Inequalities
Triangular Inequalities
$ \vert a_1 \vert - \vert a_2 \vert \leqq \vert a_1 +a_2 \vert \leqq \vert a_1 \vert + \vert a_2 \vert $
$ \vert a_1 + a_2 + \cdots + a_n \vert \leqq \vert a_1 \vert + \vert a_2 \vert + \cdots + \vert a_n \vert $
Cauchy-schwarz Inequality
$ \vert a_1 b_1 + a_2b_2 + \cdots + a_nb_n \vert ^2 \leqq \left ( \vert a_1 \vert ^2 + \vert a_2 \vert ^2 + \cdots + \vert a_n \vert ^2 \right ) \left ( \vert b_1 \vert ^2 + \vert b_2 \vert ^2 + \cdots + \vert b_n \vert ^2 \right ) $
$ \mbox{ The equality is valid if and only if } a_1/b_1 = a_2/b_2 = \cdots = a_n/b_n $
Inequalities Involving Arithmetic, Geometric and Harmonic
$ \mbox{ if } A, \ G \mbox{ and } H \mbox{ are arithmatic, geometric and harmonic means of a positive numbers } a_1 , a_2 ,\cdots , a_n, \mbox{ then } $
$ H \leqq G \leqq A $
$ A = \frac{a_1 + a_2 + \cdots + a_n}{n} \qquad \qquad G = \sqrt[n]{a_1a_2 \cdots a_n} \qquad \qquad \frac{1}{H} = \frac{1}{n} \left ( {1 \over a_1} + {1 \over a_2 }+ \cdots +{1 \over a_n } \right ) $
$ \mbox{ the equality occures only if } a_1 = a_2 =\cdots = a_n. $
Holder Inequality
$ \vert a_1 b_1 + a_2b_2 + \cdots + a_nb_n \vert \leqq \left ( \vert a_1 \vert ^p + \vert a_2 \vert ^p + \cdots + \vert a_n \vert ^p \right ) ^{1/p} \left ( \vert b_1 \vert ^q + \vert b_2 \vert ^q + \cdots + \vert b_n \vert ^q \right ) ^{1/q} $
$ {1 \over p} + {1 \over q} = 1 \qquad \qquad p > 1. q > 1 $
$ \vert a_1 \vert ^{p-1} / \vert b_1 \vert = \vert a_2 \vert ^{p-1} / \vert b_2 \vert = \cdots =\vert a_n \vert ^{p-1} / \vert n_1 \vert . \mbox{ for } p=q=2 \mbox{ , the formula reduces to Cauchy-Shwartz Inequality} $
