generalized Riesz inequality on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. As a consequence, we will derive the extended Hardy-Littlewood and Pólya-Szegö inequalities. We will also establish cases of equality in the latter. Our approach is totally novel and self-contained. In particular, we invented a definition for the discrete rearrangement in higher dimensions. Moreover, we show that the definition "suggested" by Pruss does not work. We solve a long-standing open question raised by Alexander Pruss in [Pru98, p494], Duke Math Journal, and discussed with him in several …
We prove an identity for sesquilinear maps from the Cartesian square of a vector space to a geometric mean closed Archimedean (real or complex) vector lattice, from which the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality follows. A reformulation of this result for sesquilinear maps with a geometric mean closed semiprime Archimedean (real or complex) $f$-algebra as codomain is also given. In addition, a sufficient and necessary condition for equality is presented. We also prove the Hölder inequality for weighted geometric mean closed Archimedean (real or complex) $Φ$-algebras, improving results by Boulabiar and To…
In this paper we introduce the notion of weak 2-positivity and present some examples. We establish some operator Cauchy--Schwarz inequalities involving the geometric mean and give some applications. In particular, we present some operator versions of Hua's inequality by using the Choi--Davis--Jensen inequality.
Let S be a Sobolev or Orlicz-Sobolev space of functions not necessarily vanishing at the boundary of the domain. We give sufficient conditions on a nonnegative function in S in order that its spherical rearrangement ("Schwartz symmetrization") still belongs to S. These results are obtained via relative isoperimetric inequalities and somewhat generalize a well-known Polya-Szego's theorem. We also prove that the rearrangement of any function in S is locally in S.
