Chebyshev's Inequality - Integral Chebyshev Inequality

Integral Chebyshev Inequality

There is a second (less well known) inequality also named after Chebyshev

If f, g : → R are two monotonic functions of the same monotonicity, then

If f and g are of opposite monotonicity, then the above inequality works in the reverse way.

This inequality is related to Jensen's inequality, Kantorovich's inequality, the Hermite–Hadamard inequality and Walter's conjecture.

Famous quotes containing the words integral and/or inequality:

    Self-centeredness is a natural outgrowth of one of the toddler’s major concerns: What is me and what is mine...? This is why most toddlers are incapable of sharing ... to a toddler, what’s his is what he can get his hands on.... When something is taken away from him, he feels as though a piece of him—an integral piece—is being torn from him.
    Lawrence Balter (20th century)

    A man willing to work, and unable to find work, is perhaps the saddest sight that fortune’s inequality exhibits under this sun.
    Thomas Carlyle (1795–1881)
