Cauchy InequalityA special case of the Hölder Sum Inequality with ,
| (1) |
where equality holds for . In 2-D, it becomes
| (2) |
It can be proven by writing
| (3) |
If is a constant , then . If it is not a constant, then all terms cannot simultaneously vanish forReal , so the solution is Complex and can be found using theQuadratic Equation
| (4) |
In order for this to be Complex, it must be true that
| (5) |
with equality when is a constant. The Vector derivation is much simpler,
| (6) |
where
