Near-Optimal Bounds for Sketching the Schatten Norms

Let $k_{1,\varepsilon}(n)$ be the smallest number of real linear measurements needed by a randomized oblivious sketch that estimates the nuclear norm of every fixed real $n\times n$ matrix within a factor $1\pm\varepsilon$, with probability at least $2/3$. For every fixed $0<\varepsilon<1$, we prove \[ \frac{n^2}{(\log...
