Abstract

Abstract Let B(H) be the algebra of all bounded linear operators on a complex separable infinite dimensional Hilbert space H. In this paper we minimize the Schatten Cp-norm of suitable affine mappings from B(H) to Cp, using convex and differential analysis (Gâteaux derivative) as well as input from operator theory. The mappings considered generalize Penrose’s inequality which asserts that if A+ and B+ denote the Moore-Penrose inverses of the matrices A and B, respectively, then ||AXB − C||2 ≥ ||AA+CB+B − C||2, with A+CB+ being the unique minimizer of minimal ||:||2 norm. The main results obtained characterize the best Cp-approximant of the operator AXB.
