Some Refinements of Selberg Inequality and Related Results

Abstract

This paper introduces several refinements of the classical Selberg inequality, which is considered a significant result in the study of the spectral theory of symmetric spaces, a central topic in the field of symmetry studies. By utilizing the contraction property of the Selberg operator, we derive improved versions of the classical Selberg inequality. Additionally, we demonstrate the interdependence among well-known inequalities such as Cauchy–Schwarz, Bessel, and the Selberg inequality, revealing that these inequalities can be deduced from one another. This study showcases the enhancements made to the classical Selberg inequality and establishes the interconnectedness of various mathematical inequalities.
