A function `phi: (a,b) -> RR` is called convex if `AA 0 <= lambda <= 1, a < x <= y < b` `phi(lambda x + (1-lambda)y <= lambda phi(x) + (1-lambda)phi(y)` (chords rorate counterclockwise). Or equivalently ` (phi(x_2) - phi(x_1))/(x_2-x_1) <= (phi(x_3) - phi(x_2))/(x_3-x_2)` for `a < x_1 < x_2 < x_3 < b`.
- left (`phi_-^'`) and right (`phi_+^'`) derivatives exist and are finite
- and are both non-decreasing
- `phi'(x)` exists except on countable set of discontinuity points
- for any `a < c < d < b`, `|phi(x) - phi(y)| <= K|x-y|` for some `K in RR`, aka uniform continuity over every subinterval
- `a < x, x < b`, `phi(x) - phi(c) => phi_+^'(c)(x-c)` and `phi(x) - phi(c) => phi_-^'(c)(x-c)`
If `phi` is twice differentiable on `(a,b)`, and `phi''(x) >= 0` then `phi` is convex.
- `sum p_i exp(a_i) >= exp(sum p_i a_i)`
- arithmetric sum `>=` geometric sum

`L^p` spaces
`L^p` is a vector space. Usual metric is `d_p(f,g) = ||f-g||_p`. If `f` is equivalent to `g` if `f=g "ae" (mu)`. Partitions `L^p(mu)`. Forms a complete metric space.Dual spaces
`1 <= p < oo`, `1/p + 1/q = 1`, `g in L^q(mu)`, `T_g(f) = int fg du`, `f in L^p(mu)`. Clearly `T_g` is linear, and such a function `L^p(mu) -> RR` is called a *linear functional- bounded if `EE c in (0, oo)` st. `|T(f)| <= |c| ||f||_p`
- the norm of a linear functional is defined as `||T|| = spr{ |Tf|: f in L^p(mu), ||f||_p = 1}`
- `|T_g(f)| <= ||g||_q ||f||_p` by Holder’s inequality
- `T_g` is uniformly continuous of the metric space `(L^p(mu), d_p)`.
The set of all conitunous linear functional on `L^p(mu)` is called the dual space of `L^p(mu)` and denoted `L^p(mu)^**`.

Banach and Hilbert spaces
Banach spces
A Banach space is a complete normed vector space. All `L^p(mu)` spaces are Banach spaces. A closed subspace of a Banach space is also a Banach space.
A norm must satisfy:
- `v_1, v_2 in V => ||v_1 + v_2|| <= ||v_1|| + ||v_2||`
- `alpha in RR, v in V => ||alpha v|| = |alpha| ||v||`
- `||v|| = 0 iff v = 0`.
A linear transformation is a function `f: V_1 -> V_2` if `a_1, a_2 in RR, x,y in V_1 => T(alpha_1 x + alpha_2 y) = alpha_1 T(x) + alpha_2 T(y)`.
Hilbert spaces
A vector space is a real innerproduct space if `EE f: V xx V -> RR`, denoted by `f(x,y) = (:x,y:)`, that satisfies:
- `(: x,y :) = (: y,x :) AA x,y in V`
- `(: alpha_1 x_1, alpha_2 x_2 :) = alpha_1 (: x_1, y :) + alpha_2 (: x_2, y :)`
- `(: x,x :) >= 0 AA x in V`, equality `iff x = 0`
A Hilbert space is a complete real inner product space. Every Hilbert space is a `L^2(Omega, F, mu)` space for some `(Omega, F, mu)`. Called separable if `EE` dense countable subset.
Orthogonal vectors `x _|_ y iff (: x, y :) = 0`. Orthnormal if `||x|| = 1`. If `B sub H` is orthogonal and `H` is separable, then `B` is at most countable. Can convert any set to an orthonormal set using Gram-Schmidt organalisation.
The fourier coefficients of a vector `x in V` wrt ON `B sub V` is `{(:x, b:): b in B}`.
Bessel’s inequality: `{b_i}_{i>=1}` ON in an IPS `(V, (: *, * :))`, `AA x in V sum (: x, b_i :)^2 <= ||x||^2`.
Following are equivalent:
- `B` is complete
- `B` is maximal (ie. `B sub B' => B = B'`
- `B` is an ON basis for `H` (the linear space of `B` is dense in `H`)
- `AA x EE {b_i}_{i>=1} sub B => ||x||^2 = sum (: x, b_i :)^2`
Riesz representation theorem: `H` a separable Hilbert space, then every bounded linear functional `T: H -> RR` can be represented as `T ~= T_(x_0) = (: y, x_0 :)` for some `x_0 in V`.
