As a byproduct, we prove that balls maximize any Schatten $p$-norm of $T_\\Omega$ for $p>1$ (and minimize the corresponding quasinorm for $p<1$), and that the second eigenvalue is maximized by a particular annulus. Moreover, we extend some of these results to general radial symbols in $L^p(\\mathbb{C})$, with $p > 1$, characterizing those that maximize the sum of the first $K$ eigenvalues. We also show a symmetry breaking phenomenon for the second eigenvalue, when the assumption of circular symmetry is dropped.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2025-06-20T07:43:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "fock space", "partial sums", "toeplitz eigenvalues", "isoperimetric inequality", "circular symmetry" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 25, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
