I want to estimate the integral $$\int k(x,y)f(y)dy$$assuming the fact that $k(x,y), f(y)$ are in $L^p, L^q$ respectively. But I want to bound the the whole integral in $L^r$, $r\in [1,\infty]$.

I tried using Hölder but I am not given any more information. Even if I could apply Hölder then I always get confused on introducing $r$. I know its quite easy but I think a small hint could do if I have to apply Hölder.

Thanks!

    Is there a link between $p,q$ and $r$ or not?2012-11-22

    @Davide Giraudo : This is a question thrown out by my classmate. I think $p^{-1}+q^{-1}=1$ should be the criteria right ?? If thats the case can you give me a small hint to apply Hölder inequality ??2012-11-22

    @Davide Giraudo : if $r=1$ then i would apply it straight forward, but if r is not $1$ i get often confused in choosing the right exponents .2012-11-22

    Maybe the relationship is $\frac 1r=\frac 1p+\frac 1q$.2012-11-22

    @DavideGiraudo : Sir, I am pretty sure i was just told that $r\in[1,\infty]$, and had no relation with $p$ and $q$.2012-11-22

    There is a generalized Hölder inequality: for $p,q,r\in[1,\infty)$, with $\frac{1}{p}+\frac{1}{q}=\frac{1}{r}$, we have $||fg||_{r}\leq||f||_{p}||g||_{q}$.2012-11-22

    @DavideGiraudo : The exact question is to show that $T_K:=L^p \to L^q$ is bounded . where, $k(x,.)\in L^q$ and $f \in L^p$. and the map is defined as above .2012-11-23
