Abstract

In 1998 A. M. Bikchentaev conjectured that for positive τ-measurable operators a and b affiliated with a semifinite von Neumann algebra, the operator b 1/2 ab 1/2 is submajorized by the operator ab in the sense of Hardy-Littlewood. We prove this conjecture in its full generality and obtain a number of consequences for operator ideals, Golden-Thompson inequalities, and singular traces.
