Positivity of Matrices with Generalized Matrix Functions

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Using an elementary fact on matrices we show by a unified approach the positivity of a partitioned positive semidefinite matrix with each square block replaced by a compound matrix, an elementary symmetric function or a generalized matrix function. In addition, we present a refined version of the Thompson determinant compression theorem. © 2012 Institute of Mathematics, Academy of Mathematics and Systems Science, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Chinese Mathematical Society and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.
