\section{Basic Properties}
\label{section:lp-basic}
\begin{definition}[$\mathcal{L}^p$ Spaces]
\label{definition:lp-unequivalence}
Let $(X, \cm, \mu)$ be a measure space, $E$ be a normed vector space, $f: X \to E$ be strongly measurable, and $p \in [1, \infty)$, then $f$ is \textbf{$p$-integrable} if
\[
\norm{f}_{L^p(X; E)} = \norm{f}_{L^p(\mu; E)} = \norm{f}_{L^p(X, \cm, \mu; E)} = \braks{\int \norm{f}_E^p d\mu}^{1/p} < \infty
\]
The set $\mathcal{L}^p(X; E) = \mathcal{L}^p(\mu; E) = \mathcal{L}^p(X, \cm, \mu; E)$ is the space of all $p$-integrable functions on $X$.
\end{definition}
\begin{definition}[Essential Supremum]
\label{definition:esssup}
Let $(X, \cm, \mu)$ be a measure space, $E$ be a normed vector space, and $f: X \to E$ be strongly measurable, then $f$ is \textbf{essentially bounded} if
\[
\norm{f}_{L^\infty(X; E)} = \norm{f}_{L^\infty(\mu; E)} = \norm{f}_{L^\infty(X, \cm, \mu; E)} = \inf\bracs{\alpha \ge 0|\mu(\bracs{f > \alpha}) = 0} < \infty
\]
In which case, $\norm{f}_{L^\infty(X; E)}$ is the \textbf{essential supremum} of $f$.
\end{definition}
\begin{definition}[Hölder conjugates]
\label{definition:holder-conjugates}
Let $p, q \in (1, \infty)$, then $p$ and $q$ are \textbf{Hölder conjugates} if
\[
\frac{1}{p} + \frac{1}{q} = 1
\]
\end{definition}
\begin{lemma}
\label{lemma:holder-conjugate-gymnastics}
Let $p, q \in (1, \infty)$ be Hölder conjugates, then:
\begin{enumerate}
\item $q = p/(p - 1)$.
\item $p = q(p - 1)$.
\end{enumerate}
\end{lemma}
\begin{theorem}[Hölder's Inequality, {{\cite[6.2]{Folland}}}]
\label{theorem:holder}
Let $(X, \cm, \mu)$ be a measure space, $E, F$ be a normed vector spaces, $p, q \in [1, \infty]$. If $p, q$ are Hölder conjugates or if $p = 1$ and $q = \infty$, then for any $f \in \mathcal{L}^p(X; E)$ and $g \in \mathcal{L}^q(X; F)$,
\[
\int \norm{f}_E \norm{g}_F d\mu \le \norm{f}_{L^p(X; E)}\norm{g}_{L^q(X; F)}
\]
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
First suppose that $p = 1$ and $q = \infty$. In this case,
\[
\int \norm{f}_E \norm{g}_F d\mu \le \norm{g}_{L^\infty(X; F)}\int \norm{f}_Ed\mu = \norm{f}_{L^1(X; E)}\norm{g}_{L^\infty(X; F)}
\]
Now suppose that $p, q \in (1, \infty)$ are Hölder conjugates. Assume without loss of generality that $\norm{f}_{L^p(X; E)} = \norm{g}_{L^q(X; F)} = 1$. By Young's inequality (\ref{lemma:young-inequality}),
\[
\int \norm{f}_E \norm{g}_F d\mu \le \int \frac{\norm{f}_E^p}{p} + \frac{\norm{g}_F^q}{q} d\mu = \frac{1}{p}\int \norm{f}_E d\mu + \frac{1}{q}\int \norm{g}_F^q d\mu = 1
\]
\end{proof}
\begin{theorem}[Minkowski's Inequality, {{\cite[6.5]{Folland}}}]
\label{theorem:minkowski}
Let $(X, \cm, \mu)$ be a measure space, $E$ be a normed space, $p \in [1, \infty]$, and $f, g \in \mathcal{L}^p(X; E)$, then
\[
\norm{f + g}_{L^p(X; E)} \le \norm{f}_{L^p(X; E)} + \norm{g}_{L^p(X; E)}
\]
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
If $p = 1$, then the theorem holds directly.
If $p = \infty$, then for any $\alpha > \norm{f}_{L^\infty(X; E)}$ and $\beta > \norm{g}_{L^\infty(X; E)}$, $\alpha + \beta \ge f + g$ $\mu$-almost everywhere, so
\[
\norm{f + g}_{L^\infty(X; E)} \le \norm{f}_{L^\infty(X; E)} + \norm{g}_{L^\infty(X; E)}
\]
Now suppose that $p \in (1, \infty)$, then $p = q(p - 1)$, and
\begin{align*}
\norm{f + g}_E^p &\le (\norm{f}_E + \norm{g}_E)\norm{f + g}_E^{p - 1} \\
\int\norm{f + g}_E^pd\mu &\le (\norm{f}_{L^p(X; E)} + \norm{g}_{L^p(X; E)})\braks{\int \norm{f + g}_E^{q(p - 1)}d\mu}^{1/q} \\
\int\norm{f + g}_E^pd\mu &\le (\norm{f}_{L^p(X; E)} + \norm{g}_{L^p(X; E)})\braks{\int \norm{f + g}_E^{p}d\mu}^{1/q} \\
\braks{\int\norm{f + g}_E^pd\mu}^{1/p} &\le \norm{f}_{L^p(X; E)} + \norm{g}_{L^p(X; E)}
\end{align*}
\end{proof}
\begin{definition}[$L^p$ Space]
\label{definition:lp}
Let $(X, \cm, \mu)$ be a measure space, $E$ be a normed space, and $p \in [1, \infty]$, then $\norm{\cdot}_{L^p(X; E)}$ is a seminorm on $\mathcal{L}^p(X; E)$. The quotient
\[
L^p(X, \cm, \mu; E) = \mathcal{L}^p(X, \cm, \mu; E)/\bracs{f|f = 0\text{ a.e.}}
\]
is a normed vector space, known as the $E$-valued \textbf{$L^p$ space} on $(X, \cm, \mu)$.
\end{definition}
\begin{proof}
By Minkowski's Inequality (\ref{theorem:minkowski}).
\end{proof}
\begin{proposition}
\label{proposition:lp-simple-dense}
Let $(X, \cm, \mu)$ be a measure space, $E$ be a normed space, and $p \in [1, \infty)$, then $\Sigma(X, \cm; E) \cap L^p(X; E)$ is dense in $L^p(X; E)$.
\end{proposition}
\begin{proof}
Let $f \in L^p(X; E)$. By \ref{definition:strongly-measurable}, there exists $\seq{f_n} \subset \Sigma(X, \cm; E)$ such that $\norm{f_n}_E \le \norm{f}_E$ and $\norm{f_n - f}_E \to 0$ pointwise as $n \to \infty$.
For each $n \in \nat$, $\norm{f_n}_E \le \norm{f}_E$, so $\norm{f_n}_{L^p(X; E)} \le \norm{f}_{L^p(X; E)} < \infty$, and $\norm{f_n - f}_E \le 2\norm{f}_E$. By the Dominated Convergence Theorem (\ref{theorem:dct}),
\[
\limv{n}\int \norm{f_n - f}_E^p d\mu = \int \limv{n}\norm{f_n - f}_E^p d\mu = 0
\]
Therefore $\norm{f_n - f}_{L^p(X; E)} \to 0$ as $n \to \infty$.
\end{proof}
