Let $d\geqslant 2$ be an integer and consider a convergent sequence of "companion" matrices $$A_k := \begin{pmatrix} a_{k,1} & a_{k,2} & \cdots & a_{k,d} \\\ & ...

I was wondering if the Hölder's inequality was true for matrix induced norms, i.e. if $$\|AB\|_1 \leq \|A\|_p\|B\|_q, \quad\forall p,q \in [1,\infty] \text{ s.t. } \tfrac{1}{p}+\tfrac{1}{q} = 1.$$ But ...

Let $A \in \mathbb{R}^{m\times n}$ and $p,q \in \mathbb{R}^{+}$ such that $\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}=1$. I am interested to prove the following: $$ \|A\|_{p}=\|A^T\|_q$$ I have tried using Holder ...

The setup is as in this question: Given a norm $N$ over ${\bf M}_n(\mathbb C)$, it is a natural question to find the best constant $C_N$ such that $$N([A,B])\le C_N N(A)N(B),\qquad\forall A,B\in{\bf M}...

I was given an open problem as a birthday present recently. While I can probably handle spoilers at this point, what I really want are literature and other references. Also acceptable would be ...

Assumptions Let $L_p(x,y)=(\sum_i|x_i - y_i|^p)^{1/p}$ (Minkowski metric), $a,b$ be arbitrary $n$-dimensional points, $c$ be a point that satisfies $L_p(a,b) = L_p(a,c) + L_p(c,b)$, i.e., a point ...
