The Minkowski Inequality states that if r>s is a nonzero real number, then for any positive numbers a_{ij}, the following holds: \left(\sum_{j=1}^{m}\left(\sum_{i=1}^{n}a_{ij}^r\right)^{s/r}\right)^{1/s}\geq \left(\sum_{i=1}^{n}\left(\sum_{j=1}^{m}a_{ij}...

Notice that if either r or s is zero, the inequality is equivalent to Holder's Inequality.
