Abstract

We give an extension of Hua’s inequality for C*-valued norm in pre-Hilbert C*-modules setting. As its applications, some known and new generalizations of Hua’s inequality are deduced. In particular, we establish the connection between C*-valued norm triangle inequality and C*-valued norm Hua’s inequality. We also present some operator versions of Hua’s inequality on Hilbert spaces. As a consequence, we obtain various forms of Hua’s inequality. Moreover, we indicate that for our operator, Hua’s inequality is equivalent to operator convexity of a given continuous real function.
