The definition of Affine Invariant Riemannian Metric (AIRM)

For any two symmetric positive definite (SPD) matrices $A$ and $B$, the Affine Invariant Riemannian Metric (AIRM) between them is defined as [1], [2]:



$d(A,B)=||log (A^{-1/2}B A^{-1/2}) ||_F$,



where $log(A)$ is the matrix logrithm of $A$, and $||A||_F$ is the Frobenius norm of $A$.



On the other hand, it is also shown that (e.g., see [3])



$d(A,B)=||log (A^{-1/2}B A^{-1/2}) ||_F = ||log (A^{-1}B) ||_F$.



However, when I used Matlab function logm, I found that $||log (A^{-1/2}B A^{-1/2}) ||_F ne ||log (A^{-1}B) ||_F$ at all (but their eigenvalues are the same).



I was wondering if there is anything wrong with my understanding the definition of AIRM?



Thanks very much!
