If either upper norm bound is nonpositive, there are no admissible functions with , and the assertion is vacuous. For positive , chooseSplitting the integral givesFor finite , Holder inequality bounds the last term by . HenceFor , the corresponding bound is . Thus an explicit choice proving the strict inequality isThis is a nonvanishing level-set bound between three Lp norms: the lower- bound prevents diffuse low-amplitude mass, and the higher- bound prevents arbitrarily concentrated spikes.
