In this work we make a local study focused in the spectrum of the matrices that achieve the equality in those inequalities. As an application, we complete some previous results concerning Procustes problems for unitarily invariant norms in the manifold of positive definite matrices.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-02-08T00:12:50.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "positive definite matrices", "local extrema", "results concerning procustes problems", "majorization inequalities", "local study" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
