Given vectors and (or functions f(x) and g(x)) we define the Hölder Quotient Hpq by

or in case of functions by

Here ‖·‖p and ‖·‖q are the usual Lp and Lq norms. We assume throughout that

If p and q are both greater than one then they are positive but if we allow p and q to be less than one then one of them must be positive and the other one must be negative. This may cause a problem if for example, some value ai is zero and p is negative. In this case we use the convention that and
