Generalization of trace norm identity

137 Views Asked by At

Given a $2\times 2$ complex matrix $M$, the sum of its singular values (i.e. the trace norm) can be written as: $$\mathrm{Tr}\,|M|=\sqrt{\mathrm{Tr}(M^\dagger M)+2|\mathrm{Det}(M)|}$$ Is anyone aware of a generalization of this formula for higher dimensional square matrices?
