Real Vector Spaces and the Cauchy-Schwarz Inequality in ACL2(r)

We present a mechanical proof of the Cauchy-Schwarz inequality in ACL2(r) and a formalisation of the necessary mathematics to undertake such a proof. This includes the formalisation of R^n as an inner product space. We also provide an application of Cauchy-Schwarz by formalising R^n as a metric spac...
