The projection constant for the trace class

We study the projection constant of the space of operators on n-dimensional Hilbert spaces with the trace norm S 1 (n).We show an integral formula for the projection constant of S 1 (n); namely, (S 1 (n)) = n U n |tr(U )| dU , where the integration is with respect to the Haar probability measure on the group U n of unitary operators.Using a probabilistic approach, we derive the limit formula lim n (S 1 (n))/n = /2.

Abstract

We study the projection constant of the space of operators on n-dimensional Hilbert spaces with the trace norm S 1 (n).We show an integral formula for the projection constant of S 1 (n); namely, (S 1 (n)) = n U n |tr(U )| dU , where the integration is with respect to the Haar probability measure on the group U n of unitary operators.Using a probabilistic approach, we derive the limit formula lim n (S 1 (n))/n = /2.
