Let $C$ be invertible on a nonzero finite-dimensional complex Hilbert space and let $p>1$ . There exist a positive definite operator $X$ of trace one and a unitary $U$ such that

|\operatorname{Tr}(X^{1-1/p}U^\dagger C)|=\|C\|_p,\qquad\|C\|_p=\bigl(\operatorname{Re}\operatorname{Tr}[(C^\dagger C)^{p/2}]\bigr)^{1/p}.

The powers use continuous functional calculus. Attainment permits a weighted interpolation estimate to be reduced to a scalar analytic trace family.
