The cited article says it is used most often to compare two numbers on the number line by their size, and that the main types of inequality are less than and greater than, written with the signs for smaller and larger. As a form of theorem statement it asserts that one quantity is bounded above or below by another, and results of that kind, such as bounds on sums, products and integrals, are grouped under this concept rather than under a theorem that states an equality.InequalityConnectionsSourcesTake a Related QuizComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)InequalityFilter Results29 entriesBranchAllCoding Theory (1)Combinatorics (9)Computational Complexity Theory (1)Geometry (1)Graph Theory (16)Topic AreaAllCombinatorics of Computing and Classification (1)Enumerative, Additive and Algebraic Combinatorics (4)Graph Theory (14)Ramsey Theory and Extremal Combinatorics (8)ProvedAll1878 (1)1907 (1)1928 (1)1935 (2)1941 (2)1946 (1)1948 (1)1952 (1)1954 (1)1960 (2)1961 (3)1964 (1)1965 (1)1972 (1)1973 (1)1978 (1)1979 (1)1982 (1)1988 (1)2019 (1)Proved ByAllDésiré André (1)Emanuel Sperner (1)Endre Szemerédi (2)Hao Huang (1)Henryk Minc (1)John Adrian Bondy (1)Michel Balinski (1)Nicolaas Govert de Bruijn (1)Paul Erdos (4)Philip Hall (1)Pál Turán (1)R.
