DRESHER'S INEQUALITY

Abstract

This note gives an elementary proof of the Dresher inequality, based on the Minkowski inequality and an inequality due to Radon. The Radon inequality is gotten easily by transforming the Holder inequality; thus Dresher's inequality is seen to be a melange of the Holder and Minkowski inequalities. It is appropriate to note here that Dresher's inequality is a generalization of an inequality due to Beckenbach.
