If I multiply the coefficients of a trace-class operator with bounded complex numbers is it still trace class?

Suppose that $T \in TC(l^2( \mathbb{Z}))$ is trace class. Consider its kernel $ T(i,j) = \langle e_i, T e_j \rangle $ where $ \{e_i\}_{i \in \mathbb{Z}}$ is an ONB for $l^2( \mathbb{Z})$. Now, ...

Norm and trace inequalities

If $A$ and $B$ are two positive definite matrices such that $\|A\| \leq \|B\|$ for every unitarily invariant norm $\| \cdot \|$, and $U$ is an $n\times k$ matrix with adjoint $V$ such that $VU = I_k$, ...

solving trace norm equality [closed]

Problem Formulation under what conditions can we solve $\mathrm{trace}(\mathbf{AB})=0$ ? or more specifically, when will $\mathrm{trace}(\mathbf{AB})=0$ implies that $\mathrm{trace}(\mathbf{B})=0$. ...
