ABSTRACT
Lawson and Lim showed that the Karcher equation for positive invertible operators on a Hilbert space has a unique solution using the method of the implicit function theorem of a Banach space. In this paper, in the framework of the operator inequality, we show the equivalence of the unique solution of the Karcher equation and the self-adjointness of the Karcher mean. For this, we reform the notion of the operator power means of negative order by virtue of the Tsallis relative operator entropy of negative order.
