Lower estimation for trace of a product

26 Views Asked by At

Let $X\succ0$ and $Q$ are square real matrices.

For $Q\succ0$ we have the estimation $$ {\rm Tr}(XQ)\succeq{\rm Tr}(X)\lambda_{\min}(Q). $$ Is it possible to obtain the similar lower estimation for (nonzero) positive-semidefinite matrix $Q\succeq 0$?
