Operator monotone function
The operator monotone function is an important type of real-valued function, first described by Charles Löwner in 1934.[1] It is closely allied to the operator concave and operator concave functions, and is encountered in operator theory and in matrix theory, and led to the Löwner–Heinz inequality.[2][3]
