Exercise · ZW-MINKOWSKI-INEQUALITY-002 · ★☆☆ Basic
For which values of \(p\) does the Minkowski inequality hold?
Choose one option.
Show answer
- D. For all \(p \ge 1\)
Explanation
The statement holds for all \(p\ge 1\), not just for one specific value or for exponents below 1.
Review the concept: Minkowski inequality
Inequality stating that the \(L^p\) norm of a sum of functions is at most the sum of their \(L^p\) norms, for \(p \ge 1\).
\[\|f+g\|_p \le \|f\|_p + \|g\|_p\]
