Abstract
In this article, we study a generalization of the n-inner product which we name weak n-inner product. As particular case, we consider the n-iterated 2-inner product and we give its representation in terms of the standard k-inner products, \(k\le n\), using the Dodgson’s identity for determinants. Finally, we present several applications, including a brief characterization of a linear regression model for the random variables in discrete case and a generalization of the Chebyshev functional using the n-iterated 2-inner product.
