Useful inequalities
From Maths
Here is a list of useful inequalities:
Inequality | Name | Conditions |
---|---|---|
[math]\sum^n_{i=1}a_ib_i\le\sqrt{\sum^n_{k=1}a_i^2}\sqrt{\sum^n_{i=1}b_i^2}[/math] | Cauchy-Schwarz inequality | For [math]a_1,...,a_n,b_1,...,b_n\in\mathbb{R}[/math] |
[math]\left(\sum^n_{i=1}|a_i+b_i|^p\right)^\frac{1}{p}\le\left(\sum^n_{i=1}|a_i|^p\right)^\frac{1}{p}+\left(\sum^n_{i=1}|b_i|^p\right)^\frac{1}{p}[/math] | Minkowski's inequality | For [math]p\ge 1[/math] and [math]a_1,...,a_n,b_1,...,b_n\in\mathbb{R}[/math] |
