Orthonormal Family in a Hilbert Space

If we have an orthonormal family, $\{u_n\}_{i=1}^\infty$ in a Hilbert Space $H$, I need to show that for $x\in H$ we have the following inequality: $$\left|\left\{n|\langle x, u_n \rangle > ...

Proving an inequality with Cauchy-Schwarz

In the "User's guide to viscosity solutions" by Crandall, Ishii and Lions (link), they make the following claim (inequality (A.4) p. 58) : Given $x$, $\xi$ $\in \mathbb{R}^n$, $A \in \cal{S}(n)$ ...

How to prove Halmos’s Inequality

How to prove Halmos’s Inequality? If $A$ and $B$ are bounded linear operators on a Hilbert space such that $A$, or $B$, commutes with $AB-BA$ then $$\|I-(AB- BA)\|\ge 1.$$ I found it from ...

Contexts For Bessel's Inequality?

Bessel's inequality appears to be about orthonormal sequences. But (in the context of inner product spaces), I've thought of this inequality as being a demonstration that the hypotenuse of triangles ...
