245B, Notes 3: Lp Spaces
by Terence Tao · UCLA (What's new, 245B)
Graduate lecture notes from Tao's UCLA real analysis course treating Lp spaces as the model example of normed vector spaces: quasi-norms, Minkowski and Hölder inequalities, completeness as Banach spaces, density of simple functions, and Lp duality, with embedded exercises.
