Abstract

First we present various scalar inequalities that extends the classical Cauchy–Schwarz and Kantorovich inequalities. Some of these extensions are based on the moment problem and the Hölder and Minkowski inequalities. These results are then extended to the matrix case. Many well-known inequalities are recovered ans new ones are obtained.
