Let C p be the Schatten p-class for p > 0. Generalizations of the parallelogram law for the Schatten 2-norms have been given in the following form: If A = {A 1 , A 2 , . . . , A n } and B = {B 1 , B 2 , . . . , B n } are two sets of operators in C 2 , then n i,j=12010 Mathematics Subject Classification.
