One parameter generalization of BW inequality and its application to open quantum dynamics (2208.10005v1)

Published 22 Aug 2022 in math.QA, math-ph, and math.MP

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a one parameter generalization of the famous B\"ottcher-Wenzel (BW) inequality in terms of a $q$-deformed commutator. For $n \times n$ matrices $A$ and $B$, we consider the inequality [ \Re\langle[B,A],[B,A]_q\rangle \le c(q) |A|2 |B|2, ] where $\langle A,B \rangle = {\rm tr}(A*B)$ is the Hilbert-Schmidt inner product, $|A|$ is the Frobenius norm, $[A,B] =AB-BA$ is the commutator, and $[A,B]_q =AB-qBA$ is the $q$-deformed commutator. We prove that when $n=2$, or when $A$ is normal with any size $n$, the optimal bound is given by [ c(q) = \frac{(1+q) +\sqrt{2(1+q2)}}{2}. ] We conjecture that this is also true for any matrices, and this conjecture is perfectly supported for $n$ up to $15$ by numerical optimization. When $q=1$, this inequality is exactly BW inequality. When $q=0$, this inequality leads the sharp bound for the $r$-function which is recently derived for the application to universal constraints of relaxation rates in open quantum dynamics.
