Let A and B be positive semidefinite matrices of the same size. Using a trace inequality of Ando, Hiai, and Okubo, we prove that parallel to B1-t A(2t-1) B1-t + A(1-t )B(2t-1) A(1-t) parallel to(2) <= parallel to A + B parallel to(2) for t is an element of [1/2, 3/4], where parallel to.parallel to(2) denotes the Hilbert-Schmidt norm. This gives an affimative answer to a question posed by Hayajneh and Kittaneh regarding an open question of Bourin in the case of the Hilbert-Schmidt norm.
