Some trace inequalities for exponential and logarithmic functions

Consider a function F(X,Y ) of pairs of positive matrices with values in the positive matrices such that whenever X and Y commute F(X,Y ) = XpYq. Our first main result gives conditions on F such that Tr[X log(F(Z,Y ))] ≤Tr[X(p log X + q log Y )] for all X,Y,Z such that TrZ = TrX. (Note that Z is abs...
