On the complementary event, Holder inequality and the triangle inequality bound the preceding right-hand side by
which proves the stated prediction bound.
For the Dantzig selector, use the constraint . The Lasso KKT conditions make feasible, so a Dantzig minimizer has no larger norm. If were not the Lasso solution, uniqueness from invertibility of would imply that some active coordinate has strict signed KKT slack. For small , set
Only score coordinate changes, toward its feasible boundary, so remains feasible. For small , signs on the active coordinates do not change, and
by strict diagonal dominance. This contradicts Dantzig optimality, so the two estimators coincide.
A kernel for density estimation is a bounded nonnegative integrable function with . Its bandwidth- rescaling is , and the kernel density estimator is
Fix and put . Since vanishes outside ,

The diffusion term is nonnegative, while the Holder inequality bounds the right-hand side by . Consequently
On the finite-volume torus, norms increase to the essential supremum as . Hence the damped-vorticity maximum estimate gives

For , the Lasso objective has this prediction bound whenever . Compare its value at and , apply Holder inequality to the score, and use the triangle inequality. No restricted eigenvalue condition is required.
For a convergent continuous local martingale and , factor into and an ordinary exponential. Apply the Holder inequality and then the concave Jensen inequality to the fractional power . The displayed lower bound is informative when the terminal exponential moment is finite.
Expand moments of the inner sum and group equal power-sum differences. Their multiplicities are bounded by through the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality. Two applications of the Holder inequality yield a bound for containing and a product of short geometric-sum bounds over the moment differences. Thus a sharp mean-value estimate combines with rational approximation or spacing of the coefficients to prove cancellation. When all coefficients are integers, , so mean-value estimates alone cannot force cancellation.
If in , in , and , then
Indeed, split the difference into the weak pairing with and a term bounded by the Holder inequality using .
