It is proved that |T|≤sec⁡(α)2Re(T)+U∗Re(T)U, for some unitary U∈Mn. As a consequence, we prove the following singular value inequalities sj(T)≤sec⁡(α)s[(j+1)/2](Re(T))for j=1,2,…,n, where [x] is the greatest integer ≤x. In the case where T∈M2n partitioned as T=T11T12T21T22,whereTij∈Mn, i,j=1,2, the following log-majorization inequality is proved ∏l=1ksl(Tij)≤seck⁡(α)∏l=1ksl1/2(Re(Tii))sl1/2(Re(Tjj)),i,j=1,2, for k=1,2,…,n. As a result, we get the following Hölder type inequality ∥|T12|r∥≤secr⁡(α)∥T11rp/2∥1/p∥T22rq/2∥1/q, for any unitarily invariant norm ∥⋅∥. Here, r,p and q are positive numbers such that 1/p+1/q=1. Related inequalities are also proved.
