Speaker: Rajendra Bhatia Affiliation: Indian Statistical Institute, Delhi Date: July 11 Time: 11:00 -- 12:00 Place: Aula Magna Title: The Bures-Wasserstein distance on positive definite matrices
Abstract: We will discuss an interesting metric on the space of positive definite matrices, called the Bures distance in the quantum information literature and the Wasserstein metric in optimal transport. This has connections with Riemannian geometry, statistics, QIT and optimal transport. We will explain these connections. The two-variable and several-variable mean with respect to this metric will be described. Our perspective from matrix analysis leads to simpler proofs and suggests new problems.
Ricordo che stamani alle 11:00 in Aula Magna del Dipartimento di Matematica ci sara' il seminario di Rajendra Bhatia
