Some trace monotonicity properties and applications

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We present some results on the monotonicity of some traces involving functions of self-adjoint operators with respect to the natural ordering of their associated quadratic forms. The relation between these results and Löwner's Theorem is discussed. We also apply these results to complete a proof of the Wegner estimate for continuum models of random Schrödinger operators as given in a 1994 paper by Combes and Hislop.
