  2. Cauchy–Schwarz inequality - Wikipedia

    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).

  3. Indicator function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indicator_function

    This identity is used in a simple proof of Markov's inequality. In many cases, such as order theory, the inverse of the indicator function may be defined. This is commonly called the generalized Möbius function, as a generalization of the inverse of the indicator function in elementary number theory, the Möbius function. (See paragraph below ...

  4. Poincaré inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poincaré_inequality

    In mathematics, the Poincaré inequality [1] is a result in the theory of Sobolev spaces, named after the French mathematician Henri Poincaré. The inequality allows one to obtain bounds on a function using bounds on its derivatives and the geometry of its domain of definition.

  5. Inequality (mathematics) - Wikipedia

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

    For instance, to solve the inequality 4x < 2x + 1 ≤ 3x + 2, it is not possible to isolate x in any one part of the inequality through addition or subtraction. Instead, the inequalities must be solved independently, yielding x < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ and x ≥ −1 respectively, which can be combined into the final solution −1 ≤ x < ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠.

  6. Grönwall's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grönwall's_inequality

    The inequality was first proven by Grönwall in 1919 (the integral form below with α and β being constants). [1] Richard Bellman proved a slightly more general integral form in 1943. [2] A nonlinear generalization of the Grönwall–Bellman inequality is known as Bihari–LaSalle inequality. Other variants and generalizations can be found in ...

  7. Fourier–Motzkin elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourier–Motzkin_elimination

    Since all the inequalities are in the same form (all less-than or all greater-than), we can examine the coefficient signs for each variable. Eliminating x would yield 2*2 = 4 inequalities on the remaining variables, and so would eliminating y. Eliminating z would yield only 3*1 = 3 inequalities so we use that instead.

  8. Inequation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inequation

    In mathematics, an inequation is a statement that an inequality holds between two values. [1] [2] It is usually written in the form of a pair of expressions denoting the values in question, with a relational sign between them indicating the specific inequality relation. Some examples of inequations are:

  9. Cancelling out - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cancelling_out

    Therefore, the 2y on both sides can be cancelled out, leaving 3 = 6y, or y = 0.5. This is equivalent to subtracting 2y from both sides. At times, cancelling out can introduce limited changes or extra solutions to an equation. For example, given the inequality ab ≥ 3b, it looks like the b on both sides can be cancelled out to give a ≥ 3 as ...
