this inequalite is the same that this Cauchy's Inequality ?? because i learn that Cauchy's Inequality is the same that Cauchy–Schwarz and Cauchy–Schwarz-(other name) -- Gamma 15:20, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

Yes it is but I don't understand the notation on this page. I wrote a new page using conventional notation and concepts. --Matt Westwood 16:02, 1 January 2009 (UTC)


I'm not sure about the original exposition of this. I believe there's a misunderstanding as to the meaning of $\left\|{x}\right\|$ because the usual statement of it is $\left|{\left \langle {x, y} \right \rangle}\right| \le \left\|{x}\right\| \times \left\|{y}\right\|$.

More explanation is needed as to the precise meaning of all objects involved, because at the moment it's not at all solid. --Matt Westwood 19:46, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Vectors

Under which version of the C-S inequality does this form fall under? Is it implied in one of the guys up, or does it need to be added?

\(\displaystyle \) \(\displaystyle \) \(\displaystyle \) \(\displaystyle \vert \mathbf{x} \cdot \mathbf{y} \vert\) \(\le\) \(\displaystyle \vert \vert \mathbf{x} \vert \vert \ \vert \vert \mathbf{y} \vert \vert\) \(\displaystyle \) \(\displaystyle \) \(\displaystyle \)                    

for $\mathbf{x}$, $\mathbf{y} \in \R^n$.

The dot product is an inner product on $\R^n$; hence you can consider it under the (semi-)inner product space version. --Lord_Farin 02:07, 27 February 2012 (EST)
Alternatively, you could take Cauchy's inequality with $1\le i \le n$. --Lord_Farin 02:09, 27 February 2012 (EST)
