Can the trace be computed in any Schauder basis?

I'm cross-posting this question from Math.SE, as it didn't get much attention there. Let $H$ be a separable Hilbert space and $T \in L(H)$ a trace-class operator. It is well known that the trace of $T$...

Equality condition for Araki–Lieb–Thirring inequality

I'd like to have the equality condition in the Araki–Lieb–Thirring inequality $$\operatorname{Tr} [(BAB)^r]\leq \operatorname{Tr} [(B^{r}A^{r}B^{r})],$$ valid for $A,B$ semidefinite positive and $r\...

Is there a vector-valued trace such that $\text{tr}((L\otimes_π\text{id}_H)T)=LT$ for all $L∈\mathfrak L(H,\mathfrak L(H))$ and $T∈H\hat\otimes_πH$?

Let $H$ be a separable $\mathbb R$-Hilbert space $L\in\mathfrak L(H,\mathfrak L(H,\mathbb R))$ $T\in\mathfrak L(H)$ be nonnegative, self-adjoint and nuclear (trace-class) Note that$^1$ $$\...

Every self-adjoint trace class operator on $L^2$ has integral kernel

I have asked this question on MSE but did not receive an answer. I thought I could try it here. Let $T$ be a self-adjoint trace-class operator on $L^2(\mathbb{R})$. Is is true that it can be ...

Nuclear vs Integral operators on Hilbert spaces

Consider the Hilbert space $L_2=L_2[0,1]$. Is it true that for each nuclear (trace-class) operator on $L_2$ there exists a function $K\in L_1(L_2)$ such that $$Tf = \int\limits_0^1 K(s) f(s) \,\mu(\...
