Intuitive proof of Golden-Thompson inequality
Sutter et al. [1] in their paper "Multivariate Trace Inequalities" give an intuitive proof of the following Golden-Thompson inequality:
For any hermitian matrices $A,B$:
$$
\text{tr}(\exp{(A+B)}) \...

Lower bound on the sum of singular values for a sum of Hermitian matrices
Denote the eigenvalues of an $n\times n$ matrix $\mathbf{X}$ by $\lambda_i(\mathbf{X})$ and its singular values by $\sigma_i(\mathbf{X})$, $i=1,\ldots,n$. When $\mathbf{X}$ is Hermitian, we know that $...
