SUMMARY:BZ Seminar in Analysis: Eric Carlen (Rutgers)
DESCRIPTION:A linear map T from the space of n by n matrices to the space o
 f m by m matrices is a Schwarz map in case T(A^*A) - T(A)^*T(A) is positiv
 e semidefinite. Evidently every such map T is positive\, but not all posit
 ive maps are Schwarz maps. On the other hand\, every quantum Markov map (c
 ompletely positive with T(I) = I) is a Schwarz map but again\, the inclusi
 on is strict.\\r\\nThis talk will present joint work with Mueller-Hermes a
 nd Zhang in which duality is exploited to give simple proofs of known and 
 new  inequalities for Schwarz maps. It will be shown how these yield cele
 brated convexity and concavity theorems\, such as those of Lieb and Epstei
 n as simple corollaries.  The ideas may be applied in a more elaborate op
 erator algebra setting\, but by presenting them in the matrix algebra sett
 ing\, the talk will require no specialized knowledge as background.
