Abstract
In the literature, there are many criteria to generalize the concept of a numerical radius; one of the most recent and interesting generalizations is the so-called generalized Euclidean operator radius, which reads: for all Hilbert space operators . Simply put, it is the numerical radius of multivariable operators. This study establishes a number of new inequalities, extensions, and generalizations for this type of numerical radius. More precisely, by utilizing the mixed Schwarz inequality and the extension of Furuta’s inequality, some new refinement inequalities are obtained for the numerical radius of multivariable Hilbert space operators. In the case of , the resulting inequalities could be considered extensions and generalizations of the classical numerical radius.

1. Introduction
Let be the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators defined on a complex Hilbert space with the identity operator in .
The numerical range of a bounded linear operator T on a Hilbert space is the image of the unit sphere of under the quadratic form associated with an operator. More precisely, we set
Additionally, the numerical radius is defined by
We recall that the usual operator norm of an operator T is
It is well known that defines an operator norm on , which is equivalent to the operator norm . Moreover, the following inequalities hold:
for any , and these inequalities are sharp.
It is known that is a norm on , but it is not unitarily invariant. However, the numerical radius norm is weakly unitarily invariant, i.e., for all partial isometries U. Additionally, let us not miss the chance to mention the important property that and for every .
Denote as the absolute value of the operator T. Then, we have
It is well known that the numerical radius is not submultiplicative, but the following inequality holds:
for all . In particular, if T and S commute, then
Moreover, if T and S are normal, then is submultiplicative, i.e.,
For other related inequalities regarding the numerical radius, the reader is recommended to refer to [1,2,3].
In 2009, Popescu [4] introduced the concept of the Euclidean operator radius of an n-tuple . Namely, for , the Euclidean operator radius of is defined by
Indeed, the Euclidean operator radius was generalized in [5] as follows:
If , then (also denoted by ) is called the Rhombic numerical radius, which has been studied in [6]. The following case is of particular interest: . In fact, the generalized operator radius is a natural generalization of the concept of a numerical radius. Since the progress in this area is rapidly increasing, we recommend the recent results concerning the numerical radius and norm inequalities [7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19] and the references therein, where other related results are discussed as well.
We note that in the case of , the generalized Euclidean operator radius is defined as
Thus, the following inequalities hold:
for all . This fact follows with Jensen’s inequality applied for the function , which is log-convex and decreasing for all .
On the other hand, let us recall the following Jensen inequality:
which holds for every finite sequence of positive real numbers and . Hence, by setting for all , we obtain
Taking the supremum over all unit vectors , we get
Combining the inequalities (2) and (3), we obtain
More generally, in the power mean inequality
for all , if we choose for all , then we have
Taking the supremum over all unit vectors , we obtain
for all . Indeed, one can refine (3) by applying the following Jensen inequality:
which is obtained from a more general result for superquadratic functions [20]. For more results about operator inequalities involving superquadratic functions, see [1,15,16,17,21,22].
Thus, by setting in (6), we obtain
Taking the supremum again over all unit vectors , we obtain
which gives
The obtained bound refines the right-hand side of (4). Clearly, all the above-mentioned inequalities generalize and refine some inequalities obtained in [23]. For recent inequalities, counterparts, refinements, and other related properties concerning the generalized Euclidean operator radius, the reader may refer to [4,5,6,23,24,25,26,27,28].
In this work, inequalities for the generalized operator radius are presented. Our proofs are based on the Dragomir extension of the Furuta inequality and the mixed Schwarz inequality (or the so-called Kato inequality) for Hilbert space operators in . It is proved that our obtained results extend and refine the inequalities given in [5,23,26,27]. In fact, the presented inequalities generalize and extend those given in [5,23], particularly.
2. Bounds for the Generalized Euclidean Operator Radius
Before stating our main results, some useful lemmas on standard inequalities are necessary to present.
Lemma 1.
The inequalities below hold [29].
- 1.

- 2.
- The Power-Young inequality:for all and with and all .
Lemma 2.
(The McCarthy inequality) [30] Let , then
for any unit vector . This inequality was refined and improved in the recent work [1].
Lemma 3.
If , and such that then for (), the following inequality holds [31]:
where . In particular, if , then
For , it is reduces to
In 1994, Furuta [32] proved the following generalization of Kato’s inequality (3):
for any and with .
Dragomir in [33] generalized the inequality (11) for any with . Indeed, as noted by Dragomir, the condition was assumed by Furuta to fit with the Heinz–Kato inequality, which reads as follows:
for any and where A and B are positive operators, such that and for any .
In the same work [33], Dragomir provides a useful extension of Furuta’s inequality, described as follows:
for any and any vectors . The equality in (12) holds if the vectors and are linearly dependent in . For other closely related versions of Kato’s inequality and its refinements, see [1,3,10,28,34,35,36,37,38].
2.1. Basic Properties of the Generalized Euclidean Operator Radius
Moslehian et al. [23] mention without proofs the following properties of the generalized Euclidean operator radius:

Despite the fact that the authors in [23] mentioned the above basic properties of the generalized Euclidean operator radius, it seems they missed some other important properties rather than leaving these properties without proof. Sometimes, it is nice to elucidate the proof of these elementary facts. As a result, we are going to give proof of each property. Clearly, the first two properties follow from the definition of the generalized Euclidean operator radius. In what follows, some classical properties are presented.

4. Concluding Remarks
In this paper, we have established numerous inequalities based on the generalized Euclidean operator radius, dealing with multivariable operators. Some of them extend and improve well-known numerical radius inequalities in the literature. We hope that the results and the diverse mathematical strategy will find applications in diverse mathematical areas dealing with operators. A possible direction is the fractal–wavelet analysis (see [39,40]).
