A Perturbation Inequality for the Schatten-p Quasi-Norm and Its Applications to Low-Rank Matrix Recovery [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
In this paper, we establish the following perturbation result concerning the singular values of a matrix: Let $A,B {\}in {\}mathbb\{R\}{\textasciicircum}\{m{\}times n\}$ be given matrices, and let $f:{\}mathbb\{R\}_+{\}rightarrow{\}mathbb\{R\}_+$ be a concave function satisfying $f(0)=0$. Then, we have $$ \sum_\i=1\\textasciicircum\\min\\m,n\\\ \big\textbar f(\sigma_i(A)) - f(\sigma_i(B)) \big\textbar \le \sum_\i=1\\textasciicircum\\min\\m,n\\\ f(\sigma_i(A-B)), $$ where ${\}sigma_i({\}cdot)$ denotes the $i$–th largest singular value of a matrix. This answers an open question that is of interest to both the compressive sensing and linear algebra communities. In particular, by taking $f({\}cdot)=({\}cdot){\textasciicircum}p$ for any $p {\}in (0,1]$, we obtain a perturbation inequality for the so–called Schatten $p$–quasi–norm, which allows us to confirm the validity of a number of previously conjectured conditions for the recovery of low–rank matrices via the popular Schatten $p$–quasi–norm heuristic. We believe that our result will find further applications, especially in the study of low–rank matrix recovery.
