Abstract

It is shown that if A and B are operators on a separable complex Hilbert space and if ||| • ||| is any unitarily invariant norm, then

2||||A|p + |B|p ||| ≤||||A + B|p + |A B|p |||
2p1||||A|p + |B|p |||
for 2 p < , and
2p1||||A|p + |B|p ||| ≤||||A + B|p + |A B|p |||
2||||A|p + |B|p |||
for 0 < p 2. These inequalities are natural generalizations of some of the classical Clarkson inequalities for the Schatten p-norms. Generalizations of these inequalities to larger classes of functions including the power functions are also obtained.
