  2. Inequality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inequality_(mathematics)

    The feasible regions of linear programming are defined by a set of inequalities. In mathematics, an inequality is a relation which makes a non-equal comparison between two numbers or other mathematical expressions. [1] It is used most often to compare two numbers on the number line by their size.

    where , is the inner product.Examples of inner products include the real and complex dot product; see the examples in inner product.Every inner product gives rise to a Euclidean norm, called the canonical or induced norm, where the norm of a vector is denoted and defined by ‖ ‖:= , , where , is always a non-negative real number (even if the inner product is complex-valued).

  4. Complex equality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complex_equality

    Complex equality is a theory of justice outlined by Michael Walzer in his 1983 work Spheres of Justice. It is considered innovative because of its emphasis on the broader conceptualization of distribution, which covers not only tangible goods but also abstract goods such as rights. [ 1 ]

  5. Estimation lemma - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimation_lemma

    In mathematics the estimation lemma, also known as the ML inequality, gives an upper bound for a contour integral. If f is a complex -valued, continuous function on the contour Γ and if its absolute value | f ( z ) | is bounded by a constant M for all z on Γ , then

  6. Hölder's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hölder's_inequality

    Hölder's inequality is used to prove the Minkowski inequality, which is the triangle inequality in the space L p (μ), and also to establish that L q (μ) is the dual space of L p (μ) for p ∈ [1, ∞). Hölder's inequality (in a slightly different form) was first found by Leonard James Rogers .

  7. List of inequalities - Wikipedia

    Bennett's inequality, an upper bound on the probability that the sum of independent random variables deviates from its expected value by more than any specified amount Bhatia–Davis inequality , an upper bound on the variance of any bounded probability distribution

  8. Cauchy's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cauchy's_inequality

    Cauchy's inequality may refer to: the Cauchy–Schwarz inequality in a real or complex inner product space Cauchy's estimate , also called Cauchy's inequality, for the Taylor series coefficients of a complex analytic function

  9. Minkowski inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minkowski_inequality

    The reverse inequality follows from the same argument as the standard Minkowski, but uses that Holder's inequality is also reversed in this range. Using the Reverse Minkowski, we may prove that power means with p ≤ 1 , {\textstyle p\leq 1,} such as the harmonic mean and the geometric mean are concave.
