Striking result of Vybíral [51] says that Schur product of positive matrices is bounded below by the size of the matrix and the row sums of Schur product. Vybíral used this result to prove the Novak's conjecture. In this paper, we define Schur product of matrices over arbitrary C^*-algebras and derive the results of Schur and Vybíral. As an application, we state C^*-algebraic version of Novak's conjecture and solve it for commutative unital C^*-algebras. We formulate Pólya-Szegő-Rudin question for the C^*-algebraic Schur product of positive matrices.

In this paper, we study duality in the absolute Schur algebras that were first introduced in [1] and extended in [5]. This is done in a way analogous to the classical Schatten's Theorem on the Banach space $B(l_2)$ of bounded linear operators on $l_2$ involving the duality relation among the class of compact operators K, the trace class $C_1$ and $B(l_2)$. We also study the reflexivity in such the algebras.
