From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In mathematics the Levinson's inequality is the following inequality involving positive numbers: Let a > 0 and f be a given function having a third derivative on the range ]0,2a[, and such that
for all . If
for every
and 0 < p,
we have

The Ky Fan inequality is the special case of Levinson's inequality where
and
- f(x) = logx.
