The well-known Hölder's inequality has been recently utilized as an essential tool for solving several optimization problems. However, such an essential role of Hölder's inequality does not seem to have been reported in the context of generalized entropy, including Rényi-Tsallis entropy. Here, we identify a direct link between Rényi-Tsallis entropy and Hölder's inequality. Specifically, we demonstrate yet another elegant proof of the Rényi-Tsallis entropy maximization problem. Especially for the Tsallis entropy maximization problem, only with the equality condition of Hölder's inequality is the -Gaussian distribution uniquely specified and also proved to be optimal.
著名的赫尔德不等式最近已被用作解决多个优化问题的重要工具。然而,在包括雷尼 - 蔡氏熵在内的广义熵背景下,赫尔德不等式的这一重要作用似乎尚未见报道。在此,我们确定了雷尼 - 蔡氏熵与赫尔德不等式之间的直接联系。具体而言,我们给出了雷尼 - 蔡氏熵最大化问题的又一个优美证明。特别是对于蔡氏熵最大化问题,仅在赫尔德不等式的等式条件下,-高斯分布才被唯一确定,并且也被证明是最优的。
