Packet 7: Bonus 4
Young’s inequality is used to prove this other inequality, which reduces to the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality when “p equals q equals two.” For 10 points each:
[10h] Name this ubiquitous inequality in analysis, which states that the L1 (“L-one”) norm of “f times g” is less than or equal to “the Lp (“L-p”) norm of f” times “the Lq (“L-q”) norm of g,” where “one over p” plus “one over q” is one.
ANSWER: Hölder's inequality
[10m] The Riesz-Thorin theorem, which concerns this task for operators, is proved by using Hölder’s inequality with suitably chosen conjugate exponents. Runge’s phenomenon can arise when using polynomials for this task.
ANSWER: interpolation [or word forms like interpolating; prompt on estimation or imputation or word forms]
[10e] Hölder’s inequality is used to prove Minkowski’s inequality, which is this statement for Lp (“L-p”) spaces. For vectors x and y, this inequality states that the length of “x plus y” cannot exceed the sum of their individual lengths.
ANSWER: triangle inequality
