Proof of Clarkson's Inequality

Trying to find a proof for Clarkson's inequality, which states that if $2 \leq p < \infty$, then for any $f, g \in L^p$, we have that $$\left|\left|f+g\right|\right|_p^p + ...

Need help in showing that $F(x)/x^{1/q}$ goes to $0$ as $x$ goes to $0$ and $\infty$.

$1<p<\infty$, $f\in L^{p}(0,\infty)$, $p^{-1}+q^{-1}=1$, define $$F(x)=\int_{0}^{x}f(t)dt,$$ then I need to show that $\frac{F(x)}{x^{\frac{1}{q}}}\rightarrow 0$ as $x\rightarrow 0$ and ...

Extension of Fourier Transform

We know that Fourier transform $ \mathcal{F} : L^1 \rightarrow C_0 $ can be extended to $ \mathcal{F} : L^2 \rightarrow L^2 $ which forms a unitary isomorphism from Plancharel Theorem. Hence as for $ ...

convergence in measure does not imply weak convergence

Suppose $\sup_n\|f_n\|_1<\infty$ and $f_n\rightarrow f$ a.e.. However it is not necessary that $f_n\rightarrow f$ weakly in $L^1$. Can someone raise an example? Thanks in advance.
