Extension of a result of Haynsworth and Hartfiel

Abstract

About last 70s, Haynsworth [6] used a result of the Schur complement to refine a determinant inequality for positive definite matrices. Haynsworth's result was improved by Hartfiel [5]. We extend their result to a larger class of matrices, namely, matrices whose numerical range is contained in a sector. Our proof relies on a number of new relations for the Schur complement of this class of matrices.
