    CauchySchwarz inequality (Modified Schwarz inequality for 2-positive maps [27]) — For a 2-positive map between C*-algebras, for all , in its domain, () ‖ ‖ (), ‖ ‖ ‖ ‖ ‖ ‖. Another generalization is a refinement obtained by interpolating between both sides of the CauchySchwarz inequality:

  3. Second moment method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_moment_method

    In some more difficult applications of the method, some ingenuity might be required in order to choose the random variables X n for which the argument can be carried through. The Paley–Zygmund inequality is sometimes used instead of the CauchySchwarz inequality and may occasionally give more refined results.

  6. Hölder's inequality - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hölder's_inequality

    The special case p = q = 2 gives a form of the CauchySchwarz inequality. [1] Hölder's inequality holds even if ‖ fg ‖ 1 is infinite, the right-hand side also being infinite in that case. Conversely, if f is in L p (μ) and g is in L q (μ), then the pointwise product fg is in L 1 (μ).

  7. QM-AM-GM-HM inequalities - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QM-AM-GM-HM_Inequalities

    There are three inequalities between means to prove. There are various methods to prove the inequalities, including mathematical induction, the CauchySchwarz inequality, Lagrange multipliers, and Jensen's inequality. For several proofs that GM ≤ AM, see Inequality of arithmetic and geometric means.

    In mathematics, the following inequality is known as Titu's lemma, Bergström's inequality, Engel's form or Sedrakyan's inequality, respectively, referring to the article About the applications of one useful inequality of Nairi Sedrakyan published in 1997, [1] to the book Problem-solving strategies of Arthur Engel published in 1998 and to the book Mathematical Olympiad Treasures of Titu ...

  9. Viktor Bunyakovsky - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viktor_Bunyakovsky

    He is credited with an early discovery of the CauchySchwarz inequality, proving it for the infinite dimensional case in 1859, many years prior to Hermann Schwarz's research on the subject. Bunyakovsky is an author of Foundations of the mathematical theory of probability (1846). [7] Bunyakovsky published around 150 research papers. [1]
