Fractional reverse direction Cauchy-Schwarz inequality

If $Z_1,\dots,Z_r$ are complex $m\times m$-matrices, then let $\Phi(A_1,\dots,A_r):M_m(\mathbb{C})\rightarrow M_m(\mathbb{C})$ be the linear mapping defined by $\Phi(A_1,\dots,A_r)(X)=A_1XA_1^*+\dots+...

Is the rank preserved when the spectral radius is maximized?

If $A$ is a matrix, then let $\rho(A)$ denote the spectral radius of $A$. If $A=(a_{i,j})_{i,j}$, then let $\overline{A}=(\overline{a_{i,j}})_{i,j}$. Suppose that $A_1,\dots,A_r\in M_{n}(\mathbb{C})$ ...

An inequality for the spectral radius of block matrices

Let $d,m$ be positive integers. Suppose that $A_{i,j}$ is a $d\times d$-matrix with real entries whenever $i,j\in\{1,\dots m\}$. Let $A$ be the $dm\times dm$ matrix that can be written as a block ...

Case of equality in entrywise spectral radius bound

Let $A,B$ denote square matrices such that $\lvert A_{ij}\rvert\le B_{ij}$ for all $i,j$, and denote the spectral radius by $\rho$. From the Gelfand spectral radius formula it is easy to see that $$\...
