Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality #
Cauchy-Schwarz inequality for L² real-valued functions.
For integrable functions f, g in L²(μ): |∫ f·g dμ| ≤ (∫ f² dμ)^(1/2) · (∫ g² dμ)^(1/2)
This is Hölder's inequality specialized to p = q = 2. We derive it from the nonnegative version by observing that |∫ f·g| ≤ ∫ |f|·|g| and |f|² = f².
Lp Norm Connections and Convergence #
Connection between L¹ Bochner integral and eLpNorm.
For integrable real-valued functions, the L¹ norm (eLpNorm with p=1) equals the ENNReal coercion of the integral of absolute value.
This bridges the gap between Real-valued integrals (∫ |f| ∂μ : ℝ) and ENNReal-valued Lp norms (eLpNorm f 1 μ : ℝ≥0∞), which is essential for applying mathlib's convergence in measure machinery.
L² convergence implies L¹ convergence for uniformly bounded functions.
On a probability space, if fₙ → g in L² and the functions are uniformly bounded, then fₙ → g in L¹.
This follows from Cauchy-Schwarz: ∫|f - g| ≤ (∫(f-g)²)^(1/2) · (∫ 1)^(1/2) = (∫(f-g)²)^(1/2)
This lemma provides the key bridge between the Mean Ergodic Theorem (which gives L² convergence) and applications requiring L¹ convergence (such as ViaL2's Cesàro average convergence).
