Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality for a Positive Semidefinite Quadratic Form on
lemmaAnalysisLinear Algebralem:psd-cauchy-schwarz-rn-2026aLet be a natural number with , let be the real numbers with the order of its ordered field structure, and let be a symmetric positive semidefinite real matrix. On Euclidean space , a real vector space by Euclidean Space is a Real Vector Space, write for the dot product, for the matrix-vector product, and for the origin. For write for . Let .
Then the following hold.
1. (Symmetry of the form) .
2. (Cauchy-Schwarz)
3. (Null vectors) If , then .
