Let $R$ be a prime ring, $Q_r$ its right Martindale quotient $L$ non-central Lie ideal of $R$, $n\geq 1$ fixed integer, $F$ and $G$ two generalized skew derivations with the same associated automorphism, $p\in R$ element. If $p\bigl(F(x)F(y)-G(y)x\bigr)^n=0$, for any $x,y \in L$, then there exist $a,c\in Q_r$ such that $F(x)=ax$ $G(x)=cx$, $x\in R$, $pa=pc=0$, unless when satisfies standard pol...

with equality if and only if f and g are proportional. For p <0, we assume that f(x), g (x) >0. An (almost) improvement of Minkowski’s inequality, for p Î R\{0}, is obtained in the following Theorem: Theorem 1.2 Let f(x), g(x) ≥ 0 and p >0, or f(x), g(x) >0 and p <0. Let s, t Î R\{0}, and s ≠ t. Then (i) Let p, s, t Î R be different, such that s, t >1 and (s t)/(p t) >1. Then ∫ (f (x)+g(x))pdx ...
