## A functional generalization of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality and some subclasses.(English)Zbl 1173.26323

Summary: A functional generalization of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality is presented for both discrete and continuous cases and some of its subclasses are then introduced. It is also shown that many well-known inequalities related to the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality are special cases of the inequality presented.
