Inequalities and limits of weighted spectral geometric mean (2109.00351v2)

Abstract: We establish some new properties of spectral geometric mean. In particular, we prove a log majorization relation between $\left(B^{ts/2}A^{(1-t)s}B^{ts/2} \right)^{1/s}$ and the $t$-spectral mean $A\natural_t B :=(A^{-1}\sharp B)^{t}A(A^{-1}\sharp B)^{t}$ of two positive semidefinite matrices $A$ and $B$, where $A\sharp B$ is the geometric mean, and the $t$-spectral mean is the dominant one. The limit involving $t$-spectral mean is also studied. We then extend all the results in the context of symmetric spaces of negative curvature.
