Jun 21, 2010 at 8:33 comment added Yemon Choi Hmm, I may have been careless here: I was just thinking of putting $A= U \vert A\vert$ and $B=V \vert B\vert$ for partial isometries $U$ and $V$, then ${\rm tr}(A^*B) = {\rm tr} (\vert A\vert U^*V \vert B\vert)$ -- but then I've overlooked the fact that $\vert A\vert \vert B\vert$ might not be positive... Will have to think about this more!
Jun 21, 2010 at 8:29 comment added Russel It is true $|tr(AB)|\leq tr(|AB|)$, but it is not true in general $tr(|AB|)\leq tr(|A| |B|)$.
Jun 21, 2010 at 8:19 comment added Matthew Daws I'm not seeing, right now, why $|tr(A^*B)|\leq tr(|A| |B|)$. Can you give a hint...
