Abstract

For an n-by-n matrix A, let w(A) and ‖A‖ denote its numerical radius and operator norm, respectively. The following three inequalities, each a strengthening of w(A)≤‖A‖, are known to hold: w(A)2≤(‖A‖2+w(A2))/2, w(A)≤(‖A‖+‖A21/2)/2, and w(A)≤(‖A‖+w(Δt(A)))/2 (0≤t≤1), where Δt(A) is the generalized Aluthge transform of A. In this paper, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions in terms of the operator structure of A for which the inequalities become equalities.
