The commutator function-approximation conjecture for operator monotone functions

About 3 years old · traced to

Let CL⁡∥ ⁣∥ ⁣∥⋅∥ ⁣∥ ⁣∥([0,∞))\operatorname{CL}_{\lVert\!\lVert\!\lVert\cdot\rVert\!\rVert\!\rVert}([0,\infty)) denote the class of commutator-Lipschitz functions for the chosen unitarily invariant norm, and define

E~f(c)=inf⁡g∈CL⁡∥ ⁣∥ ⁣∥⋅∥ ⁣∥ ⁣∥([0,∞))(sup⁡x≥0(f−g)(x)−inf⁡x≥0(f−g)(x)+c∥ ⁣∥ ⁣∥g∥ ⁣∥ ⁣∥CL⁡([0,∞))).\widetilde E_f(c)=\inf_{g\in\operatorname{CL}_{\lVert\!\lVert\!\lVert\cdot\rVert\!\rVert\!\rVert}([0,\infty))}\left(\sup_{x\geq0}(f-g)(x)-\inf_{x\geq0}(f-g)(x)+c\lVert\!\lVert\!\lVert g\rVert\!\rVert\!\rVert_{\operatorname{CL}([0,\infty))}\right).

Let ff be a non-negative function that is operator monotone on [0,∞)[0,\infty). The commutator function-approximation conjecture. For every c>0c>0,

E~f(c)≤Cf(c)\widetilde E_f(c)\leq Cf(c)

with C=1C=1. This conjecture is presented as a sufficient reduction for the desired commutator inequality; its resolution is not stated in the supplied excerpt.
